Tone arm length Dear @thom_at_galibier_design : Nice to see you in Agon again. I only want to make some comments about the information in that link: first is that J.Ellison made his spreadsheet geometries named/labeled it in the rigth way ( because he kno... | |
TONEARM DAMPING : DAMPED OR NOT ? ? USELESS ? ? WELCOMED ? ? Dear @westcoastaudiophile : " great arms + headshells + carts don’t need damping! " I agree with you if that happens in an LP analog perfect universe, unfortunatelly that statement is way elusivein the real world where some where we all we n... | |
Tone arm length Dear @macg19 : I’m in agreement with what wereposted by @mikelavigne and @mijostyn. This link confirm it and came from the SAT tonearm designer ( the tonearm has a tag price of over 60K. ) : https://swedishat.com/SAT%209%22%20vs%2012%22%20... | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm @richardkrebs : " How much stylus misalignment and hence distortion, stylus drag causes, " In any kind of tonearm/cartridge always exist the stylus friction distortion during playback. At microscopic levels the stylus tip even has several small ... | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm Sorry again, this was my first post to Richard about that I deleted: @richardkrebs : " AS is set by the user at a constant magnitude.." Normally the tonearms designers design the AS mechanism to be not constant in magnitude but going from les... | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm and please don't forget the cartridge compliance important role too. Now, I don't need an explanation how is that that skating force can the stylus tip under that tremendous and infernal pressure at the tip to spin. Common sense says:NO WAY. ... | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm Dear friends : Please read this measured fact: " 26 tons of pressure per square inch at the cartridge stylus tip during its ridding " | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm I'm not looking for a the " perfect " tonearm. The best way that in the begin the cartridgecan pick up as much recorded information from the groove modulations is that the stylus tip stays centered along the LP surface grooved and taking in count ... | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm off-set angle between A and B is the same what changes is the overhang. Zenith change I never seen the measured, no problem. We can’t introduce more variables as zenith, LP off-center, micro waves, macro waves, VTF, VTA, AZ, and the like. Issu... | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm Important issue is stylus tip angle. Now, Löfgreen A to B alignment amkes almost no significant tracking distortion level modification ( only changes where the levels change between null points. ) and still lower than no-offset angle tonearm desig... | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm And please don't forget too how good or not the tonearm is self damped by design. | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm That's why too cartridge compliance and frequency ( cartridge/tonearm ) resonance are so critical an important in the grooves tracking issues. R. | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm Dear @richardkrebs : For me the main issue it’s not if we can see that the cantilever move to the rigth side ( the tonearm ASmechanism helps a little gainst that " rigth side " magnitude. ) the main issue for me is if the stylus tip is in the groo... | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm Forgot: what you like is not the true issue ( at least with me. Yous did not get my point. ) but what is wrong or good. R. | |
Discuss The Viv Lab Rigid Arm Again, not perfect but second best option behind the LT, that's all. What you like is what you like and it's not my " business " and I can't disagree with what you like. End of dialogue because you never posted any fact/measurements for what y... |
