| Replace my Technics SH-10B3 Obsidian SP10 base? JB, Technics offered three plinths over time for the SP-10 Mk 2 and 3 series motor units. Yours, the SH-10B3 was the lightest at 26.5 lbs. Next, the SH-10B5 weighed about 38 lbs. and the last one offered, the SH-10B7 was 42 lbs. I can't be certain... | |
| Why mono? Sorry Yogiboy but as you see from the good advice offered so far, there are not just a few simple answers.But I might suggest answers start with how many mono records you own (i.e. how much time will you spend listening to mono?) and how anal you ... | |
| Azimuth and the Fozgometer Madfloyd, I picked one up Friday from Audio Revelations and Jay had at least one remaining in stock. Check with him -http://www.audiorevelation.com/cre/index.php | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, regarding your point of agreement on eliminating the "seven filters/veils", I still sometimes wonder about detachable headshells and their additional connections. I know you favor them to allow "fine tuning" for mass and resonance in matchin... | |
| Azimuth and the Fozgometer I printed out the manual for the Fozgometer (thanks Nsgarch) after a bit of figuring to keep the pages in proper sequence -- first page blank on back side, then remaining pages back to back for 2/3 and 4/5.It all seems pretty simple but I have a q... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Ctaudio15, I would think for $5-800 you could easily find a Dyna ST 70 and upgrade it (cleaning connectors, controls, and switch, and replacing caps and weak tubes), or one already upgraded. If you check with 213Cobra he will agree with the musica... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dave, many, many years ago some company offered an accessory damper attachment to clip to the headshell. As I remember it there was a small, soft pad to contact the record to assist in stabilizing the arm. I never heard one so cannot comment on ef... | |
| DUNLAVY SC-VI OK, sounds like some options may still be open here so I'll jump in one more time.Since you are/will be building the room, why square? If you are locked in to a foundation already constructed, look for ways to open the new room into an existing sp... | |
| DUNLAVY SC-VI A good friend had Duntech Princess (more similar to DAL SC-IV) in a 20x20 room with a 9' vaulted ceiling and they sounded fantastic.HOWEVER, read any source on acoustic design and they all recommend against a square room (avoid standing wave reinf... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lew, I don't mean to sound picky but your comments are normally quite precise. In describing your 980LZS audition you stated, "This brought it back to life, so there is some life left in the stylus after all." That could imply to a newbie that pla... | |
| Well Tempered Classic or Technics SP10Mk2 Bob, looks like you have sufficient response to make your decision. But I'll add a little reinforcement.Years ago I owned an original (square motor) WTTT and arm. It played music but was responsive to improvements such as the new black platter, a ... | |
| How far do you sit from your speakers Awahlster, I dont't mean to sound rude but why would you ask this without identifying your speakers or room condition? How far away that I sit has absolutely nothing to do with your listening situation.Monitor speakers, FRD or two and 2.5 way spea... | |
| DBP-10 Protractor Instructions...... I have read Raul's posts for the past three years or more, exchanged personal messages with him, and had the pleasure of meeting him in person when he visited my city. I believe he has been one of the most valued posters on Audiogon in sharing his... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I never read about the "Temperature Defensive" Dumper but a friend has an EPC-100 Mk 4 that he bought new, oh so many years ago. He always claimed it was the most musically accurate cartridge he ever owned (he has quite a bit of experience making ... | |
| Name the tube amp in the Lexus commercial Guess it was not a very successful commercial, it was for Acura, not Lexus!http://www.coloribus.com/adsarchive/tv-commercials/acura-excuses-tube-amp-646405/ |
