| New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener? Hi drmoss_ca, will appreciate your view on how well it works. I am waiting until the pouch is available, and no time really to spin vinyl much right now anyway. Are you in the GTA area, I'm in Burlington, ON? Nice system you have.... | |
| New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener? When management of a company catering to audiofools actually encourages you to hold off on your purchase and take advantage of an upcoming package deal, it sorta reinforces (to me at least) that they're in if for the long haul, so I have no doubt ... | |
| New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener? Zaikesman,Mfr says the pouch will be available mid September and they will offer bundled pricing. | |
| New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener? Incorrect. That was the price quoted yesterday for the 'pouch'. The flatener is $79.95, $50 less than the dealer ad on Agon. $59.95 quoted for the pouch, price not showing on their website yet. $80 for that flattener? Clearly these guys are not ou... | |
| New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener? Thanks gents and Benjie for the review. The dealer ad that was on here has since been pulled, maybe because they were listing it at around +$50 to the mfrs website price. I wrote to the mfr about availability of the pouch and John Martindale got b... | |
| Cat damaged speaker, Help ...then find a good spot in the backyard to bury the remnants of the little scratcher. and no headstone for him.... | |
| Zappa question totally agree with the synthfreek ( I wonder why, we both seem to like the shpongle too), hot rats + overnight sensations.. entirely different but they take you to the best and extremes of his moods. | |
| tonearm/cartridge matching, mass/damping/tweaking Perhaps Bob. I got my information mainly from 'Blake' who posts frequently on Jelco and 103 related threads out and about. I note you are selling an MMT which should be pretty much identical to the Jelco although from the specs it looks like yours... | |
| tonearm/cartridge matching, mass/damping/tweaking Bob, I was advised on another forum the spindle to pivot maybe should be 215-216mm whereas Jelco specifies 214mm. I'll get around to writing SOTA about it and see what they say and let you know..... | |
| tonearm/cartridge matching, mass/damping/tweaking Hot rod. I'll try to chew through that while I'm coasting in Key Largo next week. I've read his stuff before, he's a little verbose to say the least but definitely interesting.Hey Bob. It is currently situate in a board that had overlapping holes ... | |
| Sibilance issues with vinyl rig I think your 'spin-clean' may be at the root of the problem,if residual cleaning solution is staying on the record it has been indicated a problem in the past in forums. Buy a couple of records at a store that has a good vacuum cleaner and get the... | |
| tonearm/cartridge matching, mass/damping/tweaking Update guys. I put the Akito 2b up for sale and it was gone in a couple of days. Hardly gave me time to order up the Jelco 750db, which I have since received and installed in the system, using both the GAS and a new 103r. Well, holy crap, synergy ... | |
| Tube preamp for Pass Labs amp I am runnning a Modwright SWLP 9.0se into a Pass X-250 into Totem Forests, they gel gloriously. | |
| Sibilance issues with vinyl rig Could you be more specific as to what method and products you are using to clean the records? | |
| Heavy table on Target vw1 'pro'? Yeah, using drywall mollies on the one side would leave me more than a bit nervous too- better to come home today and do a rearrangement, fsonic. My bathroom scale says the SOTA checks in at 42 lbs without the arm, which would put it right at the ... |
