| Is extremely accurate "VTA" adjustment necessary? If only we could have a very rigid, entirely free playing tone arm with adjustable vta, azmuth, overhang, and tracking weight. | |
| TG Audio vs Pursang vs Poiema Interconnects I, of course, agree. Nevertheless, I do not know what anyone can conclude from such threads. Why do people type rather than listen? | |
| TG Audio vs Pursang vs Poiema Interconnects I'm with Mprime, but I would add how predictably all of these threads dealing with comparisons of cables fail to ever reach a concensus. I doubt if any first poster on such threads can make sense out of the advice he receives other than to say, we... | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? Hey, everybody with Denon 2900s, unless you have used the D.P. Memory button while hooked up to a tv to turn off the digital and video outputs, you have not heard its potential. With the Exemplar mods, the improvement is breathtaking of about the ... | |
| Is extremely accurate "VTA" adjustment necessary? Certainly, 180 and 200 gram records are unusually thick, but there are not great differences among other records. Finding the right vta thus is not entirely dependent on which record you are playing. Some time ago when I had a Wheaton arm with cal... | |
| Is extremely accurate "VTA" adjustment necessary? Viridian, I agree entirely. No one who has ever heard the magic of the right VTA would ever understate its impact. | |
| Has anyone had experience with the Schroeder Arm Frank, I am using your Reference Arm on a Garrard 501 with a Decca Jubilee cartridge. In carefully adjusting everything yesterday, I once again found how critical the dampening is at least with this cartridge. If I put too little dampening on the ... | |
| Hi-end CD 5-disk Changers? Mid-fi only. | |
| Is extremely accurate "VTA" adjustment necessary? I have a recent experience that causes me to reopen this thread. I got a new Shindo Labs mat to replace my cork mat on the Garrard 501. Although these mats are both 3 mm. thick. The mat makes an incredible change in sound. As one of these changes ... | |
| Denver TT Shootout? Dmailer, I don't have experience with the Reference on anything other than the Garrard 501, but I expect you will be very happy. | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? I am thinking of a Porsche Boxster S. Anyone know of what is a must and what to avoid? Also has anyone used Ebaymotors? Thanks. | |
| Denver TT Shootout? I heard the comparison of the Teres weighted acrylic and weighted wood platters at the last CES. Everyone demanded that he put back the wood platter. It was not just lushness or full sound; the lead weighted wood was more dynamic, had a wider soun... | |
| Has anyone had experience with the Schroeder Arm Before taking Raul seriously see this http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?eanlg&1097129745&openflup&56&4#56I think he is right. | |
| Is extremely accurate "VTA" adjustment necessary? Jyprez, yours is a good starting point. Try very slightly lowering the arm in the back and take a listen. Continue lowering very slightly until it gets worse rather than better. If your sound is disproportionately coming from one channel, you may ... | |
| Is Exemplar the answer? No, I never had the Sistrum, but I did try various points. |
