| Speakers Corner Dear Washline,If it is of any reassurance, I have plenty of Pallas pressings and have experienced no static issues with the material at all, nor has there been any necessity to clean them.They have been exemplary and results have been perfect ever... | |
| Cartridge Performance vs Humidity Can you point out which detail was irrelevant SG? ;^) | |
| Cartridge Performance vs Humidity It seems even the Oxford Dictionary takes cognisance of the use of the word "bloom" in HiFi... ;^)http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/bloom | |
| Cartridge Performance vs Humidity Is this question directed at me or a general/philosophical one?Assuming the latter is the case, try this. I’m not a Stereophile enthusiast but I think the essence of this viewpoint is applicable :http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/25586171 | |
| Cartridge Performance vs Humidity JWM,Lol!Houses are constructed of 2 layers of brick without very much glass which tends to keep the interiors quite cool. We only get about 2 days per year of the kind of heat you describe (If we're lucky & depending on where you are in the UK... | |
| Cartridge Performance vs Humidity I had to chuckle at the reference to air-conditioners. In the US(?) I would expect AC to be the norm. Here in the UK it’s actually very rare to find ACs in domestic use. They are generally found in cars/hotels/shops & offices. Not that we are ... | |
| Cartridge Performance vs Humidity Don,This is the direction I was aiming to discourage. It has absolutely nothing to do with warm-up. The difference between either extreme, all other factors being equal, is like chalk & cheese, despite the system being fully warmed up in every... | |
| I'm happy but I want more, more, more Hi Bill, I have a friend who uses the Satisfy arm on an LP12 and is delighted with it. (They say suspended tables and unipivots do not make the best stablemates but try telling that to all the Naim ARO users ;^) It bears repeating that IMV there... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? This study trumps everyone... ;^)http://www.theanalogdept.com/images/spp6_pics/TT_Design/MechanicalResonances.pdf | |
| I'm happy but I want more, more, more BTW Bill, another reason I’m less than enamoured with the Clearaudio is their main bearings. They tend to be either the "air-ceramic" type or the magnetic one (which I think you have??). If I’m not mistaken both of these offer a compliance which e... | |

| I'm happy but I want more, more, more RLawry,THe penny just dropped. High FIdelity Cables. Is he not the magnetic conduction guy? (Cables so expensive you have to mortgage your house) It's the only product you actually cared to mention I might add. It must have left some impression. I... | |
| I'm happy but I want more, more, more LewM said : " I disagree that this is or is becoming a rich man's hobby. The thoughtful and introspective man who is a clever shopper and a little bit handy in a workshop (not necessarily a craftsman) can achieve as much or more satisfaction as an... | |
| I'm happy but I want more, more, more Yes, it's the old computer adage, "garbage in, garbage out".What is lost at the beginning cannot be recreated at the end. Not that $2.5K is an unreasonable spend on a tonearm and turntable but these days that seems to get you an MDF chassis that h... | |
| I'm happy but I want more, more, more Bill,I'd say the cart is too good for the table & tonearm. I would really consider upgrading the Performance to another table (not necessarily Clearaudio). Which one depends on how much cash you are willing to throw at it.There are many choice... |
