| Springs under turntable Never been. Just knock off the “e” as in back side:) | |
| Correct Way to Invert Phase With my system I can invert phase on either channel or both at the same time all by remote control from the listening position. With both speakers in phase and switching them together not one of you would be able to tell inverted from not and anyo... | |
| Turntable dealer/set up percon The degree of mysticism around what is a very simple process is beyond belief. It would appear Brian that you have a lot of work to do. It seems that audiophiles have a hard time using little screw drivers, tweezers and Allen wrenches. What else c... | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? optimize, the vast majority of us set the SRA to the requisite 92 degrees and forget about it. Many of the very best tonearms do not have adjustable VTA on the fly and IMHO are better for it. Why do I want to spend money on something I would never... | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? Compare the sound of your system to head phones. Good headphones are pretty flat. Except for the presentation your system should have the same tonal balance as the headphones. I think (not sure) that this may be the reason many love their headphon... | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? I guess I am on optimize's side in this with a few caveats. Room control will correct frequency and time issues better than any other method by a long shot. But, it will not change the way a room sounds. It is not eliminating reflections or preven... | |
| laid back stereo power amp bdp24 is absolutely right about the M60. Not sure where my head was at.At $2000 The Parasound Halo 23+ is a good option, the Halo 21 even better if you can go the extra grand. A used Pass or ARC amp would work if you can find the right one. | |
| Absorb or Diffuse Behind Listening Position? summadoggie, that is one of the worst listening positions you could have for a number of reasons. You can use absorbers behind you but that will do nothing for the bass which will be exaggerated by up to 6 dB. You need to pull yourself at least t... | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? mulveling, I agree with you about the tonearm but it is no where near as bad as a uni pivot as long as you stay away from the stiffest cartridges. Schroder uses the same design in his Reference arm which has quite a following but, I am with you. I... | |
| Accuphase Amplifiers - members opinions on their class A- A75 amp and the a/b P-7300 amp garebear, I have owned Accuphase equipment and can say definitively that there is no better build quality on the market. The stuff will last forever. Why it does not get more traction in the States is beyond me. The Class A amps are gorgeous sound... | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? Paul, IMHO absolutely nothing other than the $300 cable will look really nice which will trick many brains into thinking it sounds better. | |
| Frequency response off with test record ctlphd, it would help if you could report that directly in Hz and dB off.No system is perfectly flat and cartridges will roll off at both ends. Depending on your scale this can look pretty scary but you may only be down 3 to 6 dB at both ends whic... | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? Hey noromance,I am working on pictures of the system. I am having some trouble getting decent pictures of the computer screen. Next I will try a dark room and play around with the brightness. | |
| Dedicated Vinyl system next upgrade? Hi Paul, Great system! If you are getting cleanly to the volume you like then there is no need to upgrade the electronics. Your Herron has loads of gain so you are virtually unlimited in terms of cartridges there. Your tonearm is excellent but giv... | |
| Periphery outer ring thoughts ? Two problems. They are a PITA to use and prevent use of an auto lifter.They have to be heavy to work and this will increase wear on the bearing and motor which has to work harder to get up to speed.Vacuum hold down is the best followed by reflex c... |
