| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Dear Lew, There is or was some saying mentioning detailsin connection with the devil but at my age I am glad whenI can remember the name of my mom. So, no wonder, I totallyforget those titanium screws. I see you are still going strongin this conne... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B There is, in my opinion, this division among us regarding ourlove for our ''components'': essentialist and holistic.Love has to do with selection and selection with intensityof our feelings for whatever. I am in love, so to speak, withspeakers, to... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B I am not sure if ''there is no such thing as gratitude'' is of''categorical nature'' but I do remember that ''our Lew''described all the capacitors (Technics?) needed for theupgrade some time or long time ago. So instead to be thankful and use the... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B Well ''not better than'' may mean equal. So chakster is allowedto believe that his TT101 is as good as SP-10, mk 3 as well SP10R.Anyway ''huge savings''. As everyone knows what we believe isthe most important thing. I believe that my SP-10,mk2 doe... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Well Lew, I consider both Dertonarm and Vindmantas (owner/designer by Reed) as genius. Those are so rare that i have noidea how to write the plural. We all (?) are familiar with Dertonarmbut not with Vindmantas. Well he is/was a real rocket scient... | |

| SP10mk2: OMA Graphite plinth vs.Dobbins plinth @best-groove, My Obsidian plinth looks exactly the same asthe one on your reference ''Here''. However instead of markerB3 my sample has ''SL-1000,mk 2''. It is not clear what you own because your description is notclear but from the context one ca... | |
| Phono (0.1- 0.22mV+) or step up for LOMC? About 10 years ago Dertonarm explained to me why he prefersSUT's and FR-7 kinds. But his SUT ''theory'' was that both impedance and inductance need to ''correspond'' for optimalresult. Because of my, uh, ignorance, I thought that I wouldneed an se... | |
| Phono (0.1- 0.22mV+) or step up for LOMC? @chakster , I assume that your ''guess'' is connected with thementioned ''mini Basis'' phono-pre. I own the whole ASR Germanartillery: two transformers (40kg each), 2 battery supply (onefor the amp the other for the phono-pre) than Emitter II (the... | |
| New SME SYNERGY Turntable! The ''crystal cables'' is established by the wife of the Siltechowner. She obviously noticed what kind of money is involvedwith cables and decided to try for her own but with the idea that(sometime) ''less is better'' which explains the thickness ... | |
| How good is the Obsidian plinth of Technics SP10 ? Dear chakster, One may think that my (meanwhile) 5 Kiseki'sare somehow connected with my musical preferences. Butthe real explanation is Lew's ''argument'' : ''the price was suchthat it was impossible to resist''. The other possible explanationis ... | |
| How good is the Obsidian plinth of Technics SP10 ? Dear Lew, Do you remember the first objections against DD TT's?Exactly what nearly happened to ''our'' MC 2000.

| How good is the Obsidian plinth of Technics SP10 ? Dear chakster, I begin to believe that either your dad or you belongto the so called ''Putins friends''. Such expensive footers and thantwice. ''Lews Kenwood'' is a kind of speaking. This does not meanhis sample but this model in general. i have... | |
| How good is the Obsidian plinth of Technics SP10 ? @chakster , My are AT 636. As far as I know only Raul ownsthe biggest kind. I am not sure if those are your AT616. BTW 60 kg capacity weight is ''overkill'' for the SP10,mk2 withObsidian plinth.Are yours for sell? If I ever get Lew's Kenwood I wil... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The statement that the ''top of the line'' cart is lesser than thefollowing ''version'' may look strange but we all (?) know theproblem with the ''light weight tonearms''. There are actually nogood one in existence while their mechanical stability... |
