| So what's the better deal (honestly)? I would make a bonfire and burn all the money | |
| I need a loudness switch Hi Scott,Correct, you need loudness compensation. Our hearing is less sensitive to bass and treble at low volumes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal-loudness_contour. Older preamps had a "loudness" switch but it was only really accurate at one... | |

| MOBILE FIDELITY ONE STEP VINYL Cheers.vegasears, you are right. But most people will never admit that they spent $300 on a trivial piece of plastic so it becomes the best record they ever heard influencing others to make the same mistake. Having made that mistake several times ... | |
| Audio Rack Selection In that case Geoff we all need to put out systems on the floor in the basement.Bh, trust me on this one. The amps will do much better with short wires and the rest of your equipment will be happier without those big power supplies right under them... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I hate boats (get sea sick easy). My own view of music I suppose is not far from Orpheus. Much of the music both rock and jazz is stereotypical.Great musicians and songwriters are few and it seems more so today as there is so much more garbage out... | |
| Audio Rack Selection Bh, the rack is not as important as the floor it is on. The only sensitive item is the turntable. Regardless of what the mythology says the other components could care less what they are in or on.To test your floor put an end table or small cabine... | |
| The Arm/Cartridge Matching Myth Guys, you all have it down pat. Halcro is off on his own planet somewhere where the laws of physics are strangely different. I suggest we all ignore him from now on. On this planet he makes no sense. | |
| Any Sota Sapphire experts out there? You can always level the table with the bottom feet, always loaded with record and record clamp. The issue is that you drop the resonance frequency of the suspension too low which might cause the suspension to over react with foot falls and such. ... | |

| The Arm/Cartridge Matching Myth Raul, you are a mean one. To say a guy has no common sense? That is really hitting below the belt. | |
| The Arm/Cartridge Matching Myth My ears have natural frequencies also which interact with the resonant frequencies of the platter, cartridge and tonearm levitating my speaker cables 3 inches off the floor. I don't even need amplifiers anymore the sound just emanates:) | |
| Any Sota Sapphire experts out there? Lewm, The Sapphire came out long before the SME V. Back in 1981 the trick combo was the Sapphire with a Syrinx PU3 which arguably was the first real modern tonearm. Fat stepped arm tube totally adjustable everything including arm length! Separated... | |
| Any Sota Sapphire experts out there? Seantock, I got my first SOTA, the original Sapphire in 1981. I have never done anything to it except dust it once in a while. It needs absolutely no maintenance otherwise unless it develops a problem. I still have that turntable and it still runs... | |
| The Arm/Cartridge Matching Myth The rumble and low frequency resonance also causes Doppler distortion of every other frequency being produced by the woofer.Halcro you obviously can not hear or observe the difference between a properly set up turntable and an improperly set up on... |
