| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Thucan, you said "you also stated that the Garrard 301 is one of yor likes."Yes, that's true. But when I say "like" it is totally different than my saying something is state of the art. "Like" means I find it pleasant, easy to listen to, does not ... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Thucan, we could talk for hours and hours and hours and hours about different tables and their sound with the same arms and cartridges - which is the way I make EVERY comparison. Then you or someone else could say that I did not use the right arm ... | |
| Do 45 RPM records need higher anti-skate setting? @ Ralph: You ask "Also, if the platter is at rest there will be no skating force at all. That was the basis for my response above; are you saying there is zero(0) change regardless of rotational speed?"Answer: The difference in the rest condition ... | |
| Do 45 RPM records need higher anti-skate setting? Let's put some physics and math to it for Ralph. 1. Skating force is always in the same direction, never changing from + to -. If we denote the inward radial force (skating force) as positive then it remains positive. 2. The magnitude of the vecto... | |
| Do 45 RPM records need higher anti-skate setting? Dear Lewm, did you note that my "centrifugal force" is in quotes, thus trying to indicate I am quoting one of the many know-nothings that spout phalse physics ad nauseum, and not using it as a real term?Now that you'll noice my quotation marks and... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? The open-mindedness is astounding:ttweights: "Yes there is no replacement for torque and direct coupling"I guess no further thought required! | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Replying to Peterayer:Peter: Omsed, Do you have a preference for drive type or arm type? I'm curious about which modern top tables you do like. Omsed: After extensive comparisons the best sound I have heard is off of a belt drive turntable. Howeve... | |
| VPI Traveler vs Pro-ject Xpression III? Stevecham, a wow and flutter meter and an accurate test disc will open your eyes.ANd your last sentence about most or all instability coming from the off center hole is flat out wrong. Some does, yes. But is that a reason to throw out speed instab... | |
| Do 45 RPM records need higher anti-skate setting? Skating force is the radial component of stylus friction. The stylus friction vector is tangential and can be resolved into orthonogal components, one running through the tonearm pivot and one running radially. The value is sintheta x stylus frict... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Tbg, you may very well have the same opinion if you heard an array of turntables here, moving the same arm and cartridge (not just the same model, the same serial numbers!) in a system where I can demo any number of really great (and using various... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? Yes, Tbg, I've only been designing in audio for 30 years, only tested (analytically and listening)about 150 turntables, only designed several dozen audio products, so I bet I would throw away everything I've learned upon having another Lenco!Funny... | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? .....And the guys with their Lencos, and the guys with their Micro-Seikis, .........on and on with the great discoveries of how great the old stuff was. Funny all the best sounding turntable makers who knew the most went out of business. Bad luck ... | |
| VPI Traveler vs Pro-ject Xpression III? It's all about speed stability. Making up a ridiculous acronym for something as simple as speed stability had a lot of us looking for a deeper meaning than that which is there. | |
| Why will no other turntable beat the EMT 927? And the guys with their Thorens say the same thing. And the guys with their Technics SP10. And with their Garrards. The modern tables ALL missed the boat. Yet they come over to a true, modern state of the art table in a cost no object system and w... | |
| VPI Traveler vs Pro-ject Xpression III? PRAT: For years I wondered what the devil folks were dreaming about with this term. It's hardly something you can put your finger on IMO. But, having perfect pitch, some tables would drive me crazy - nearly all those with servo circuits, and many ... |
