| Where to buy record cleaning fluids Hello Ibog1,This is an awful lot of alcohol to be adding to a mix.As I understand it, other than being wet, your DIY is really not that effective a cleaner.There was a fairly good, but very lengthy article here some time back, can be found in the ... | |
| Where to buy record cleaning fluids This thread is becoming the engergizer bunny, going on, and on, the BS, and erroneous information is getting deeper, and deeper, and has no relation at all to the original poster's queries.But before I end my post, I'd like saying that your knowle... | |
| The best phono stage out there? Ecka, I have owned my Sutherland PhD for a good two years now. The Sutherland PhD IMO does many things well.Atmasphere of course brings up good points, and I'll agree wholeheartedly, a world class phono stage cannot just be judged by that it does ... | |
| The best phono stage out there? Ecka, I am currently using the low output (.24mv) ZYX Airy 3X SB Cartridge. Settings on my Sutherland PhD are 62db Gain (lowest setting on the High gain Boards). I could've used 60db Gain as well, and possibly 64db without detriment. Loading is se... | |
| The best phono stage out there? Hello Ecka,I've noted, and if others as well read carefully, you make mention of the "Cartridge you intend to use, is the Dyna XV-1S".Does that mean that you not currently using that Cartridge with your Sutherland PhD? If not, what Cartridge are/w... | |
| VPI super platter upgrade with JMW 12.5 This seems like a common problem with Tables, particularly VPI (since they've basically made more Platters than Carter has Pills)One way I believe it was addressed many years ago, with the HW-19 Models, was the use of the thicker "Super Armboard",... | |
| Looking for guidance with older VPI HW-19 tables Tough to say? The VPI HW-19 Series (although I own one) is sort of a dated design, being introduced well over 25 years ago. This doesn't mean its a bad Table, but hard to tell you what Table you should be using-buying to fit this Arm to? Much depe... | |
| Turntable service in Albuquerque? Hello, Is it just set-up that's required, or are there operational issues, etc with this Table? I'm in southern NM, but that isn't probably doing you much good? I know of one fella up in White Rock who is over in AudioKarma Forums, perhaps he can ... | |
| Yet another VPI 16.5 thread Hello Narrod,It probably could be done, but not without some substantial fabrication. Not to mention, would sort of be a sin, hacking up a Jr Platter to make it fit aboard the 16.5 RCM.The stock 16.5 MDF Platter is .500" thick, roughly 11" in Diam... | |
| Looking for guidance with older VPI HW-19 tables Mingles, Finding a Table used such as the HW-19 MK-IV used would then more than likely need an entirely new Armboard fabricated ala third party as you suggest, and would need to be drilled for the Hadcock Arm-Armbase.The Spindle to Pivot Distance ... | |
| Yet another VPI 16.5 thread Grimace, I've gone through about 360 LPs so far in my collection, trying to "thin the herd" so to speak, with AIVS Cleaners, and I am still using the original Wand for the AIVS Cleaners, with original Velvet Strips, and they look no worse for wear... | |
| Yet another VPI 16.5 thread I've owned a new 16.5 for about 16-17 months now.The build quality of the machine is professionally executed, in, and out, totally first rate. Nothing I've found was haphazardly put together, to give any dislike to. All internal wiring is neat, bu... | |
| Looking for guidance with older VPI HW-19 tables If you're seeking a VPI HW-19 without being previously drilled for an Arm, it will be an easier matter seeking a version that has the Steel Sub-Chassis, and seperate Armboard. A new Black Acrylic Armboard can be dupicated-copied, and re-drilled fo... | |
| Cartridge Setup w/Geodisc by MoFi Rocky, Remember this....The Glider, like many other MC Cartridges, does not come with any type of Stylus Guard. That Cantilever-Stylus sticks out like a sore thumb, and invites just one little mistake. I'm not trying to scare you. Mounting a Cartr... | |
| Cartridge Setup w/Geodisc by MoFi Rockyboy,Dependent upon whether you decided to try the printable Tractor was willing to send you, maybe one way to enhance the Geodisc, would be taping a thread to the origin of sight line, stretching the thread to the center of Arm Pivot, then si... |
