| New Technics SL 1200 GAE So, is there any update on the Technics 1200 GAE vs the SP10 mk2 ?I am considering one of these TTs. Either I will get the 1200 G/GAE with the Time-Step mods (linear PSU) or the SP10 mk2 refurbished by Krebs or Albert Porter. Do we have a clarity ... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Albert says that his Technics' sound is closest to master tape dubs played on his Studer A810 of any turntable he has ever heard. If he is right, and I assume he almost certainly is, who needs Walker, TechDas, TW, Brinkmann etc ? It is also much l... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) This is a problem area. Plinth is essentially a vibration management system and that is "the" most important aspect of a TT (even more than absolute speed stability). The most widely used method to build a plinth is to stack layers of birch ply or... | |
| Low noise, neutral, high current power cord for wall to power distributor I do not suggest in any way the the AN isis is the best cord out there. It is just very suitable to this thread title "Low noise, neutral, high current power cord". It costs only $500 is something that grabs attention. Secondly it works equally we... | |
| Low noise, neutral, high current power cord for wall to power distributor The thing is, an Audio Note isis power cord costs just about $500. It was rather laughable how acceptable and in someways it actually sounded compared to a $12k Ansuz Diamond power cord and clearly beat the $5k Ansuz ceramic power cord. It is a ve... | |
| Low noise, neutral, high current power cord for wall to power distributor As an update, I tried some Ansuz ceramic, DCCA supreme eminence power cords. Both sounded clean but Neither of them sounded honest. Dcca was dark and rich, Ansuz airy and thin. But the power cord that gets it right is Audio Note ISIS. It is just a... | |
| Turntable and Rack vibration control @anvil_turntables, would you allow a home demo ? | |
| whats the very best sounding cables for realistic money Go studio way and get the Gotham 2 x 6mm speaker cables. After trying many cables this is the quietest, cleanest and most unvoiced speaker cable I could find. It does not have its own sound that I could detect.http://gothamcables.com/en/gothamcabl... | |
| Turntable and Rack vibration control As I dig deeper into this subject, at least for the Garrard it is all about vibration control or isolation. Mechanical vibration and electrical vibration both needs to be handled to the maximum and that too with our own intelligence. For example, ... | |
| Turntable and Rack vibration control I tend to agree with @jollygreenaudiophile2. I tried the iSeismometer app on my iPhone. It shows very very minor vibrations in the z axis. But the reading looks the same whether I place the iPhone on the TT platter, plinth, rack or on floor. No di... | |
| Turntable and Rack vibration control I just managed to borrow a set of Townshend Seismic pods under the plinth. The sound is totally in a different level. The grainy, noisy background is 90% gone and what I am hearing is a very open airy and free sound. That is with the deck plugged ... | |
| Turntable and Rack vibration control Thanks guys,I need to clarify few things. My floor is concrete but with wooden parqueting on top, so there are no foot fall problems.I am just looking for a good vibration control for quieter playback. One of the achilles heel of using turntables ... | |
| Turntable and Rack vibration control I wonder if the TT sits on a granite stone with a set of metal cones between them, wouldnt it cause the sound to harden up ? I mean, wouldnt the vibrations that reflects back from granite would also make things harder and harsher ? | |
| Turntable and Rack vibration control Thanks guys. I will try to get a demo of Townshend seismic pods. Are there any specific model of Newport and Vibraplane platforms that would suit a TT installation ? | |
