| Garrard 301 motor and rumble @atmasphere Speed instability is certainly a problem. Most of it is caused by record warping and eccentric spindle holes. The very same irregularities that cause rumble also cause speed irregularity. The old idler wheel turntables are less spee... | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @lewm I thought you loved the bubbles. Polka anyone? | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging @grislybutter I can cook great, but baking requires too much accuracy for me. @mahgister still took offence due to my previous comments about headphones. Anyway you can enjoy music is fine by me. Music lovers and audiophiles are two separate gr... | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @tomic601 I forgot to mention, you are surely FOS. | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @tomic601 I love the Drifters along with Dion and the Belmonts, The imperials, The Capris, Shep and the Limelight's, The Tokens, The Earls, The Five Discs, Harvey and the Moonglows, Randy and the Rainbows, The Flamingos, The Mystics, Boss-Tones,... | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging @kraftwerkturbo Yes, it is unusual, but the British are unusual. I can say that the P3's construction is first class using the best materials. I have never seen tighter miters. @grislybutter I did not mean it to be harsh at all. He is concer... | |
| SOTA STAR Sapphire Turntable Care and Feeding @tomic601 The generators of cartridges, with few exceptions, are very simple devices and very old tech. The performance of cartridges assuming similar construction quality, is due primarily to the stylus shape and cantilever. The Hana Blue is a ... | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @dogberry Mums the word. @rauliruegas Look under the pile of sawdust. @tomic601 How old is the 787 now? Making a cylinder out of balsa is simple. Orient it any way you like. You resin impregnate it, stick the blank on the lathe, drill an... | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @pindac Nice cover. Such non disclosure agreements pertain to patentable issues during the life of the patent. Anyone dealing with items significant for military reasons will have security clearance. I suppose tomic has one of those also. I happ... | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging @mahgister I think you should just stick to headphones. | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging @kraftwerkturbo You might take a second to look at the way the woofer is mounted, from behind. In order to get it in or out you have to have a removable panel, Since the speakers are typically mounted on stands and you can see around them what ... | |
| A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @tomic601 Well then, you should know. You might enlighten us instead of being cryptic. | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging The best imaging is very hard to achieve. It is impossible in some rooms. The speakers have to be in symmetrical identical environments and have to have identical frequency response curves from 100 Hz to 12 kHz. This is difficult to achieve withou... | |
| Sound Stage and Imaging @kraftwerkturbo You want Magnepan 3.7i or better. I do not like Martin Logan ESLs. The curved panel is a problem for any number of reasons. Sound Labs makes a much better ESL and you can get them in 8 or 9 foot tall versions which will fit to mo... | |
| Garrard 301 motor and rumble @fsonicsmith No, you just have to replace a noisy idler wheel every couple of months or so. The actually pump Sota uses is child's play to replace and readily available. If you can come up with a better way to perfectly flatten a record and ma... |
