| How long does it take you to install a cartridge? It depends on who is doing it. LOLI always try to weasel out of the task. Besides, I have friends who do it a lot better than I can.(Otherwise, maybe thirty minutes.) | |
| Any decent TTables with a semiautomatic arm I agree with Albert. The old Dual 1019 is decent enough, and it isn't very expensive. Believe it, or not, there is a certain charm about the sound of it that stands alone, in my opinion. It would be my first choice. | |
| Com'on...confess.......... I have an extremely rare one made by the Mel Lyman cult called American Avatar. Only 10,000 were pressed, and one of the Lyman followers who withdrew from the group paid for all the production costs. He was Jim Kweskin of Jug Band fame. Kweskin wa... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Thuchan,Here is no place to promote my turntable, but I will say that it is not a Lenco. That really isn't a fair comparison because it is an entirely different idler, like the EMT 927 is an entirely different idler. If you are coming to RMAF, we ... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? David said, "Dear Mosin, isn't Oswald Mills yours?"No, any association I had with that company was dissolved years ago. Saskia is my only product. | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Dkarmeli,Thanks for the kind words, but I think you have me confused with someone else because I don't have a website, yet. I am proud of my work, though. I suppose I should stop stalling on that the website. For me, the presentation of my work on... | |
| Why No Power Button on Some Phono Stages? Look at it this way...The doorbell on your front door always stays lit up, and its transformer always has current going to it. Should you be concerned? | |
| Cartridge for 45's Use a Denon 103, or 103R. They are relatively inexpensive, tough, and will play anything that is microgroove. Best of all, they provide 95% of the performance that one finds in top cartridges. I play 78 RPM microgroove records with one. | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Lew,I did dismiss turntables with lightweight platters, until I heard a Mitchell Cotter. The motor can provide the needed system inertia, though. By the way, the EMT 927 platter is fairly lightweight. It is around 12.5 lbs. not counting the mat, i... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Raul said,"Subject is that we must have measurements of the 927 as a reference independent of that: " I like it ", IMHO we have to know: what are we hearing with those today tipical measurements/facts?. It can't hurt if we know about."True, but th... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Raul,You asked, "Dear Mosin: What could be main targets for you or people like you when are going to design an audio item?"Dksrmeli made three points that are key, in my opinion. "They achieved that fantastic figure with a servo controlled motor, ... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Raul,"I know that you know exactly what I'm refering when I speak of neutrality on TTs."I did not understand, and I did not mean to offend. It is just that I find the term to be misleading for the reasons that Thuchan explained so eloquently in th... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? A correction.I misspoke when I said the 927's motor was made in-house. Rather, it was EMT designed, and built from scratch by a vendor. Still, it is an incredible piece of work. | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Dkarmeli,I agree on all counts. By the way, The motor for the EMT 927 was made in-house. A look at it will quickly reveal why it has never been copied. It would be pretty much cost prohibitive these days, not to mention that no turntable manufactu... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? "Climbing the Everest is not about money nor is it a BtoB market...it is about personal achievement or ego......"Perhaps, but I am convinced that the EMT is about personal achievement, not ego. Mr. Franz understood one simple truth; that the job o... |
