| Technics SL1200: standard overhang gauge or MintLP You can read the manuals on vinylengine database. Cheers,Spencer | |
| How much gain is needed in a Phono Preamp for a 0.2 to 0.3mv low output moving coil? Lots of good suggestions in the last day or two here. I agree with the brief comment that a solid state phono stage will give you a lot higher chance of quick success. It hasn't been discussed much in this thread(but plenty elsewhere!) that low le... | |
| Soekris ApS dac1101 another discrete R2R Multibit dac. Great, keep the comments coming, @4hannons Cheers,Spencer | |
| Looking for speaker ideas. Are you really planning on changing preamp and speakers at the same time? That is a road to confusion.If the preamp is sold, but you still have speakers, suggest making the preamp purchase first so you can get a handle on that in your system befor... | |
| CD Players as transports for Schiit Gungnir Multibit @robdive1, You are asking a question that requires a detailed response. I would first suggest reading Chris Connaker's 2 part review of the Sonore microRendu on CA site. If you like videos hans beekhuyzen's youtube channel has good reviews of the ... | |
| Technics SL1200: standard overhang gauge or MintLP @erikt It's confusing, but you are not confused! You answered your own question. With my SP10mk2/EPA250 arm, which share 235mm pivot-to-spindle with the 1200, the OEM headshell doesn't have long enough slots with some carts when you try to align w... | |
| Best standalone music server? @uberwaltz,With ethernet already wired into your room and already having an existing network, you are well on the way to a network based player solution. It's no big deal to connect a NAS(network attached storage) drive to your router. It's no big... | |
| How much gain is needed in a Phono Preamp for a 0.2 to 0.3mv low output moving coil? Lots of good comments, many of them cautiously worded...I hope your takeaway is that you could do better.I have recently troubleshooted a friend's Chinook/Prime setup and before we got things sorted out had to get replacement tubes for the Manley ... | |
| Technics SP-10MK3 Turntable and JP Jones Replacement Chip for MN6042 Well done, JP! That is awesome work on your part. Cheers,Spencer | |
| 25 or 6 to 4 by Chicago. What does it mean? The Rhino vinyl reissue of Chicago Transit Authority which includes "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" is a real winner! Thanks for sharing that factoid. Cheers,Spencer | |
| Where do I set loading on my Manley Chinook? Read the manual CLOSELY. They suggest subtracting cable capacitance, calculated base on cable length from the recommended cartridge loading and setting the R dip switches accordingly. Not the clearest manual ever written! Cheers,Spencer | |
| Best standalone music server? Integrated ripping in the same box is a foolish requirement. Rip from any desktop or laptop using XLD(mac) or ExactAudioCopy(windows) to a network attached storage drive(aka NAS). I would argue that if you have a computer at all with a disk drive,... | |
| CD Players as transports for Schiit Gungnir Multibit Replace the CD player with a NAS drive and a network player. I use the Sonore microRendu with my Schiit Gungnir Multibit and a number of others have bought them after hearing them here. Cheers,Spencer | |
| Technics SL1200: standard overhang gauge or MintLP It seems that @rotarius is focused only on the overhang aspect of cartridge setup, and not on adjustment of the offset angle. If one only was mounting perfect carts with perfectly straight cantilevers this wouldn't be a problem, but in this world ... | |
| Lumin A-1 or Lumin U1 FYI, Esoteric's app to control the player is made for them by Lumin, and works 99% like the Lumin app, so that difference won't come into play with your decision. Cheers,Spencer |
