| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Cantilever material. There are many 'strange' statementsabout this theme. Consider : 'aluminum is inferior in comparison with boron, ruby , beryllium ',etc. To my mind a statement about physical property of some material should not be contradictor... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Addendum. Dear Chris, you made an important discovery without knowing what you discovered. Otherwise you would at least pronunce: Heureka. There is no way to value anything without comparison. Even 'better' assumes some, not to mention 'the best'.... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Chris, This remind me about this Jew who was complaining about his shoes:'they are killing me'. His answer about the cause was that they are too small. But when asked why he buys too small shoes his answer was: 'it feels so good when I put th... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System I thought that this J. Carr is the smartest guy among us.But he is as crazy as the rest of us:'Surrounding the turntable ( but not contacting it) would be a double -wall acoustic shild '(08-24-11). How about asking the Russiansfor the permission t... | |
| Tonearm Choice:SME or Rega? For 'just under $1000' I would look for: Micro Seiki MA-505, Technics EPA 100 or 500 and Lustre GST 801. Those can compete with the best 'modern' tonearms.Regards, | |
| Nude Turntable Project A 'plinth' is actualy not a name with refering functionbut rather a 'concept' with as many senses as the usersof the term think of. But we can determine an more precisemeaning by our discussion. I myself however will never acknowledge whatever num... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Chris, Your mother is a wise lady. You should not messwith doubtful persons. One of them is a traitor. He ordereda plinth from, will you believe this , Moldova. Former Romania or so. But the price is nearly as cheap as your steel footers ($11... | |

| Rega RB1000 cueing arm height adjustment? The pad on the cueing mechanism is fastened with a screw.With the Allen key you can loosen the screw and try toget the pad ( 'arm') higher.Regards, | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System I know some guys here in Holland who are wrestling with OTLamps for 40 years. One can call such behaviour 'persistance', 'induration' or 'obsession' but during those 40 years they made many 'solutions' for theimpendance problem . The strange thing... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Lew, You must feel 'Majestic' at present. Therumours even in Holland are that you now own the best speakers in the world; anyway the best electrostatics ever.Then you have your both sons near you so you must be a very happy guy at the moment.... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Chris, You made some kind of drilling (oil) platformfor your SP-10. Looks to me more convincing than the AT footers below the cover because this cover is very questionable as support. I would add the Stillpoints underneath the the steel 'poin... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Lew, In the first place congratulation with your birthday. In the second with your Lab 845 PX. Since you are still working I assume that you are a young gentleman incomparison with some other members. Except for those two facts(the birthday a... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Lew, I am not familiar with USA price(s) for the Reed but in Germany (www.audio-markt.de) the Reed 2A is 2440 Euro ( basic version) while, for example, Raven 10.5 cost 4000 Euro. Not a bargain but still a 'decente price'.For those with, uh, t... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Halcro, Very sorry to hear about your insomia but hopethat those painkillers are effective. Now Lew mentioned somewhere that he gets his best ideas just before going tosleep. If we can put your both in bed together some hugeHeureka may come o... |
