| Can you run the HANA SL MC at 100 ohms? @rrm 1. add up the coil ohms plus loading ohms, e.g. 30 + 100 = 1302. divide the loading ohms by the number from step 1, e.g. 100 / 130 = 0.7693. take the log (base 10) of the result from 2. and multiply that result by 20; that number represents t... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Sorry man for jumping in, I wouldn’t want to "scam" anyone. If I had dealt his products I would feel embarrassed and ashamed right now. | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? I doubt there is any "grandson" in this. And PP "friends/family" is only for people you ACTUALLY know and trust excessively, or in rare cases for amounts of money you absolutely don’t mind losing.Kemper man, what did you think you were going to ge... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? And how exactly did he goad you into paying via PP "family/friends"? | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? I wonder if there even is a wife "Lynn" at all. If there is, does she know she’s being repeatedly used as the grown-up equivalent of "the dog ate my homework" time and time again? Mark always has the family/health woe-is-me excuse, warmed-up and o... | |
| Seeking opinions on Clearaudio vs. SOTA tables Just found this thread I started from over 5 years ago. What I ended up doing was buying a Clearaudio Innovation Wood (spring 2013) with a Graham Phantom Supreme. Great gear, but my rack at the time, even with lead-shot fill, was NOT up to the tas... | |
| Dynavector XX-2 MkII, riding too low? Awesome! Yeah to be honest, I’d be perfectly fine running a cart like that. At the end of the day, all of these are hand made/finished and none are absolutely perfect - you can always spot something a bit "off". No need to worry for now. | |
| Dynavector XX-2 MkII, riding too low? That can be enough clearance, but if it’s much lower than other units of the same model then that would still be of concern. Also unclear is if the suspension’s fully settled, or whether it will sag more over time. I’ve had Koetsus with just about... | |
| Can you run the HANA SL MC at 100 ohms? My old dealer sold me one of those DB-Systems kits when I first got into vinyl, ~ 11 years ago. The adapter cable & plugs/jacks are very plain, and won’t satisfy anyone with audiophile nervosa and 4 or 5-figure cables, but the kit is very hand... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Well Mark’s latest ruse definitely bought him enough time to slither off stage. There’s not one nice bone in his body. Kemper looks like he was played - at least I hope so, compared to the alternative. Don't be so naive next time. | |
| Can you run the HANA SL MC at 100 ohms? 30 ohms is pretty high for a cartridge of that output. At 100 ohms loading you’ll lose around 2.28 dB of signal in theory (relative to infinite ohms "no loading"; and about 1.65 dB down relative to the recommended 400 ohms loading, again in theory... | |
| Counterfeit DL103? I think it is less likely a fake/counterfeit and more likely just borked in some way that causes severe aberrations in the output level (variable by frequency). As mentioned before, there is just no money in faking a 103 that actually looks convin... | |
| Cartridge alignment tool The Geo-Disc certainly adjusts for any arm at any P2S distance; it’s a true universal. It does this by requiring a 1st step of aligning the disc via line-of-sight’ing its raised ridge to point directly at the tonearm’s pivot. By that step, the 1-p... | |
| Herron VTPH-2A vs Rogue Ares Magnum Will do! Happy with both of my systems as-is, so this is just experimentation for fun and to satisfy curiosity - while hoping for a potential sonic upgrade, of course. I won’t sell the Ares until I know for sure. I'm probably about 3 weeks out fro... | |
| FR64 cartridge suggestions The Cadenza Bronze matches superbly with the FR64fx. Different setups, (actually the FR64fx is on the much cheaper table) but I definitely think it sounds better there than on my Graham Phantom (and it sounds pretty damn good on the Phantom too) -... |
