| Replacement for loricraft power supply To put this matter to rest:The Garrard controllers are shipping as of today.Thank you for your patience. | |
| New Schroeder linear tonearm, any thoughts? Lew, others: There is no hidden level of complexity: Frank's genius created a design of exquisitely elegant simplicity. There's an explanation of the geometry in a post on another forum, not sure if the mods will allow the reference but here goe... | |
| Replacement for loricraft power supply Re: discrete 60 Hz winding on the garrard motor. No such bunny, the motor is a standard issue twin coil shaded pole motor. The two coils can be connected in series (240V) or in parallel (120V). I assume Chris is referring to the parallel configur... | |
| Replacement for loricraft power supply No problem Lew, I'm old enough and ugly enough to take responsibility for what I have (or in this case, have not) done. | |
| Replacement for loricraft power supply Since this is out in public, I probably should respond.Firstly, let it be said that I am very aware that I have not delivered what I promised. When I went into this I had built a number of controllers using the "T" amp architecture and felt confid... | |
| High quality AC turntable motor Redglobe - No kits ever again. No point in doing a schematic, the drive uses a custom programmed chip and two custom made transformers. | |
| High quality AC turntable motor Mark Kelly here. I have no plans nor any desire to make or market a two phase controller for synch motors. As Palasr notes the support requirements for my design are too difficult to manage from Australia.The controller to which LewM refers is a s... | |
| alternative power supply for Garrard 301 For those who were involved in the group buy: I sent an email outlining what's happening to the address I have for you last week. If you have not received it please check your spam filter and / or email me and / or PM me. | |
| Garrard 301/401 audition request From his 'nik it's more likely to be a Volnay.Sorry I can't help, wrong continent and all that. | |
| How to measure tonearm effective mass LewmI have no intention of making any of this available commercially. It's slowly dawning on me that whatever ability I have as a designer, it's more than compensated by my lack of ability as a business person. | |
| How to measure tonearm effective mass Dgarretson Thanks for the clarification. Now that you mention it I saw a phot of your mod to the Terminator (on VA?) and thought it was a very clever solution. Mark Kelly | |
| How to measure tonearm effective mass Dgarretson, where you say "This set-up separates observations related to changing effective mass from observations related to changes in wand composition or length.", there is a further complication. One of the things affected by wand compositio... | |
| How to measure tonearm effective mass Correction to above post: Where I said "convert the frequency to a period (eg by inversion) and the result is a linear correlation of period shift to equivalnet mass" I should have said "convert the frequency to a period and square the result. T... | |
| How to measure tonearm effective mass For some reason the first of my two posts hasn't turned up - I've had no end of problems with this forum lately. It referred to a post on another forum, maybe that's part of it. Anyway, in it I posted a link to an improvement of my method by "mar... | |
| How to measure tonearm effective mass Damn this stupid forum software. Can't edit anything. The above post makes no sense without the original VA post which is here: http://www.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.pl?forum=vinyl&n=677434Mark Kelly |
