| Does size really matter? :- Hmm,It's late at night, and I can't verify that I read every word of every post above, so apologies if I missed someone else pointing this out, but the dimensions of the stylus is nearly irrelevant. Only the tip of the stylus enters the groove. Se... | |
| Arm lift options beside Stylift Ronnie, Looks to me like it works well. Cool posting of the video too.Thanx,R | |
| Arm lift options beside Stylift Aha,I see. The TonaL uses a magnet, which is brought into close proximity to another magnet on the tonearm when the tonearm contacts the bent wire that causes the lifting devices pivot arm with the magnet on the end to lower towards the tonearms c... | |
| Arm lift options beside Stylift Ronnie, it looks interesting, I'll admit. I don't actually see from the picture how it would work though. I also don't understand the price. P4,250? What does that mean?If you can explain all this, I might buy one. :-)I'll also mention, re: the St... | |
| Arm lift options beside Stylift Okay,I just picked up an Audio Technica Safety Raiser, as well as the Thorens. It seems, that's about it to end this thread.The Thorens fits on my Oracle just perfectly. Amazing the prices these things fetch. Also amazing I gave my previous Thoren... | |
| Arm lift options beside Stylift Actually, you could adjust the Thorens for a soft lift, something that's not possible with the stylift.If you actually still have your Thorens, look at the spring adjustments. Also, place the lifting lever close to the bottom of the arm height.Tha... | |

| Gallo Reference 3 stand bracket question Matthew,If you try the BDR cones, you'll need to get the adapters from BDR too. The thread size of the BDR cones is different from the thread size of the Gallo cones. I don't remember the difference in sizing off hand, but BDR sells a short adapte... | |
| Warped Records Interesting thread. I too have had slight warps in some recent purchases. I use the Oracle clamp and spindle washer, and, mostly, am able to get rid of the warps, or diminish them, so I can ignore them. Maybe we shouldn't be ignoring any defective... | |
| Gallo Reference 3 stand bracket question Matthew,See my system page. Click on the word sytem next to my name.Thanks,Dave | |
| Gallo Reference 3 stand bracket question Matthew,I used the 4's, but think the 3's would work equally well, depending on whether you wanted more warmth, or detail out of your speakers. Dave | |
| Vandersteen Quattro review in Stereophile As stated above, cabinetry adds most sygnificantly to the cost. This is one reason Vandersteens ahave always been such a huge bargain in terms of "sound" for dollar value. YOu pay for the sound, not the cabinet. Take a look at the cost difference ... | |
| Gallo REfF3's-All their cracked up to be? Dave,What did you use for the sides of the stands to mount the speaker spikes into? Do you have a part number for the feet too? I didn't see the rounded point models at Parts Express, though I was blown away by their real world prices. How refresh... |
