| Audioquest PT Arm Damping Fluid Hello Pryso,Thank you for your advice. Yours is course the most logical, and I did earlier shoot an email off to Audioquest, not asking for Fluids-freebies, but if they can provide the Weight Specification for the Fluid?If I have no luck with them... | |
| Audioquest PT Arm Damping Fluid Was wrong for me to say that Damping Fluids, and Damping Troughs are a poor band-aid for bad Tonearm.I failed to recognize, and remeber that many of the finest Arm in the world come with this feature.Perhaps it's more of what the market wants, aki... | |
| Audioquest PT Arm Damping Fluid Hello Wayne, Good to hear from ya!Yes, I still have this Arm, perhaps you were thinking of someone else?I've done so much searching, I've even read a post from you 2 years ago on the Asylum asking similar questions.Akin to asking a person to decip... | |
| Finding ultra-pure water locally... The Prestone Water, while might be good, and good enough for many users, (and very possibly better than single step distilled), without any data to be had, and what type container such water is then placed in, still leaves me with some doubt?I rem... | |
| Finding ultra-pure water locally... I generally take great interest in threads such as these, and others about cleaning-rinsing, etc., as well, that can discuss the actual science, and appropriate products, without perhaps the need to shell out $40 for a 1/2 oz of cleaner, such as w... | |
| Toslink Port Cover Plugs? Usblues "might" be referring to a "5-finger discount". lol Certainly wouldn't want to see my name in the paper, over a .10 cent piece of plastic! ;-)I actually need two, as I have them missing off of a couple of pieces of vintage CAL Audio digital... | |
| Cartridge for VPI Scoutmaster Sig And to add to what headsnappin wrote, what Phono Stage are you using, what is its gain, and loading capabilities for a good Cartridge match, and do you currently plan to possibly upgrade to a different phono stage in the near future?The Clearaudio... | |
| Denon DL301 vs Benz micro glider I'm unsure about the comparo with either. Owned an oiginal Glider, and was very happy with it.From what I understand, the Glider will soon be getting a better Stylus, the Gieger Stylus, which I believe is a finer, Line Contact Design. Should help ... | |
| Stupid question about Sutherland Ph.D. phono pre Since the Unit is still in production, one would assume this should be a simple matter. Have Chad at Acoustic Sounds put you in touch with Ron Sutherland himself.You might also be able to contact Ron through the manufacturer's list on this forum's... | |
| Stupid question about Sutherland Ph.D. phono pre I would assume so. I believe gain is 45-50-55-60 with the stock gain boards. And besides the 4 settings on the loading boards, I understand blank boards can be gotten solder in your own selected pairs of resistors.Best person to ask this question ... | |
| cantelever not straight, advise please. Hello Ejlif,I am unsure of this, as I've never personally taken this route, because luckily, every transaction I've ever had here on Audiogon have been absolutely flawless, regardless if I was the Seller, or the Buyer of goods. So far, I have been... | |
| How often do you folks vacuum clean your albums? Since this appears to be a serious discussion, I would like asking about the Vinyl media-material itself, and if it is then true, that Vinyl over time leeches oils to its surface, thus requiring at some point in the future cleaning again, regardle... | |
| a record cleaning device and proper method Hello Alexthe,With a semi-manual machine (or should it be called semi-auto?) like the VPI 16.5, you apply fluids, and scrub manually. Therefore, Fluids can be applied, let sit, so they have the proper amount of time to do thier jobs, scrub to your... | |
| VPI HW 19 - replacing springs with pucks or cones Here's the link for the DIY Sandbase, for some good basic ideas. It is under Isolation Devices. http://www.high-endaudio.com/RC-accessories.html | |
| VPI HW 19 - replacing springs with pucks or cones Geez, Then it's evident, that VPI has chosen to get as far away from the HW-19 as possible. Darn shame, as if they chose, they could still be providing some of these parts, and upgrades paths for literal tens of thousands of these tables still in ... |
