| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! Thanks testpilot. I've heard of that for the Lovan racks. I'm still debating whether to bother doing anything like that for the rack. | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! geoffkait,And others will say low frequency seismic vibration isn't the vibration we need to normally worry about; we need to worry about how susceptible to vibration/ringing/feedback is the surface you place your turntable on (that is, so it won'... | |
| Not much discussion around MBL pokey77,Of course these are subjective opinions. But that's audio for you.I've been comparing live vs reproduced sound for a long time. I had many speakers pass through my room and had live recordings I'd made of familiar sounds, my acoustic guit... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! folkfreak,Appreciate the input. What aspect specifically of the design do you think would amplify sub sonic interference? | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! mulveling,Glad you found it useful.Though after a conversation with another audiophile pal - who has long been into turntables - I’m unsure how useful the info is. He suggests that when I’m doing the tapping test around the turntable with the iPho... | |
| Not much discussion around MBL Sorry about your "bad news," geoffkait. I don't like how loud MBL tends to do their demos; I don't think this helps the sound. I can't be sure it was CES 2000, or the year before or after (or THE SHOW) as I attended a couple around those years.... | |
| Not much discussion around MBL Well, if you want some talk on MBLs...here’s a bunch :)I own MBL speakers. (As well as currently owning Thiel 3.7 and 2.7 speakers, Spendor, Waveform, Hales...and like many here I’ve owned plenty of different speaker types and brands).The first ti... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! BTW, interesting test results:In putting away some audio boxes I re-discovered my old Auralex Subwoofer platform that I never really used. It’s a thicker-foamed version of the turntable platform. I tried a little experimenting with the Auralex and... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! mulveling,Thanks for the input. Believe me, I'd love to get a new rack. Unfortunately the Adona racks are too big. I'm working with a really restricted level of space, which is one reason the small size of the Lovan has worked well for many yea... | |
| My Home Speakers, My Car, and Me...The Ballad of What's Going Wrong? Just a note, evolvist: while smaller speakers can be easier to integrate in a smaller room, you don't have to give up on bigger speakers. If you place them right, and treat the room right, you can have the glory of full range sound in a small ... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! Audioquest4life,Sorry, I missed your comment.Thanks for the welcome! Wow, the Apollon! And I thought my Transrotor table was a beast! Must be real fun. I just received my Townshend Seismic Pods which I plan to use under the wood platform I’m havin... | |
| Thiel Owners Bill 10907,Since you welcome all opinions...here’s mine :-)Don’t rely on cables as an attempt to tone control. Aside from the dubious claims that they will make much difference in the first place, if cable manufacturers are changing the sound, the... | |
| How Much $ for my Micro Seiki DD 40 Turntable? Ok, it looks like I should take this to another forum. Thanks yogiboy. | |
| Thiel Owners zkga,Glad it worked out for you. Your experience is the type of lesson many audiophiles could benefit from; you'll get far more from the free tweak of playing with speaker placement than from spending money playing cable roulette. (And of course... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! jab, mulveling,Thanks for the additional input. I really appreciate it.Having priced a custom rack, I'm still stuck for now with the Lovan until I can afford a new rack.I'm going to have a maple butcher block made, I figure about 2 to 2 1/2".The ... |
