| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Actually,right out of the box,I felt the "V" was considerably better,than the "Temper-Suprems"!I have never been a big fan of any cartridge requiring more than about fifty hrs of break-in. Best! | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Nsgarsh,basically,after doing technical stuff(guage reading of downforce,and all other measured parameters),we ALWAYS use a "set" series of LP's,to make final adjustments(everywhere)by ear. I like to have a good idea where the cartridge "sets up",... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Nsgarsh,the electrician will be DONE,before I leave.I do want to get to my pal as early as possible. The pre/phono is a fully maxxed out,and totally rebuilt(by Great Northern Sound)Audio Research SP-15.All new Black Gate caps/Siemens CCa's in phon... | |
| Lenco 75 versus Garrard 301? Rick,I knew,before getting to the question,that this was your post.You must be getting close to a decision.....Simple!Take either one,fully maxxed out,and with a solid,massive plinth.Put a Schroeder Ref on it,and you can say goodbye to posting,for... | |
| Silicone for Tri-Planer damping trough And persevere I HAVE!!!Regardless of my past comments(of course I still love my 2.2),I cannot stand this business of damping anymore!!Now that I am one week away from being set-up again,whew,I hope to NOT get too nuts with this again. Actually,a f... | |
| mission 775s w/774 arm...a forgotten jewel? I owned the arm,mounted on a Linn,way back when.I was very happy with performance.A nice product.BTW,the Mission cartridge,of that era was NOT up to the performance quality of the arm! Best! | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Nsgarsh,and anyone interested...Well my pal has just ordered the Orpheus.I will be installing it for him,in about two weeks. I will NOT be able to do an A/B comparison,with the Temper-v,as you MUST send back the "V" as part of the trade in price.H... | |
| Transparent Phono Cable "Don't sound great until they get several hundred hours on them"........ This is my rational,as to why I simply cannot believe the average(even fairly obsessed)hobbyist is simply NOT going to bother checking out more than one or two cables.Yes,we ... | |
| Transparent Phono Cable Nsgarsh,just for the record,I and any of my fellow hobbyist pals have never "automatically" chosen any product.Be it cabling or any other.That would be "diluting" the possible potential of a given product.If I gave the impression that the IC-70 wa... | |
| Transparent Phono Cable Nsgarsh,for the first time,since I have began reading,your usually well thought out posts,you make a "silly" case,against my logic! Firstly the IC-70 is a "seperate" 750 dollar cable.It happens to be a fine match,for "any" Graham arm as the intern... | |
| Transparent Phono Cable If I was getting the Phantom,I would surely get the cable manufactured by Graham.The IC-70 is a superb design,and mates very well with the arm.I own it,along with the Graham 2.2. I don't know what it "runs circles around",but I have compared it to... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Sheeesh!I never meant to imply exclusive lp listening sessions of piccolos."GADZOOKS!!Da ya think I sit with all my Piccolo discs at hand( I don't even know how many I have),going through the haze of "rooty toot,toots"? Also,NOT solo piccolos,but ... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Doug,I was quite aware that-- "that" particular set-up was under construction.Yet,sometimes it is clear that,once the bugs are going to come out,there is going to be something special,down the road.That was my real take on "that" set-up!Yes.I am a... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description SORBOTHANE PANDA PAWS!!Only in this hobby-:) I DO love it!! You know,I am not making any attempts to be a contrarian,or doubter,but I simply must take the "on paper" superiority of ANY product with a good grain of salt. Clearly,I like the Temper-... | |
| Tranfiguration Orpheus description Jtimothea...so true!"The heart of piccolodeum",ILOVE that!! Actually as to all this piccolo business,I'm not talking about recognizing the instrument,as such.It is clear,on a good set-up,as to "it" being a piccolo,What I have never heard,is the co... |
