Platter Upgrade for Garrard 301
Mark.Your conjecture that the platter is 'important' I willmodify in 'the most important part' of an TT. My advice is read first Pierre Lurne (Googel:Pierre Lurne;analog thoughts,e.a). It is also the most difficult part to design and manufacture. ...

'IDENTITY'The other day I was visiting my old mate Pieter with myson Vladimiir. We where for about 5 sec. inside when myson declared:'Uncle Pieter has the same!'The same what?'Pick-up of course!'My own son. Uncle Pieter owns an Thorens 160 and hes... 
Which tonearm should I keep?
Audiofeil, are we supposed to resolve the issue orthe 'paradox' of 'identity'? 'For two things to say thatthy are identical is nonsensical and for one thing to saythat it is indentical with itself says nothing' (Wittgenstein). We do not care if Gr...

Dear Rich,you are an honest and sensitive person butthis Bill 'the Audiofiel' is obviously in the wrongplace for 'tanding hes business';he should try advertesingbut elswhere.Cheers 
Which tonearm should I keep?
Audiofeil. Nobody is trying to 'banter and make fool'of Rich. On the conrary;everyone is trying to help.Besides if Rich feels offended then he can speak forhimself. Are you some kind of lawyer for both Rich andGregory?Cheers 
Which tonearm should I keep?
Dear Raul,I have,I think,some kind of (pre)advantage inour discussion.Why? Wel I've read all of your contributionsto our forum ;some more then once ather more than 5or6times.So if one has,say,1000 statements or propositions tohes disposal and the ... 
Which tonearm should I keep?
Dear Raul,I owned EPA 100 and knew that Tech.500 (from 1969)was an 'low mass arm' ,designed for MM carts. Butbecause I have seen your name I checked the issue(Googel: Technics tonearms,vintage data). Both ofthe Richs armtubes have an eff.mass of 8... 
Which tonearm should I keep?
Hi Rich. I think that you should first deciid wichcart you like to keep. Despite the authority of Raul(I admire the guy immensely) the only cart that iscompatible with the Technics is the Musik Maker.My personal preference is FR-64 s (to keep) but... 
The best phono stage out there?
Ecka Battery povered phono-stage.I forget to mention that those are 'rechargeble' batterysand that one can change them after 6-7 years self.I also forget to mention that even Raul can't fulfillthe conditions implied by the implication.I.e. compari... 
The best phono stage out there?
Ecka. Battery povered phono-stage.BTW the question as stated is impossible to answer becauseof the 'implication': comparition of,say,20+ phono-stages.My experience is in some sense 'onesided'. My first batteryphono was ASR 'Basis' with separate po... 
Linn LP-12 still competitive with the very best?
I am at an age that I regulary must ask: What is thequestion?I assume that the most members are much younger but Isuggest that thy should also ask this question.The question as stated presupposes some acquaitance orexpirienece with both: Linn-LP12... 
Linn LP-12 still competitive with the very best?
Dazzdax, the logic of your statement is (as your jokes)an enigma to me.If I understand your statement correctlythen your claim is:'the many upgrades of Linn intendend the same sound'.The logic presupposes,if you mean 'the same' in logicalsense, th... 
Linn LP-12 still competitive with the very best?
The updates,the platter.' but' the bearing.In my updates I stated the presupposition that theplatter of Linn is well designed and made so no updatesby this 'part'.But if Lurne is right about the inclusionof the bearing in the 'disign concept' then... 
Linn LP-12 still competitive with the very best?
The updates.I am ,qua outlook, on the side of Schipo but fot thecontext I must refer to Raul:'If the design is soundthen why so many updates?'Rauls context was 'tonearms' and I presupose that hemeant Graham (?).I mentioned my Audiomeca J1 but not ... 
Linn LP-12 still competitive with the very best?
Mosin, I am not sure about your intentions but I fearthe worst. It is a very naive presupposition that a'lexicon' is a kind of authority in linguistic matter.I am more familiar with linguistic theorys then analogtools (logical: Frege,Wittgenstein,...
