OMG, just removed my speaker grills and the sound just opened up to a new level! @geoffkait Quad 57s. Took my perfect metal grills off. You haven't lived until you pull 80 staples embedded in wood from a creaky frame. I was expecting a massive difference what with all that metal. Not that big a change but I rest easier knowing... | |
Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive @scar972 There's a photo on my System page. It's an aluminum light grease bearing with POM linings and ceramic ball. Made by a guy in Asia. SPH. sphBearing AT gmail com | |
What was wrong with the P-mount ? Nothing. You can still buy them at the lower end of the market. Like a Toyota Corolla. | |
Bill Withers has passed One of the greats. Saddened because we're all going the same path. | |

Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive I replaced the bearing in my 401 idler and the improvement was transformative. So much so, that anyone with an original is not hearing what the table is capable of. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Cazzati, Fontana, Marini, Telemann / Gerard Schwarz - A Baroque Trumpet Recital (Nonesuch 1972)Solid recording and great music. | |

Whats on your turntable tonight? Rimsky-Korsakov, Münchner Symphoniker Orchestra, Hermann Schneider, Alberto Lizzio - Sheherezade, Op. 35 (Zafiro 1977)Third movement, andantino quasi allegretto. Violin gets me every time. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? I keep meaning to get a copy of Tusk. Heard some of it on the big Harbeth 40.2 and it sounded amazing. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Les McCann & Eddie Harris - Swiss Movement (Atlantic 1969)Following the last album played. Man, the difference between an analog recording and a digital CD reissued on vinyl. | |
What other Hobbies or Interests Do You Have? The best thing about the SARS-CoV-2 virus is not having to commute to work. Three more hours for listening to music and closely monitoring Prime food delivery windows. | |
SUT vs. Phono preamp So the price removes slouchiness? |
