| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators Lewm7, I suppose if you had a particularly bad dust cover but in the case of my dust covers there may even be a degree of improvement with the covers down as they do diminish sound pressure levels within. Both my tables are also suspended which ma... | |
| Mounting Triplanar Tonearm to SME 20/2 Turntable Three choices. #1 buy a new tonearm board.#2 laminate 1/2" MDF to the current tonearm board to cover the hole. Spray paint it black and make sure you can lower the new arm enough to get it down to platter level. #3 Make a new tonearm board. Layer ... | |
| Vinyl “Pops & Clicks” eliminators Clean, static free records need absolutely no help in this regard. The only remaining problem is background noise like rumble that this unit will not correct. I would never spend this kind of money and tolerate any level of degradation for the rar... | |
| Phono Pre Upgrade from Parasound JC-3? You will have to spend a lot more than 6K to get something noticeably better than the JC-3. Until you can spend 14K be happy where you are.The John Curl designed Constellation Orion is $80K. | |
| NUPRIME EVOLUTION ONE-BEST CLASS D AMP ON THE MARKET It's just cheap garbage designed for high profit. Radio Shack use to sell better stuff than this. My old TACT amps switched at 9 megahertz. Now that is PWM switching with a vengeance. In the end still didn't sound that good. Back to Class A and ha... | |
| Magnepan Owners Jumpers? It's the fuses that screw things up, I bypass everything with Kimber 12VS. The only thing you risk doing is blowing a tweeter and they are easy to replace. Maggie has a great replacement program. Go for broke and really improve the curren... | |
| Upgrade cartridge or turntable? Get a new stylus and save more money. Let us know when you get to $5000. | |
| garrard 301 - how to polish chassis paint. Menzerna 2500 https://www.autogeek.net/menzerna-power-finish.html and a soft cloth. I suspect the yellowing goes deeper than you can polish off. In which case you will have to take the table apart, sand blast it and refinish. I would have it pow... | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? Yes, the software is all over the place. More luck than brains but when I first met my wife I had Magnepan Tympani's. Anything is an improvement after those. My kids having grown up with this stuff are certainly music lovers but it does seem like ... | |
| Recommend speakers for a large living room I would put Sound lab 845's along the window wall of the sitting area. Line source dipoles will limit early reflections and Sound Labs still disperse over a wide angle. Line source speakers project power better so they will fill that rather large ... | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? Ct, I'm not going to step into that one. All I can say is you guys need to treat your doctors better so the good ones stop coming down here.You are saying that when you cut the string it takes less time for the platter to come to a stop. That does... | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? My daughter is a heavy music lover. She sang opera in collage. She is not an audiophile. Her fiance might be. He certainly gets big smiles listening to the rig. As for the CS, it should be less expensive depending on import fees and shipping altho... | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? Ct0517, Sorry for miss spelling your name. I have reviewed the design of the Verdier. It has a 16 kg platter with a reverse spindle supported by opposing magnets, belt or string drive. If the magnets are oriented correctly they should have no brak... | |
| Stylus-Drag..Fact or Fiction? Mike, smart man. I like to theorize which sometimes gets me into trouble but I am in the camp that says "everything has a reason, cause and effect." Plus, a lot of stuff we wind up buying before we can really evaluate it like ski boots. So, you lo... | |
| Graham Phantom Supreme 12" - heavier counterweight needed ?! Carlo, I do not work for Graham. Get in touch with them and ask about it.But, after thinking about it a 9 gm Cartridge is not that heavy. It must be a wood body Koetsu. It should balance out so something is wrong with the set up or the way the ton... |
