| Alignment Snafu? Or? You know something Doug, you are as sharp as a tack!Please don't ever leave this group! It seems Ken Willis also immediately knew this, as today, he cheerfully sent me for free, 4 pdfprintouts via email for Grace Specs at 227mm/228mm, and as well ... | |
| Alignment Snafu? Or? Part Deux,I went on today to check my mint Denon DP-2550, with Grace DA-307 Arm, S-P distance supposed to be 230mm, and evidently, the previous numb nuts mounted the Arm at 221mm Way off. The furthest I can mount the Arm is at 228mm, so I have con... | |

| Cartridge advice in the $2000 range Nobody's responded yet, and I'm afraid I cannot offer too much help, because I am basically light years beneath you as far as sophistication, and high quality in an Analog Rig.The most important catch phrase, is going to be synergy. Do not hesitat... | |
| VPI HW 16 Broken Dustcover. What to do? Many who owned the 16 converted them to the 16.5.VPI does I believe still supply this upgrade, with all the required parts. The only other less expensive options I can think of, if it is just the Lexan cover broken, is to find a local plastics sho... | |
| speakers/turntable for Marantz 2325 I concur to perhps take the least painful, and expensive path, yet will provide solid sound, and enjoyment. The Technics 12XX series has all the bells, and whistles built in, strobe, pitch, light, etc. KAB would be the source, and there's a pletho... | |
| Alignment Snafu? Or? Hello Doug, thank you for chiming in, and it's good to see you back here posting some!Was I'm sure hard for some of us folks "holding up the fort" so to speak, in your absence! I will probably do as you wisely suggest, and remove, and put away the... | |
| Alignment Snafu? Or? Hello Thom, Thank you too for your comments, and support, your experience has helped me.With my AQ PT-8 Arm, I am currently using a Pete Riggle VTAF, and as you probably know, the VTAF Bushing in essence replaces the Arm Mounting Base.My Table is ... | |
| Alignment Snafu? Or? Just wanted to follow up here, what my findings were, and I hope my post isn't too long, or bores anyone.Ken Willis very kindly forwarded me some Arc Protractors to try, both Baerwald, and Stevenson Geometry at 211mm, and 212mm.Clearly determining... | |
| Return to forever I seen Stanley years ago, at the now long gone China Club in Chicago. He had just came out with his "East River Drive" release.He's definitely a mind blower! When I left that concert, my face was actually sore, from the ear to ear smile I was wear... | |
| DIY Record Cleaning Solution Hello Dan_Ed/All,Of course topics such as this have been beaten to death across the internet over the years, and it's an age old battle. I reckon nothing will ever change in regards to this, and the different "camps" as to who's wrong, and who's r... | |
| DIY Record Cleaning Solution Yes, you are correct Jimateo, you did initate this thread, and sorry that it went off on another tangent.I will tell you the same as another has mentioned, but in a kinder fashion, to search archives, here, and others, like Audio Asylum, an Audio ... | |
| DIY Record Cleaning Solution Dan_Ed, I welcome Maclogan's comments, and with my participation in this thread, only hope to perhaps help him, make him see another side, rather than alienate him, and make an enemy. Enemies are easy to make, and who needs enemies, in the real wo... | |
| Alignment Snafu? Or? Thank You Narrod, Another person has advised me exactly as you have, to perhaps trying Stevenson Geometry. While my rig is sounding pretty darn good, I think all can sympathise, trying to squeeze every last bit of performance from my vinyl rig. My... | |
| Alignment Snafu? Or? Hello Narrod/All.Thanks for the info so far. The info I have downloaded, and know so far, is a claim of the AQ PT-6 through PT-9 on Vinyl Engine of an effective length of 229mm, mounting distance of 211mm, overhang 18mm. All show null points (Baer... |
