| The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" @wizzzard There is only one motor shaft. There is a stub shaft that the secondary gear spins on. The motor shaft exits the motor cavity through a bearing then a seal into the pump cavity the seal is 6 mm in diameter and captured by a plastic rim... | |
| New phono stage from SOTA @rauliruegas Raul, I am not arguing that other tissues besides ears can sense sound. There is a video of a fellow who is deaf as a door knob who listens to his system daily. He says he can "feel" the music. My only point of contention is at what... | |
| A Discussion About What Level Of Analog To Stop At @neonknight You have done a great job so far. There are other more important fish to fry besides a Walker Prothenium which IMHO is over the hill in terms of complexity and I am not in any way in favor of that tonearm. You and I have very simil... | |
| Thank You Fumihiko Sugano and Koetsu Did Fumihiko San have any children? It is tradition in Japan for the son to carry the flag forward. | |
| The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" @wizzzard Shaft is about 1.5 mm in diameter. It was a single lip seal probably about 6 mm in diameter, I am not going to take the pump apart again until it fails. The packing is working great so far. There is nothing to keep me from rebuilding i... | |
| The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" @wizzzard It is a Clearaudio Double Matrix Sonic Pro. The pump has no markings that would identify the manufacturer. It is a gear driven pump. The pump and the motor form a single unit. The motor shaft drives the primary gear passing through a s... | |
| New phono stage from SOTA @rauliruegas Raul, all that is wonderful and very true, but bone conduction does not work through air. It works by physical contact. It is way less sensitive than air conduction with normal hearing. We use this characteristic to diagnose hearing... | |
| What would your "perfect speaker" sound like. @doni LS3 5As have no bass below 80 Hz at 3 feet or any feet for that matter. Get a pair of KEF K92 subwoofers and a MiniDSP SHD Studio with two Benchmark DACs. This will make you a 90% system (better than 90% of the systems out there). | |
| Radical toe in once more @o_holter If you are not sure how they are wired take an AAA battery and while holding the negative speaker lead against the negative pole of the battery tap the positive lead against the positive pole of the battery for a split second. If both ... | |
| Radical toe in once more @newbee There is always a "right way" to set up well designed loudspeakers in good rooms with maybe 2 or 3 options. There is no good way to set up poor loudspeakers in either good or bad rooms. | |
| Radical toe in once more @o_holter I may have missed this but what brand and model are these loudspeakers. The way the speakers are wire has a huge affect on how they operate. Are the drivers in phase (both front and rear drivers moving out at the same time) or 180 degr... | |
| Orb Audio DF-01iA+ @dogberry Neither can I. | |
| When Will We Learn? @discnik If you post a close up shot of the damage I can tell you if there is anything you can do to make it more presentable. | |
| Best way to clean glossy finish on speakers? @vandy357 You asked about a ceramic product and I told you. After rubbing out with a fine polishing compound like Menzerna 3500 all you need to do is wipe off occasionally with a fast evaporating product one would normally use for cleaning windo... | |
| Best way to clean glossy finish on speakers? @dabel , Festool makes excellent gear. Their sander s are top notch. The problem is the price. At times they try to hard to be different like the Domino tool. Having buried myself in Milwaukee batteries I generally stick to their tools and I have... |
