| What does a tonearm contribute to the sound of a turntable? @fsonicsmith Cool. Thanks for the clarification. Another thing I've often wondered is how good the tiny wires connecting the cartridge to the tonearm are. With all the fuss and expense about IC's and speaker cables, are these overlooked? | |
| What does a tonearm contribute to the sound of a turntable? @fsonicsmith Wait - I'm curious. What well-worn, rutted road? | |
| About to audition Vienna Acoustics Beethoven Grand Reference - advice? Yes. Listen and enjoy. They're wonderful speakers | |
| What does a tonearm contribute to the sound of a turntable? With the new Jelco, I now have not one, not two, but six signal interfaces between the cartridge and the speakers:cartridge to headshell/armheadshell/arm to Premiere Interface DIN (little box on the back of the VPI - which I desperately want to ge... | |
| Silverline or Sonus Faber I use the Mk3 model of the Pathos with my 4 ohm Spatial Mk3 Turbo S's. The Pathos handles 4 ohms no problem. | |
| What does a tonearm contribute to the sound of a turntable? @hdm Thanks for the feedback. I have indeed damped the tonearm according to its specs, starting with two drops in the well so it's just under halfway. | |

| What does a tonearm contribute to the sound of a turntable? @tomic601 Yes, the FT-3 was a great tonearm. I just wanted something different. PM me if you'd like to make an offer and I can give you details and pictures. | |

You perfectly illustrated how a certain segment of the listening population just isn't deep enough to appreciate vinyl. W... | |
| Your memory of Audio Marketing, esp. B.S. What was the company who recently advertised in stereophile about having a 1-horsepower amplifier? Seriously. What the hay? I'm listening to music, not being dragged towards the sonic horizon. | |
| Pass X150.5 or Odyssey Stratos monos? Question: what's your preamp? What're your speakers? | |
| What does a tonearm contribute to the sound of a turntable? I have a version of damping tape on the drivers in my Spatials. Their previous owner put it on and said it really helped control the sound. I took his word for it. A few more things:I'm going to re-drill my armboard; I'm off by 3.5mm on my Feicker... | |
| What does a tonearm contribute to the sound of a turntable? Thanks, Chuck. I'm digesting all the information at the moment. I replaced my ancient sumiko ft3 with a jelco 750 eb. One of the things I noticed after installing and calibrating was that I had to use a bit more volume with the jelco to get to the... |
