| VPI Super Platter Hello Dave, Stringreen, All,Inquiring minds wish to know.... at least mine does!What I wonder Dave, is that as you've mentioned, that you've never noted any wear on the original Bearing Ball in your particular instance, and I'm believing one of th... | |
| VPI Super Platter Hello Bob/All,Perhaps use a little Lighter Fluid (Naptha), or some other suitable Solvent (Paint thinner) on a piece of Kleenex to cut-thin, and clean the caked up Oil that is retaining-holding the Ball to the bottom of the Shaft.It will be inters... | |

| VPI Super Platter Would this Lead/Acyrlic Platter also be the HW-19 MK-IV Platter as well? Where would one get this Silicon-Nitride Bearing Ball for the upgrade?Thanks, Mark | |
| VPI Belts Black vs Clear Hello Bob, Yes, I have heard of the Boiling trick, and I might try this myself one day, but would like to have at least one new spare on hand just in case.I reckon Lacee the trick is not to boil too much, that you'd want the Belt "Ala Dente" lol P... | |
| Good product for cleaning nickle plated chrome I've never heard of nickle plated chrome? Do you mean chrome plate? Not to be in any way rude, but maybe Cary will have the very best advice?Probably the best advice I can give if this is indeed just chrome plated metal of some sort, is to use som... | |
| Analog Help Please Tough to evaluate, but I will comment a big "no" on your last sentence. Unless you are saying that with your system "muted" it still mistracks? Tough to understand your last post, can you elaborate better please? Without better isolation, I doubt ... | |
| Analog Help Please Yes, Mehran, the dealer for the Cart may be of help.Only other thing that comes to my mind, is a possible slight bind, or some slight resistance in the Triplanar's bearings? How hard would this be to check? After reading Doug's "tips and tricks" o... | |
| Analog Help Please Well I'm certainly no authority here, and will try "humbly" suggesting something. I certainly do recognize the peerless quality of both Arm/Cartridge you are using, and gather that you have much good experience with this high level of quality comp... | |
| McIntosh MT-10 Turntable -- thoughts/expectations Can't understand why McIntosh would go forward with such a gamble as this "laughable" Table?Makes little sense to set up a table from the factory?They'll sell some, as there's always some Mac fanatics that just have to have one, but I predict it w... | |
| VPI HW-19 Motor Thank you all, and I'm sorry I didn't elaborate that the friend is a "web friend", so I don't have Motor in hand to inspect. I've never had problems with my own HW-19 (yet) to yank, and inspect the Motor. Yes, I did suggest to this person to give ... | |

| zyx universe cartr.- ideal weight -ideal vta , Hello Halcro,Thank you too for your post, enjoyed the read as well.After I read it, I was thinking of Doub, thinking of some of the things he would be telling me to "remember-consider" with Cartridge set up/Tuning.Doug I remember mentioning once t... | |
| Noise from phono. Help please. Unsure if those little Ferrite RFI Filters that clip onto an IC would be of help?One thing you could possibly try, is connecting a ground wire from the Chassis of the Phono Stage to Pre, or even perhaps too, a ground wire from Pre to Main Amp?The ... |
