| VTA setting up.....how do I find level? Jbatlanta,I really recommend you go to Audio Asylum and on the home page click on FAQ. Scroll down until you see the section on turntable set up. If you read all the posts and especially Jon Risch's "VTA and forget it" you'll be an expert. | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question Update. I received an email from Chris and will be boxing the arm up to send to him. Hopefully the culprit item will be identified and replaced. I did post a clarification about the 1/8" (wrong) platter deviation as soon as I caught it. I apologiz... | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question Okay, Teres owners please take out a ruler and tell me how tall your armboards are. I'm getting conflicting information as to the height. Chris states in an email to me that 27 mm (1.06") is the right height and that sounds good based on my proble... | |
| static electricity Hey, when you install the humidifier make sure you have a dedicated circuit. Just kidding. Another consideration if you install a humidifier is the quality of the water. If you have extremely hard water you WILL have a humidifier malfunction. Inst... | |
| Bass Question - should LP range be so different? Audio Asylum has the best discussions I've ever read on turntable setup in the FAQ section. My LP12 has bass that is more defined than my CDP has. Here's the link. Pay particular attention to Jon Risch's post regarding SRA. It's just another, and ... | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question Tom,As stated earlier in this thread you ARE an Audiogon icon. Nobody that I know of has any ill will toward you. You and I have communicated via phone for hours on end about a variety of audio and non-audio subjects. You've taken the time to shar... | |
| would this Deter you from buying used gear???? Pbb,My favorite river to fish on around my home has a few rattlesnakes. They're small, timid and die easy. Hell, say boo loud enough and they faint. We tell folks about the abundance of snakes. It keeps the crowds down. I really wish the rest of t... | |
| would this Deter you from buying used gear???? Elinor,That's a cute comment. Would you care to elaborate using constitutional and historical perspectives to support your opinion? | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question Tom,I haven't detected an attack on Teres like you are insinuating. I don't think you are referring to me but for the record I recommended this table combo to my friend. I still own the same turntable I've had for well over twenty years. I am not ... | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question Doug,Yeah, all I've heard so far is the relative potential of this table since VTA (SRA) is so critical, especially with the 901. I will let everyone know what my impression is once it's set up properly. I imagine it will meet my expectations or e... | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question Clueless,This is aside from the bearing and motor/controller.Regarding your question about required tolerances, the Teres design has few critical tolerances. There are three holes in the plinth that all need to be perfectly vertical. I don't know ... | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question I posted an error and wish to correct this. The platter isn't cupped 1/8". It's more like 1/64" but the cup is irregular as I move a true straight edge around its surface. I'd like to know if the platter is supposed to be flat. Would someone with ... | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question The bearing, motor and speed controller are top drawer. The plinth, platter and armboard design is simple which is a good thing. However, I noticed the same woodworking issues with this 265 plus a couple more. The armboard that was supplied was al... | |
| Tube Preamps with Bass? It's gonna be hard finding one to audition but you should try a Supratek. Your search will be over. | |
| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? FWIW, mechanical engineers and electrical engineers attend the same college classes. When one wishes to become a Professional Engineer (PE) you chose your discipline and serve your apprentice time (EIT-engineer in training), then take a final exam... |
