| Lyra Atlas experiences Reading all this, you can see how intellectual arguments can lead anywhere(especially if you get one thing wrong). I use parameters as an outside guiding force-not the be all and end all of all things. You need to get in the ballpark(with these)... | |
| What is more accurate: magnetic anti-skating, or barrel weight attached a fishline? As I remember it, I backed off anti-skate incrementally from what appeared(both channels sounded equal-in a way) to be a "correct" anti-skate setting, and the result was an increase in the life(liveness?) of the music, and, therefore, to a more co... | |
| Do 45 RPM records need higher anti-skate setting? While all these discussions are interesting, can you see if one of these ideas or thoughts are incorrect, or are left out, your conclusions will be wrong-sometimes incredibly so. Lost in all this is how I actually set my anti-skate, and it didn't... | |
| Loudspeakers have we really made that much progress since the 1930s? Lansche uses the plasma tweeter, and it might be the best tweeter around(from what I heard at the California Audio Show). | |
| Heybrook TT2 Using my poor memory, I believe it was recommended for a time by Hi Fi Answers, until Systemdek turntables became the second choice after the LP 12. So, it was considered highly. If you can get some issues of that magazine, you might be able to ... | |
| Any thoughts on a solid hickory platform under my tt Without much experimentation(some, though), I liked Mapleshade's maple over butcher block(3 inchs each, and big brass footers-used on the floor) for my amp. I also thought the 2-inch Mapleshade maple board, with their rubber, cork, rubber footers... | |

| Curious .. What is the compared price of your tt vs spkrs I want to disagree with almarg's characterization of Linn's philosophy. I'm not sure he has thought it through completely, or listened to systems with a poor turntable and great speakers versus the opposite(by opposite, on speakers, I'm not talki... | |
| What's going on with the audio market? I used to need audio to relax and refresh. I have discovered something else that does a better job of this, so I don't "need" it. In addition, this something else also works when I sleep. I wake up totally refreshed(at age 64). If I do somethi... | |
| What's going on with the audio market? I believe digital, as good as it is, plays a part in music not being as important in people's lives. While you can sit back and say that sounds fantastic(an intellectual reaction), it still doesn't quite bring about the relaxation that analog can... | |
| What's going on with the audio market? As far as the future goes, things like quantum entanglement(which they are learning that more than photons and spin can be quantum entangled) leave us hope. I think we(as ordinary citizens) need to come up with stuff, as the powers-that-be would b... | |

| Anti skate. I think something's wrong Truman, might I suggest you add one thing to your method. When you get that centered image, try to incrementally change anti-skate more and less, until you decide what you like the best. Sleep on your results, and look to see what setting gets y... |
