| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? Rushton, you stated that 25K would not be your point of diminishing returns, and neither would it be for the OP.Now I'm just sitting here with my buttered popcorn waiting for some examples of the kind of rig someone would chose, when 25K did not a... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? Rushton, I was doing something unrelated to music or stereo, and it hit me, "Rushton said 25K was not the point of diminishing returns for him".

| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Audioman58, I would like more information on that; is it good enough for resell? Not that it matters a great deal. Nichicon Gold are some good Electrolytics. It was 10 years ago when I changed all my Electrolytics that weren't too big, to "Blac... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Jafant, I believe your fears have good foundation. It's nice to know someone else has discovered those ratings to be valid, at least in class "A". When I went on a mission to verify those ratings was sometime ago, it was when high end salons exi... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. gs5556, I never change any value one iota, I'm not an engineer; but thanks for the tip. | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Randy, there was a guy begging me to come over and evaluate his system. Finally I found the time and went over; before the review, he pointed out a lot of "Class A components"; his rig looked like an add out of Stereophile. After listening for a... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? The question was "What's the point of diminishing returns"? And then he mentions 25K; well it's long before you get to 25K for people with the bucks, who can see down the road. If the question had been what's the ultimate rig, that would have be... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Dlcockrum, I just happened to think of something funny; while my wife was always worried about other women then, now she laughs when I threaten to see other women.Life is strange that way.Enjoy the music. | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Noromance, I did industrial soldering, including aerospace for a living. Although you're right in most cases, in this case, the component case is not big enough to accommodate these huge capacitors, and I will have to expand it.Although these cap... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Dicockrum, I spent a number of years going to " high end salons" and discovering what it was all about. So much so that my wife swore I was seeing another woman; after all, what red blooded male would spend that much time listening to music.That... | |
| Reel to Reel tape decks I am religious in regard to degaussing; after every recording I degauss the tape heads. Recorded reels must be far enough away not to be affected. I clean tape heads with a cotton swab after every use. I have rubber cleaner for the pinch roller... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? I hate to bust everybody's bubble, but it has been said that the truth shall set you free, and I come to this forum with a bit of truth, that contradicts a few other truths.I was just listening to some music from a compilation of the 100 best jazz... | |
| RIP Jillian Johnson The Figs Vinyldisc, as the OP, you made everything crystal clear at the beginning; Jillian Johnson was a wonderful person, and a very tragic loss to her community, her Bio confirms that; but could you expand your last post, and be more specific. | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? Mapman, when I bought my used Technics over 5 years ago, I replaced all the transistors, with the same one's it had originally, and replaced all the capacitors with "Black Gates". That was after I discovered it was easy to work on.Now, I can reco... |
