| Is there a maximum length for tonearm wiring? Dear George: There are negative consequences as we increment the distance, if we can or can't hear it is always person/system dependent specially on the tonearm to preamp quality of the cable.Now you always can think to other TT like the top of th... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Travbrow: Well you are serious about with all those cartridge. Btw, I really like your Technics tonearm specially its VTA mechanism.I agree with you about the Signet ( an Audio Technica division. ) and I can say that with the new stylus thing... | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Peter: Good. The interesting point is that you already try it in a " serious " way and you learn ( like any one of us. ) on the subject.I think that it will be a good thing to you that you can give at either set-up way a little more time with... | |
| emt 950, technics sp10 - direct drive sound Dear Lohan: From the point of view of quality performance on DD TTs IMHO I think that some models like the ones you name it are very good performers along other units out there. I can say that the Technics SP-10 ( either MK2 or 3 ), Denon DP-80/75... | |
| emt 950, technics sp10 - direct drive sound Dear Curio: As you point out the cartridge alignment was different for those two set-up ( big difference ) but not only that two different tonearms too and two same cartridges ( that believe me are a little different between them. ) and I can asum... | |
| Is there a maximum length for tonearm wiring? Dear George: +++++ " Would I lose part of the signal by increasing the wire length? " +++++in the same moment that the cartridge signal goes through a cable you start to lose/changing the original signal: adding and loosing information.If you don'... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Genesis: Normaly we can use the 4-5 position but it is important too to mate the MF-100 with the right headshell, well is almost impossible to find the right/perfect one but at least try with two-three different headshells and see which one w... | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear friends: I wonder why Daniel, I and some other people ( there are posts elsewhere on Dyna and SME owners where they state that hear differences. ) can hear differences and some of you did not.Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Daniel: Like I posted: different persons/systems different opinions.I made the same with the Micro Seiki ( with out damping ), FR, Ikeda, Dynavector, SME and Lustre tonearms and with several cartridges ( one cartridge at the time ) and I pref... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Siny123: In those times Astatic had a lower cartridge model than the MF-400: the IM10E, this cartridge does not used the moving flux principle than the MF series.Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Peter: Maybe the today SME dinamicaly balanced design already fix ( through damping ) that string vibration/self-resonance and this can be one of the reasons why some SME owners can't hear any differences even than the counterweight in the st... | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility I know, it is not transferable, that was not my means on the subject but that only a few people make what it's suppose the best to do: physics, mechanics and geometry.Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Genesis: Well, those cartridges are at the MF Astatic series " extremes " where the MF-100 is the top of the line and the MF-400 the lower model.Both cartridges " prefer " over 70K on load impedance and no more than 150pf of total capacitance... | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Peter: IMHO and due to my V and IV experiences the cartridge that you mount in the V performs better if the V is working in full static way where the " springs " are totally by-passed ( it does not make sense to " split ". ), in the static ba... | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility Dear Dertonarm: The understanding and know-how in almost any analog audio subject is a matter of in which level/point of any audio subject learning curve we each one are.In an open forum and due to different experiences at different level ( good o... |
