| A Thought Exercise: Consolidating Analog To One Table and Two Cartridges Primary Control Kinea. End game. I will be bringing one in later this year to demo.... STST meanwhile a stone cold bargain. But these are new not used per se. | |
| MC for Low Mass Tonearm OP question is, I believe, in response to JCarr’s comment on his other thread. How many cart designers will steer you away from their product ;) ? AnaMighty / Sculpture A may have something tasty, in the budget range, worth an ask. I have two ca... | |
| Lyra and OMA @michaellent I know you want to know why. Its a big topic. Lets just say that in this case many decades of experience are speaking :) ... | |
| Second MC Cartridge Choice.....Tokyo Etsuro are available. Just helped dial in a Bordeaux last week. | |
| Lyra and OMA Tonearm has a lot to do do with how much you get out of your cart... | |
| Lyra and OMA There are calculators and there is experience. Maybe JCarr knows a little ;) | |
| Lyra and OMA According to OMA website it is 1:10. From a gain perspective probably OK with Kleos 0.5mV, although would be curious about the Aric 6sn7 gain. Might the Kleos sound better in this system with lower ( numerically ) load? Maybe. Could require some ... | |
| Second MC Cartridge Choice.....Tokyo Phasemation perhaps | |
| Lyra and OMA Care to elaborate on arm and phono? Might get more details that way | |
| Kumza Stabi S or Rega P10 ?? J.R Boisclair at Wally Tools offers it. You send in your cart and they determine deviations for sra/zenith/azimuth for your cart and make a shim with corrective angles that mounts between cart and arm. For many full adjustable arms this might... | |
| Kumza Stabi S or Rega P10 ?? One point I agree with @mijostyn in that I wouldn’t even think of using a Rega with a high end MC without the wally analysis and resulting shim set. Anyone who has setup a cart and dialed in by ear knows that the extremely rough ’ shim under a... | |
| Kumza Stabi S or Rega P10 ?? If ~ $6k tables aren't too far out of line may I also throw the STST Motus DQ as another to investigate? Since I have an interest will just leave it at that :) | |
| Pioneer PL630- upgrading the phono cable? @cleeds many MM want some cap while MC don't. So my experience is somewhat reversed. @musicearlyadopter so your cart is a high output and not electrically similar to the Umami you reference? If so the reference was a distraction from the topic at... | |
| Shipping a turntable with plinth from England to USA 75lbs for one parcel puts you in special territory. Ime UPS will thrash it. Hard. Like better be in a plywood crate. DHL might be better. Or not. If he can pack for a war then OK. If not split into three | |
| Pioneer PL630- upgrading the phono cable? an upgraded Audio Quest 404B (essentially a Hana Umami Red) Moving Coil cartridge. What does this mean? Is it lower output / impedance now? |
