Why are modern arms so ugly? Dear Halcro, I think that the most people are 'context oriented'. Ie 'art and beauty' have some bondaries regarding the question what one will 'recognise' a such.I myself never thought about tonearms in this 'context'.But the FR-64S 'awaked' in me... | |
electrostats vs ribbon drivers Apogee Scintilla is the best speaker I have ever heard.The only problem was the very low impendance. There seems to be some Greek producer (Omega?)who try to rivive thislegende. The real problem of Apogee was the patent issuewith Magnepan. No way ... | |

Why are modern arms so ugly? Dear Tobes, I need to 'shoot' at you. I understand the aestetical part of your statement but the Breuer is not a 'simple' tonearm. On the contrary. This tonearm as wellas the sibling Sumiko MDC 800 are the perfect illustrationhow looks can be dece... | |

Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear David, I have no idea about dimensions but Lukatschek,the owner designer by Benz, is experimenting with short(er) cantilever designs. My Ruby 3S has a shorter cantilever than Ruby 2.Regards, | |
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Dlaloum, Even a native speaker is not pressuposed to be a 'knowledgable person'. So, it seems, the understanding is not only about language. The sequence of words seems also to be very important ( say prefix,infix and postfixamong morphems). ... | |
Turntable advice-thorens questions Linn LP-12 is the best Thorens I know; better bearing and platter. A good second hand should be within your price range.Regards, | |
