| Soundsmith - Thank you to everyone. Maybe some people have not looked hard at my last name. Ledermann. My parents were holocaust survivors. My family tree goes back in Germany to the 1500's on both sides. And there were some very fascinating and innovating members; in law, governmen... | |
| Soundsmith - Thank you to everyone. My love does not set me free But holds me down upon my kneesUpon the dirt, amongst the shoots Hidden here within the trees To weep so deep inside of war To cry so loud outside of love Till I become a river flow Which into all other rivers ... | |
| Gonna have to ditch the Soundsmith Carmen II Dear Carmen MKII Owner; I do not have you phone number, and did not get a recent message that you called. When we initially spoke, I spent quite a bit of time going over the alignment procedure with you. There are alignment videos on my website, s... | |
| Soundsmith Straingauge cartridge taken to the next level Dear Spirit of music; Please don’t misunderstand what I have written - in over 45 yeas of designing and manufacturing audio, I NEVER tell anyone what they can, or cannot hear. I am speaking strictly from a TECHNICAL standpoint. I am NOT disputing ... | |
| Soundsmith Straingauge cartridge taken to the next level Please bear in mind that the Power supplies we ship are all ANALOG, not SWITCHING supplies, because switching supplies are very noisy. Often, when we ship overseas folks replace our analog DC supplies with switching supplies.The analog supplies we... | |

The tone arm may also be having bearing issues (see if it has any play). Sometimes the uni-pivot b... | |
| Soundsmith Aida vs Hana sh The end of life of a cartridge is always wear out, or an accident. Since MC's cannot always be rebuilt, how much is it to rebuild these other cartridges, compared to the multiple rebuild potential of the Aida? Something else to factor in, unless $... | |
| Turntable sibilance I would be glad to respond regarding the Sibilance; There are MANY things that can contribute to causing such; two of the glaring issues that come out of your post (immediately) are the wear (1000 hours is MAXIMUM) and lack of proper Anti-skating.... | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith Dear Inna; I am sorry if I offended you - since someone before my response posted knowledge about some personal challenges, especially as it related to the thread, I did not feel out of line posting some short details. Maybe you didn't like my poe... | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith Dear Tom - TOO many years...I don't do many shows anymore.....but hope our paths cross soon. ~ peter | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith I appreciate folks coming to my defense; we are still in business because of you. The reality is that I have 15 employees to manage that I have personally trained in manufacturing, in classic service and classic audio sales, administration, shippi... | |
| Questionable service at Soundsmith Thank you for that post - I would very much like to have your RA# to see what happened. It is NOT typical or usual. Soundsmith (unlike ALL other cartridge companies) values its customers and rebuilds all our own designs for 20% or LESS. Our design... | |
