| Where is Your Turntable? Mine is between the speakers and behind them, directly in the middle on a light weight, rigid stand. Take a look.Funny you mention the other room option. That is exactly what happened to Ivor before he designed the LP12. It might not be your cup o... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Swampwalker,Make no mistake about it. Being the spouse of a cancer patient is probably worse than having the disease. I can only think of those poor souls who's children are stricken with this madness and I'm so thankful I'm not in that postion. I... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Last week was spent with a couple of old friends from the Midwest that came out to just hang around. We went to one of our audio club meetings and everyone seemed to enjoy my guests. Two nights were spent listening to live blues at my favorite wat... | |
| Carbon Fiber Brushes I agree with Dopogue. I've been using AIVS since Beta testing. No ill effect on my old Decca brush. This makes me wonder if the method of setting bristles in the newer brushes is the culprit. | |
| Best Neil Young Album? Marco, I won't hold your post against you. Otherwise it's nice to know I'm not the only Neil Young fan here. It's very hard for me to pick a favorite but I'd have to go with either Harvest or Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere. My favorite song is "C... | |
| Carbon Fiber Brushes My original Decca carbon fiber brush is still going strong nearly twenty years later. I wonder how they make them have such a short life span. Very interesting. | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Geez, you guys are the best. Tom, I'll decline on the kind offer. I have a perfect 901 which I plan on using at some point. Your Cotter would have been plug and play. I really don't want to maybe have Barb sort out things that need to be returned.... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Paul,You can blame me for anything as long as she believes it. No problem there at all. he he.I posted my system today and was disappointed to see that they no longer appear on the "new today" page. bummer. Check it out guys. | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Some days I feel like I'm running around with a big question mark tatooed to my forehead. I just can't understand why good fortune, considering the circumstances, continues to rain down on me. Here's the deal. My oncologist had persuaded me to try... | |
| Teres vs VPI, SME, Origin Live, etc. This thread has been interesting on a variety of levels. I've learned that no matter how hard you try to do something right others will criticize it. About the only thing I didn't get smoked on was my opinion of the Illustrious. The Teres project ... | |
| Teres vs VPI, SME, Origin Live, etc. Just so that everyone here knows my situation with regard to the products tested recently and referred to here I offer the following. I do not own nor plan to buy a Teres turntable. I have been critical of Teres in another thread but overall belie... | |
| Teres vs VPI, SME, Origin Live, etc. Raul,This is my last reply to you. We tried all of the mentioned cartridges on all of the mentioned tonearms. I was there and you weren't. I liked the Universe over the Olympus but only by a very small margin. I would love to own either one. Clear... | |
| Teres vs VPI, SME, Origin Live, etc. Raul,We can split hairs as finely as lawyers if you wish but nonetheless I heard what I heard. I would buy the Schroder 2 over the Graham. It seems the only conclusive opinions are those that you have. I did however forget that the Lyra had only a... | |
| Teres vs VPI, SME, Origin Live, etc. Tom,Those arms are really something. Frank has taken each engineering need and reduced it to its simplist solution. The craftsmanship, tolerances and attention to detail is second to none. These are lasting designs. The Tri-planar is no slouch tho... | |
| Teres vs VPI, SME, Origin Live, etc. I'll let others comment on the table differences as I haven't had an opportunity to A/B what you are considering. I will say that the 265 Teres is very, very good, IMO. A good friend has this table with a system very similar to yours. He is using ... |
