| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience Dear @holmz : Things are that's really weird that the rise time in a MM cartridge been faster than in a MC cartridge because it must be the other way around and maybe was the SUT who could had the culprit, at least everything point at the sut. ... | |
| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience Dear @holmz : Could be interesting to make some tests looking for the transient response rise time of a cartridge in an active high gain phono stage and other using SUT. Exist a very old measurements made it by an electret vintage cartridge d... | |
| TONEARM DAMPING : DAMPED OR NOT ? ? USELESS ? ? WELCOMED ? ? I forgot that's more important than what we could think that exist a good match between cartridge/tonearm in the way that can achieve a resonance frequency number inside the " ideal " resonance range : 8hz to 12hz or really near it. Many of us a... | |
| TONEARM DAMPING : DAMPED OR NOT ? ? USELESS ? ? WELCOMED ? ? Dear @mijostyn : That " free movement " that unfortunatelly the Townshend tonearm can’t achieve is the real key to stay nearer to the recording if and only if the tonearm in use is a good damped design. All what heppened in my room/system using ... | |
| TONEARM DAMPING : DAMPED OR NOT ? ? USELESS ? ? WELCOMED ? ? Technics knew very well and that's why used Boron blend in its tonearm arm wand and headshell along a resonance operation " Dynamic damping balance weigth " through the tonearm counterweigth but Technics did not use the silicon tray as SME severa... | |
| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience Dear @holmz : What Dover posted. You can read the link rigth from the Ortofon cartridge/SUT specs and then the measured sqare wave. R. | |
| TONEARM DAMPING : DAMPED OR NOT ? ? USELESS ? ? WELCOMED ? ? Dear @mijostyn : "" With proper tonearm matching damping is not needed and indeed is a negative. It is like adding friction to your bearing and forces the cartridge to work harder pulling the tonearm back and forth particularly on an eccentric re... | |
| What's your favorite $5-7000 turntable? Dear @dhcod : 1+ for the Rega RP-10 that even comes with a top tonearm performer. Look, in the M.Fremer review of the SAT XD-1 DD TT with a price tag of around 98K+ he commented this: "" The XD1 shares some sonic characteristics with Rega's ... | |
| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience In Georgia with Aolivero he owns the Proteus, Dallas with Albert Porter the 47 Labs, with the group in San Diego Lyra Skala and in the same area a gentleman with all Air Tigth electronics and with Air Tigth cartridge too. Other cartridge Allaerts ... | |
| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience Dear @dover : Yes, is totally stable. Now, till today 7-8 other owners never reported issues about and satisfied with their units. A " trouble " with the phonolinepreamp is that any load resistor change means to unsolder/solder the new one and t... | |
| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience Dear @holmz : In the good old times cartridge reviews where really great with all the information you can imagine. Here the LOMC Ortofon MC2000 ( that I owned ), page 83: https://worldradiohistory.com/Archive-All-Audio/Archive-Audio/80s/Audio-19... | |
| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience Dear @phoenixengr : " My point about the specified impedance along with the output voltage was to make the necessary gain calculations easier. " I was very clear and stated that my phonolinepreamp is an active high gain design and I can tell ve... | |
| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience Dear @dover : Yes I did it during the " thousands " of tests with the prototypes of the phonolinepreamp and through measures and listening tests the only parameter we can been aware was changes in SPL but not in FR but additional to that normally... | |
| Second tonearm / cartridge Dear @eddiechanghk : " preferably more bloom, sweet/ warmth vocals mostly for pop/ soft rock musics. " Live performance of female/male singers and with the kind of MUSIC you like just do not sounds as what you stated that is what you like. ... | |
| SUT - electrical theory and practical experience Dear @phoenixengr : If LOMC cartridges are almost no sensitive to load impedance then which your real point that I don’t understand for sure and which is your solution and advantages on the cartridge quality level performance? For some years ... |
