| Mag Lev Turntable. Your Thoughts? Forgetting about all this, the noise coming from the lath and the record itself is far in excess of that created by even a half decent modern bearing. It is a solution without a problem. | |
| VPI's new "Vanquish" Ultra High-End turntable is a STUNNER! And it doesn't even have a self leveling pendulum :( | |
| VPI's new "Vanquish" Ultra High-End turntable is a STUNNER! Gee, gymballed tonearm bearings..... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators Wolf, just play a blank groove and make a tape loop out of it. Now you can justify buying that reel to reel machine:) | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators Back to the theme of this thread, if you use a dust cover and conductive sweep arm and don't buy records from chakster a pop and tick eliminator is totally unnecessary. | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators Grinding dust into the surface of your records is a destructive habit. Think about it chakster. You are playing your records at a pressure of 52 thousand psi generating thousands of volts of static electricity which draws dust like a magnet from a... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators Lewm as I explained before the pressure is right and the contact area is in square inches. The reason the stylus does not go through your finger is because your skin is very pliable. As the stylus bears into your skin the skin "tents" allowing oth... | |
| Bright High End Speakers = Bad Room? Excellent Teo. Duke is right on. Having a TACT room control device I can analyze the in room frequency response of any loudspeaker and devise target curves to give the speaker any response curve I want. I can load 9 different response curves and s... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators I forgot to mention Jim that you want to keep the back end high. I would have designed it with the bristles perpendicular to the record. I also stuck a square of felt down next to the turntables to wipe the brush off on between sides. I clean the ... | |
| Vinyl Users - Best/Favorite room air cleaner Sleepwalker, that is pretty dry. Hows about 40-50%. Of course in the Winter up here in New England if you try this you will flood out all your windows so 30-35% is the best you can do.Most furnaces have crappy 1" fiberglass filters that do almost ... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators James, I had a dust bug! They did not have conductive carbon bristles back then and we had the right idea but in the end I think the Dust bug increased the static charge on the record which led to more trouble. I even tried spraying it lightly wit... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators jameswei, add the sweep arm. It is only $20.00. Your records will stay even cleaner as they will not hold any static charge so will not attract duct on their way back and forth to the record cover and any incidental dust on the record will be swep... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators cleeds. half way down is a chart showing the contact area of Soundsmith's styli. https://www.sound-smith.com/articles/stylus-shape-information The Line Contact stylus is listed as 46.7 micrometers squared. 6 X 50 micrometers defines the tip sha... | |
| how to get the SME 309 tail down-help rrm, just set it where SME recommends and forget about it. People who think they can hear the difference in a couple of degrees VTA or SRA are IMHO psychotic (they are hallucinating). There are so many variables that you can not control or account... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators Elizabeth, ok, so I will take a one inch square metal rod place it on the top of your head and put 2000 lb on it. Any idea? Math is just that, Math. Math allows us to predict what will happen in real terms. Pressure produces heat. Next time you ar... |
