| More on the Onzow Zerodust On a a lark, googled 'is dust magnetic' , appears there's some studies that show it can be: My previous residence was at the top of a hill close to an I95 beltway, the constant tire grinding up the road debris made this weird fine dust settle on m... | |
| More on the Onzow Zerodust I only have a 40X jewelers loupe to examine my cartridge. When this Onzow issue first was reported, I noticed similar looking 'dots' of whiteish grey spots on the cantilever and cartridge body magnets, while gently trying to scrape them off, I not... | |
| More on the Onzow Zerodust I'm very interested in the composition of these stylus deposits, I have used Onzow and noticed similar deposits when viewing stylus with magnification. The magnetic field is rather strong from a moving coil cartridge body and speculate this field... | |
| Best Bang for the Buck Upgrade It's a 'system' so changing one thing is just a part of the bang... Improving your power to the system ( I use and recomend Puritan Audio PSM136 or PSM156) will upgrade your source and amplification in one swell foop. I have dedicated lines and... | |
| Puritan PSM 156 Just got my PSM136 and no owners manual, just a plastic bag of ground master ads, testimonials and what not. There is a 5 year guarantee certificate enclosed, you write in the purchase date and dealer details, the serial number already filled in. | |
| RIP oregonpapa Very saddened to hear this, wishing his family strength at this difficult time. From The Art9 cartridge, PPT products and purple fuses, found Franks listening impressions to be good solid recomends and I was rewarded with great sound by trusting ... | |
| Interesting information from Analog Planet on Stylus Cleaner Onzow Zero Dust. @mulveling .. +1 on this: "Whatever cleaning regimen you choose, full stylus & cantilever brushing should be a part of it." Sometime over the last week my vinyl lost some of the magic. As part of this Onzow gunk thread, I've been scrutinizin... | |
| Onzow ZeroDust reportedly leaves a residue Using my Carson 8X magnifier (from office max) and LED flashlight I was able so see a similar debris buildup on my cantilever. At this level of magnify I can't see the stylus very well. I eagerly await WallyTools lab analysis of what this stuff ... | |
| Onzow ZeroDust reportedly leaves a residue I clean my Onxbow with a brush after every few cartridge smushes. Wonder if those close ups are re-deposited Lp detritus from a stockpile of stylus cleanings? | |
| Hegel Mohican & Bryston BCD3 @jafant -- I purchased a factory reconditioned but new Mohician (had been returned for some reason) for $3,700 my thinking was my 20+ YO Musical Fidelity A5 player wouldn't outlive me so wanted to get something that would outlast me while you can ... | |
| Hegel Mohican & Bryston BCD3 @jafant .. really like everything but Opera, hard core country and rap.Heavy into Progressive Rock, 70's classic rock, Jazz and Jazz fusion, and some folk like Fairport Convention, Pentangle etc. Only listen to classical on my Bose Wave radio, rar... | |
| One big reason why brick and mortar high end audio dealers struggle. Over the last 15 years been in 3 audio shops.The first one I went into to buy a power conditioner, and while there asked about a used CD player they had for sale. The salesman asked me about my current player (musical fidelity A5) then proclaimed ... | |
| Hegel Mohican & Bryston BCD3 recently bought a Mohican, and looking forward to comparing it to my VPI prime with Audio Technica Art9 cartridge.Initial impressions are really good but awaiting a pre-amp repair to fully compare the two. | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? King Crimson 9/7/2021 Mann Music Center Philadelphia Pa.3rd time seeing this 3 drummer lineup and probably the best of those shows, the setlist emphasized their heavyier songs (Red, Starless, Cirkus, Epitath, Court of the Crimson King, 20th Centur... | |
| My Experience With Tekton @ missioncoonery .. not shilling, I've never heard any Tektons, was just pointing out that Stereophile's Herb Reichert and Jonathan Atkinson apparently hear Tekton differently than you.Who's credibility should one take, theirs or yours? I noticed... |
