Another “How to choose an arm” question Many years past I went through the motions of purchasing a new Tonearm. As for all the experiences I encountered in demonstration rooms the TT's in use were always belt driven. At some events I attended there were a broader range of TT's in use ... | |

DIY TT @holmz The link is a worthwhile read, Juergen contributes within this thread on a selection of his owned TTs. There are other long term users of other Brand Models who offer reports on the impressions that have been made. It has a good selectio... | |
DIY TT @vinylzone The Self Built TT, looks very nice, the Acrylic or Polycarbonate Plinth Material is a nice touch. The Acrylic when used as a thinner sheet and assembled to be used as a CLD Structure has produced quite attractive damping measurements. ... | |
Another “How to choose an arm” question The Origin Live 'Illustrious' is a Tonearm I was demonstrated recently with a Sumiko Pearwood on a Garrad 401 in a light weight Plinth design. I know the Garrard sound well, when it is mounted onto a Massey Plinth. The marriage of all devices th... | |
DIY TT @holmz If you are interested in a range of DD TT's from various Brands, from a Vintage Era and willing to PM these to me. I can assist you with a search for some of the items, if this is something you would like a support with. | |
DIY TT @Lewn I know what a Gun Metal Platter Mat is as I own a Tenuto, I also know that a Gun Metal Platter Mat can be sourced produced in various thicknesses and weights. The Gun Metal Platter I am referring to that belongs to the owned DP 80 is a mach... | |
DIY TT @holmz The link is one that I have bookmarked in the past. It might be off interest to anybody with an interest in maintaining a A&R Cambridge 77, and that is the reason I have it saved. The Esco Paratrace has been known to myself for some t... | |
DIY TT I had used the A&R Cambridge P77 many years past and have still go the main body stored. This was the Cartridge that I felt was most impressive out of other MM's when used on my Belt Drive TT and in the early stages of my use of Idler Drives.... | |

DIY TT The OP I hope does feel there is time on their side and they do not have t rush into their decisions to acquire a TT. I have made the Aurex SR 510 known and the information below are Copy and Pastes from the user of one that guided myself towards... | |
DIY TT I have referenced a Denon DP-80 with a Gunmetal Platter as these become available for sale and might have proved attractive to the OP. From my many years of acquiring Japanese Design Vintage DD TT's, I have not seen a Gunmetal Platter as a singu... | |
DIY TT As for the 12" Arm I referred to it, as there are commonly seen configurations using a arm of this length on a Two Tonearm Plinth Design. I am not an owner of 12" Arm but do listen to them. I have listened to the SME V/12" on quite a few occasio... |
