Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927?
Dear Cleeds, To add to your logical argument . If the premissis not true than any deduction from such premiss can't  be true. 
Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927?
The statement '' ...no other TT will...'' is obviously provocativebut make no logical sense. ''no other'' is equivalent to ''all''. If the ''all quantor'' is used without restriction we get ''set theoreticparadoxes'' . Besides how is it possible t... 
Technics EPA 100P - Tonearm
Dear chakster, Your ZYX together with ZYX Live 18 headshellis heawier than 9 g. But even your ZYX with remarcable weightof 7,9 g is not equal to 9 g.  BTW I deed not mentioned headshellsin my post.Dear jpjones, If I knew about this ''added weight'... 
Technics EPA 100P - Tonearm
Dear chakster, My introduction or context was given as (co)relation between the cartridge weight and counterweight weight.The lowest weight by Sumiko 800 is meant for the carts of+/- 6 g. My assumption was that EPA 100 is not suitable for cartsabo... 
Technics EPA 100P - Tonearm
Fletcher designed his ''Breuer'' (aka Sumiko MDC 800) as an''universal tonearm''. In contradistinction to  Breuer who refusedto provide his customers with any other counter weight than the original Fletcher designed 6 counterweights for the MDC 80... 
MM/MI Phono Stages
The question is how to get optimal results in the cheapest way.My answer is a good MM phono-pre in combination with a SUT.In my second system I use Jasmine LP2 with improved MMpart with Denon AU-S1 SUT. I started with FR-FRT-4 because ofits versat... 
Curious .. What is the compared price of your tt vs spkrs
First: value judgments or statements are not ''truth-functional''.Second: we all think in the same way; from our premisses toour conclusions or deduction. Different opinions means different premisses not ''different thinking''. So one should make ... 
Who owns/owned a Fidelity Research FR1 MK3F & what is similar but better
t_bone started the thread ''Fidelity reasearch carts'' in 2009.(see FR-7 on the net) . In the discussion JCarr recomended PMC 3while his own preference was the ''fz'' and the ''f''. Does anyone knowwhat happened with t_bone?   
FR64s & Orsonic Av-1s Effective mass ?
Dear Lew, I admire the ''mechanical beauty'' of the FR-64s ofwhich I own the silver and the copper version. I also own the Ikeda345 which is, according to J. Carr, Ikeda's best. But I have no preference  for one above the other. Cleeds, Whatever o... 
FR64s & Orsonic Av-1s Effective mass ?
Dear Lew, You are right about Raul. He is never ''confused'' aboutthose whom he does not like. Say Dertonarm. Well if Dertonarm was ,uh, more critical about those damn FR/64/66 Raul may haveliked them. The strange thing however is that cleeds sold... 
what is the problem with too much tracking force?
Dear stringreen, The intention of the designer will not do.All carts producers depend for their parts from their  supplier.The most get cantilever/styli combo's, the coils and the ''rubberring'' from elsewhere. We all (except Raul) know what ''low... 
what is the problem with too much tracking force?
Dear Lew, I don't like advertising except when some interestingstory is, uh, sold together with the product. But there is this otherinteresting fact. The suspension (rubber) used by Ikeda in hisFR-7 series carts is considered to be ''indestructibl... 
what is the problem with too much tracking force?
stevecham, yes your  description is more correct than my butI was aiming at the same correlation. There is this ''joint pipe''in which the cantilever is glued and on which the coil and suspensionare fastened. The VTF is working on the  cantilever ... 
FR64s & Orsonic Av-1s Effective mass ?
Dear Lew, To add to your thoughts or assumptions I would like to mention the fact that the original ''base'' or the collar holder is made from aluminum. Steel (hardened) from which the FR-64/66 are made is very difficut to process . This was the r... 
A Copernican View of the Turntable System
Inna, Despite the fact that Freud is dead we all(?) know that he would saysomething about our 3 ego's. I myself fear the ''it'' the most. The other twocan impossible explain the number of my carts and arms.
