| Lustre GST-801 Tonearm help Hi Abill, The wire in your Lustre is silver so my adviceis to use silver from headshell-tags to the phono-pre.The best price-quality (co) relation I know of are:1. Aural Harmony 5 Din ,1.2m ($ 169);2. Jelco HS-20 headshell ($ 50).The Jelco is made... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul, You are an gentlemem; you could ask:' why deed you bay 4 MM carts when you have no MM inputs on your phono-pre?' Ie such behaviour 'may' look very strange...Well first of all when ever you recommended some cart they become not only much... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul, I never participated in your topic because myBasis Exclusive 'Gold' has no MM inputs. But because of youI already bought 4 MM carts. I like to express my hope thatyou will be as soon as possible healthy . Ie in your own thread.Very kind... | |
| I asked about the stabi s with stogi s tone arm Andifergy, I don't intend to scare you but you should checkif your Basis is 'the right one'. There were some problemswith 2004/5 versions. See: the abs. sound and what H.Pearson wrote about. I am 'in' the ASR gear for some timeand owned the 'wrong... | |
| Which cart works with Ortofon AS309S 12inch arm Fld, 'risky buseness' to recommend some cart while Raul already 'have spoken'. But I was very curious reg. thisPhase Tech P-3G. On the one hand because this cart got somany awards in Japan. On the other because this cart causedsome,eh, 'panic' in ... | |
| Please recommend used tonearm under $1K Hi T_bone, So far as I know you live in Japan and you mademe very curious about all of those tonearms that you avoidto name. Alas I don't understand your reasons. On the contrary because you can provide as with many informationsthat we are not fam... | |
| Please recommend used tonearm under $1K Dear Raul, Your 'subjective factors' are of course involvedbut I disagree regarding the 'subjective hearing'. As I putit elswhere 'we hear' (normal hearing pressuposed) in the same way. But we do interpret what we hear with all our brain, experien... | |
| Please recommend used tonearm under $1K Dear all, an tonearm is an mechanical 'device' so one should think that the most issues are 'objective' in 'nature' or according to physical Laws . As Raul put it 'its all about the design'. He should elaborate on this 'argument' more but there ar... | |
| Rega 700 rewire Hi Reb, While I am trying to 'get' those mods as cheap aspossible you are persistent in the opposite. Why should onebuy an expensive tonearm and then rewire the thing?For the Rega 300 this makes sense in (co)relation to the price. Roy Gandy gets +... | |
| Rega 700 rewire Reb1208, The ground wire one can change for $1. Onscrew the pillar plug,onsolder the ground from the left(?) channel and extend the ground wire from there.One will needan small hole in the pillar plug to extend the wire. But one can of course pay ... | |
| Rega 700 rewire Birdmanpa, I am not a historian but there was some kind of'Ancien Regime' in the 1970's. Ie the regime of MM carts.To impress your mates you needed,say,an ADC 25 or Shure V-15. The aim was to get at least 90 Mu, without any buzz in the R channel, ... | |
| Rega 700 rewire Dear Birdmanpa, You should not 'blow over'. The EAR 834P isan decent phono-pre but an decent LOMC for $1000? If you persist on LOMC then there is no escape from second hand 'choice'. A tricky busyness. So you should check Rauls MM (contra-revoluti... | |
| Please recommend used tonearm under $1K Hi Applebook, I agree with Raul regarding the Lustre butI want to add the EPA-100. Both are fantastic and can compete with any other regardless of price. I own both i.a.Regards, | |
| Rega 700 rewire Dear Frogman, Roy Gandy is known as a guy with very strongopinions regarding (for our context) the wiring and the rigidity. So no VTA adjustment of any kind in (co) relationto the 'importance' of the rigidity. To the critics of the wiring in his R... | |
| Rega 700 rewire Learsfool, According to Kershaw (Audiophilia,nov.2001 ; Google: Rega 600) the Rega 600 got the same wire as Rega 900. Ie 'low capacitance Klotz'. Since all those Regas areactualy the same 'construction' the wiring and 'selected bearings' are the p... |
