Turnable database with TimeLine I have just learned that the TimeLine flashes 8 times per 1.8 seconds or 8 times per one revolution. That is why there are eight laser dashes around the room at all times. I had thought it was six. So yes, if you are looking at one dash near the t... | |
Pass Labs Point 8 Series info Once the .8 is established, the .5 will probably be discontinued. Once that happens prices for the .5 will drop and used Pass amps will be a relative bargain in the market considering the sonics, build quality and service.Prices for new .5 product... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine Halcro, I just shared what Ron Sutherland told my dealer yesterday. I had been under the impression that there was an early version with one strobe and a new version with six strobes. That must be incorrect. So you must be saying that all versions... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine I tried using my Fieldpiece digital tachometer again last night. I tried three l locations and placed the device on a stationary platform. In each test, the device read 33.XXX but the XXX had slightly different values at each location. These speed... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine Lewm, I also thought that there is a new version of the TimeLine with more lasers around the perimeter of the device. However, I just spoke to a dealer today who confirmed with Roy Sutherland himself, that there is only one TimeLine version and th... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine Ketchup, I'll take you up on your offer. How do I get my email to you so that you can PM me? Thanks. | |
Turnable database with TimeLine Halcro, that new Victor TT-101/3 arms video is quite impressive. My belt drive could not do that. I do see the value of testing with and without the arm being in the groove. Unfortunately, my Timeline is gone so I can't retest or shoot the video.Y... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine Halcro,I, for one, do not claim that a belt drive turntable with heavy platter is not subject to stylus drag. I thought I made the point quite obvious in my earlier comments. One can set the speed of the SME with no stylus in the groove. Then when... | |
Magico Q5 and Pass Labs XA200.5 Synergy Very interesting question and combination. Unfortunately, I don't have direct experience with the XA200.5 and have only heard the Q5 twice, briefly, so my comments may be meaningless to you. However, I'm a big fan of both Pass and Magico. As you, ... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine Thanks Jfrech. I used to clean the belt on my SME Model 10 about once a year. I've just ordered two new belts for my 30/12 which was new in March 2012. I'll clean the belt I have in the next day or two and see if I notice a difference. I sent the ... | |
Turn table speed variation question Syntax, You make some good points about enjoying favorite music on low fidelity mediums. And about the importance of marketing in high end audio today. Do you remember from the Munich High End Show 2013 what the DD table and "regular running belt ... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine Hello Tony, Those were my thoughts also. I'm using an iPhone and I don't know what the fps rate is. I'll look into it. However, I returned the TimeLine to Albert Porter on Tuesday because I had recorded the various turntables around me. I don't re... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine Halcro,Yes, something must be wrong with the Denon, though it actually sounds pretty good. Thanks for posting the results of the Raven. It appears to be slightly slow. One of the design differences with the SME is that the length of "free belt" be... | |
Turnable database with TimeLine I wish my DP45 had speed adjustability. I would have tried to get it a bit more accurate before taking the video. | |
Turnable database with TimeLine My SME has an adjustable motor controller. The SP10 has a controller that is not adjustable. The Denon has no controller and I'm not sure about Halcro's Victor. |
