| Will SME-V, etc benefit with non-stock alignment? Dear friends: I miss the point, Dertonarm posted that already exist ( through the IEC ) that standard so what we have to do is try that the cartridge builders follow it, with no exception: right?Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| Will SME-V, etc benefit with non-stock alignment? Dear Axel: You always can drill slots to the tonearm base.It is already stated that the V is a non universal alignment cartridge where there is no orthodox alignment answer.This SME subject IMHO give us a good lesson: " the necessity of oficial st... | |
| Choice of Koetsu cartridges? Dear David: I can't say better than Rudolff.Due to what you own right now IMHO I think it is time to the XV-1sRegards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| The correct internal-inductance of Windfeld cart.? Dear Axel and Dave: This dialogue was/is a learning one for me and I'm sure that for other people too, thank you to share your knowledge about.What I confirm through it is that the SUT option in a non perfect world ( like the audio one. ) has seve... | |
| Headphones for setting VTA? Dear Emaillist: Ar first " eyesight "/a-priori its " sounds " like a very good alternative and worth to explore on it and not only on the VTA subject but in almost other audio setting items.I own four different headphones ( from Stax to Grado. ) t... | |
| Geometry for pivot tonearms - calculation errors?? Dear Axel: I mounted my 97Xe ( a small brother of the V15 ) in the IV and works fine so I don't see any trouble with your combination.I don't like to speak about devices that already own a person but I can't stay " quiet " . This next thoughts/exp... | |
| Phono stage hiss from BOTH SS and Tube Normal? Dear Rick: Somewhere the cartridge/cables are " taking " that hiss and even the own cartridge could generate if is out of builder specs ( a faulty one ).It is very difficult to fix a hiss ( is more easy a " hum ", that is difficult too. ) because ... | |
| Geometry for pivot tonearms - calculation errors?? Dear Axel: My experience on cartridges are that: experiences on cartridges, MC or MM. I don't now why I give the impresion that I'm or have a MM bias, I'm not.I have several MC experiences with vintage and today cartridges ( I own and owned ) and ... | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility Dear friends: IMHO we have to see/take ( everyone ans specially the tonearm builders. ) the tonearm like a " tool " a very precise tool that ( between other important subjects ) can/must give the opportunity to have a near perfect cartridge ( like... | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility Dear Axel: Yes, I agree we have to accept the real world situation specially when things are out of our control or best effort.What I mean ( sometimes I can't explain me in the precise way ) is that if we want to improve the quality perfomance of ... | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility Dear Axel: Certainly the analog imperfect world " permit " that the people take decisions that are more oriented in " feelings " than in scientific care like the tonearm/cartridge set-up. Even those 0.1mm affect/provoke changes/distortions that ar... | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility I'm wrong, what we are doing is an additional arm wand of 2cm over 12", that's all.Raul. | |
| The correct internal-inductance of Windfeld cart.? Dear Lew: That specific reviewer IMHO is a " shame " for the audio environment.Unfortunately he ( like other " pro " reviewers. ) has the " power " of a free-pen with out anyone to " stop ", sending/making wrong/corrupted audio information given t... | |
| Geometry for pivot tonearms - calculation errors?? Dear Dertonarm: Could you share your " finds " /thoughts n that 1st geometry for we can understand and try to help about?, because both have an intimate relationship.Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| Tracking error distortion audibility Dear friends: I'm sure that many of us some way or the other are understanding in a best way the whole tonearm subjects on geometry/set-up.One additional point that I want to address is one in reference on what Axel posted:+++++ " There seems to b... |
