| Attention Dunlavy Speaker owners Most DAL and Duntech speakers have sufficient bass that they will not sound good close to the front wall. Experimenting by 2" intervals I ended up with the front baffle of my Princesses (older sibling to the SC-IV (A)) 48" into the room for smooth... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Fleib, no disagreement with your comments. However speaking for myself, I do wonder sometimes if I become so "involved" with the analytical side of listening that I forget the real reason I'm doing all this anyway. More than once I've ask mysel... | |
| Multiple turntables Lew, no offense on the BSR. This one is only worth about what some here might pay for mounting hardware for their cartridge! My very first "audio" system included a BSR changer in a portable I got for Christmas while in junior high school but I ha... | |
| Multiple turntables Lew, watch your tongue! I have a BSR programable linear tracking table/arm for sale on Craig's List that I'm selling for elderly friends. I wouldn't want your comments to discourage a potential buyer. ;-) | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Professor, you identified the ultimate goal for my system - " just listening to the music instead of the gear". I became interested in audio equipment as a way to enjoy my music all the more. Unfortunately sometimes the tail wags the dog.It is dif... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Wow, be called to report for a jury selection pool, miss this forum for 36 hours and just look at the number of posts I missed!Lew, Acman, Dgob, et al, while a big fan, I only heard Coltrane live one time. That was at the Minor Key, a small club i... | |
| Any other Sony SS-AR1 owners out there? Sony's US headquarters is located in a suburb of San Diego. They were gracious enough to invite our local club, the San Diego Music and Audio Guild, to a private demo last weekend. We were told they had installed a custom sound room but that turne... | |
| Headshell wire broke Hi RF,As usual, Albert gives good advice. I can only offer a few follow up details.You didn't answer his question about soldering experience so in case you don't have that here are some specific points.* do NOT have the cartridge tab attached to t... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy My friend Raul. Thanks, got it!Or as was once suggested, "it's as clear as mud but it covers the ground."** Observation by a non-engineer. | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Tonywinsc, you have used the term "runout" several times. I believe this is intended to relate to the accurate centering of the record. But in all my years in this hobby I've only heard the term runout applied to the area at the end of the recorde... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Halcro, as I posted on 11/16 the SP-10 Mk2 manual states that table will maintain correct speed if up to 500 arms could be lowered simultaneously while tracking at 2 g. Even with an error range of 10%, it should be correct with up to 450 arms! Fro... | |
| Still great after all these years-Dunlavy SC IVs Good design does not deteriorate. Foam surrounds and electrolytic caps may need replacement in time but quality design and construction will hold up.I owned Duntech Princesses, the older sibling to the DAL SC-IV, for 19 years. My reason for sellin... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Ct, "Can someone technical explain to me what "5kg - cm" really means in laymans terms."From the SP-10 Mk2A Operating Instructions:"If 500 tonearms of 2 g. tracking force were placed on a record at the same time the turntable would still maintain ... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy A friend of mine has progressed through a series of decent tts over the past few years. He started by adding a Teres rim drive to his VPI Scout (big difference, even greater than the VPI rim drive), then through a series of DD tables from Technics... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Professor, what is the difference between conical and round? -"18um contact surface for a 0.7 conical or 13um for a 0.5 round stylus"I assume that was a typo and you intended to say elliptical but I don't want to put words in your mouth. |
