| Help: Records too big for the VPI 16.5 Ryanlesser, Is sounds very possible that the person who modded your model 16 to 16.5 status made errors in assembly-installation?I wish to help, with a list of measurements from a genuine VPI 16.5, and let's see how they compare? I should note, VP... | |
| magnifying glass/loupes used for alignment Nolitan, If you have the Peak "Lupe", this works pretty well, the Peak Lupe I have, which I had gotten through Yip in Hong Kong with the MintLP Protractor, has a removable housing, lets one get a little bit closer. At 10X, this should be sufficien... | |
| VPI HW-17 - brush too short? LloydC,Maybe I'm misunderstanding.so please forgive me if I have, but I feel one should of course use the Vacuum fluid removal on any process, whether any type of cleaning step, or the final rinse step. Vacuum removal is much more efficient, getti... | |
| VPI HW-17 - brush too short? Hello, Mofi, I think the original poster is referring to the scrubbing brush not covering the entire surface of the LP when placed upon the record to auto-scrub, and not the vacuum wand, or to do with fluid removal with vacuum wand.I'm not that fa... | |
| That last micro cartridge adjustment Hello Markpao,Forgive me if I'm missing something, but I don't understand the need of washers, and what you are trying to accomplish with them? VTA adjustment, or Azimuth? Isn't there other ways to fine tune such with your tonearm?I'd assume disco... | |
| Best LP cover and record protection The other choices, which I myself use, are the Japanese resealable outer sleeves sold by Elusive Disc.These are high quality, the genuine article, hold up very well. One downside, they are a bit expensive. I've had success with them containing any... | |
| ZYX Airy 3 or Atmos If the Atmos is still available from Mehran at Sorasound, then I would act quickly for a purchase, as he won't be carrying them forever. It will be a one time opportunity to get this cartridge at such a low price.There's much written about the Atm... | |
| Getting The Most Out Of My Scout I know you have no intentions of buying all these upgradesn you listed, just to make your scout sound btter.Because if you did come up with such a sum, and spent it on another, better turntable, that money would make the Scout sound like a $44 pla... | |
| AQ PT-6 bad cueing mechanism ??? Hello Wayne my friend,As you may remember, I own both the AQ PT-8, which is now on a Denon DP-2550 Table, and the newer PT-9 which now resides on my HW-19 Table. There seems to be variance with these cueing mechanisms. My PT-8 a couple years back ... | |
| Tips for cleaning Zyx airy 3 Yep, but your Denon DL-110 is nowhere near the realm of the ZYX, and one of the reason's for the Airy 3's wonderful sound, and its ability to pick up more crud than the Denon is its Stylus profile.Hopefully that stiff Brush your referring to that ... | |
| Tips for cleaning Zyx airy 3 Fro, I too use a ZYX Airy 3X Use the Mr Clean Magic Eraser, and problem solved. If your digging quite a bit of dirt from your records, this is telling me your Okki Nokki ain't cutting it. Either that, or you're using inadequate cleaners, and rinse... | |
| $1200... What would you buy? Botit, Yes, the older Denons are a beautiful table,and i have myself a lesser one on ice as a second table, a DP-2550, with a retro-fitted AQ PT-8 Arm. Downside of the Denons you mention, is that these Tables are getting up in age, to find a mint ... | |
| VPI Classic---Denon 103 won't fit on arm?? I too feel this was wise also. An earlier post I wrote never made it here, but it mentioned that it just didn't make sense to me, to alter stock S-P Distance for one Cartridge, that you may've soon moved beyond in the future.The Dyna should work f... | |
| Modifications to California Audio Labs/CAL Delta? I have a modded Delta, that I won on an ebay auction through Richard Gray of The Power Company fame. The Transport belonged to a friend of his.This Transport, which I won for $300, had over $600 worth of mods, done by Great Northern Sound in MN. E... | |
| Mint LP Solution Firstly Circelman, and the rest of us fine A-Gon Brothers,and Sisters, I'd like keeping this thread civil, and as well educational-beneficial to all.Yip in Hong Kong is certainly a fine fellow to deal with, as I have, for the MintLP Protractor. A ... |
