Is Direct Drive Really Better?
About stylus drag. I am unaware of anyone who has actually measured it and can certainly agree that it seems far fetched. However, we should not underestimate the audibility of timing errors. Digital jitter on the order of tens of picoseconds has ... 
Is Direct Drive Really Better?
Dan_ed, We have an early prototype now and hope to have a better version in time for the open house.Jejune, Not even close to the 1200. The Teres DD table will be flagship offering. It's both difficult and expensive to do DD right. 
Is Direct Drive Really Better?
Turntables drive systems is an interesting topic and one that I have been contemplating and experimenting with a great deal lately. I have concluded that speed stability is one of the most important factors in turntable sound quality. For that mat... 
New Battery for Teres?
The correct battery for a 255 is 12v, 7ah. The 12ah unit is for use in the battery supply used with the reference motor. The best source for a replacement is Rage Battery: http://www.ragebattery.comSelect a PowerSonic model PS-1270 with 0.187” fas... 
Basis Vector 3 vs. Schröder, Triplanar, Graham
I was there for the weekend that Cello mentioned and mostly agree with his ranking. According to my tastes I put the Vector just slightly ahead of the 2.2. But as I recall most of those listening preferred the Graham so I was in the minority. I al... 
Teres, Galibier and Redpoint
Doug,The new belt was just part of our on-going work quest for better sound. Some time ago we did extensive listening to many belt materials, We found that thicker belts sounded slightly better, but did find anything thicker than one mil. So we de... 
ZYX Universe, Dynavector XV-1s, vdH Colibri, ??
Gmorris, You missed the point, well actually both points. I didn't say, nor did I intend to imply, that the anti-skate setting did not affect the sound of the Graham. Here is what I was trying to say:1) It is highly unlikely that anti-skate was se... 
ZYX Universe, Dynavector XV-1s, vdH Colibri, ??
Sirspeedy, let me get this straight. You show up at Larry'sand find that the anti-skate is way off. From this you conclude that the 2.2 was not setup properly for the "7 man listening session". And further that the whole session was therefore bogu... 
Schroeder arms: order of merit?
The timing of my Phantom audition was purely coincidental. In fact it's kind of funny story. Myself and the owner of the Phantom had just finished fine tuning and listening to both the Schroder and the Phantom and took a break for lunch. His wife ... 
Schroeder arms: order of merit?
Gmorris: Of course the Reference/Phantom comparison was flawed. For this reason I was careful to not make any definitive statements about that comparison. I offered my opinions based on a less than ideal comparison, nothing more.For my comments ab... 
Schroeder arms: order of merit?
Just yesterday I had an opportunity to hear a Schroder Reference and the Graham Phantom on the same turntable (Teres 360). They were fitted with different cartridges (Lyra Olympus on the Schroder and a Koetsu Tiger eye platinum with a diamond cant... 
Teres vs VPI, SME, Origin Live, etc.
Raul, Your duplicity is actually a bit shocking. Lets contrast a few of your statements:1) "Yes, the Galiber and the Red Point beats Teres". So when may I ask did you evaluate these three turntables? What were the circumstances? Were the component... 
Turntable Upgrade Suggestions
"Kjl: The Acoustic Signature Final Tool with the Moerch Dp-6 tonearm is a stunning combination and beats the Teres and VPI Aries for less money."So Raul, what Teres are you referring to? "The Teres" is a meaningless statement. Have you actually he... 
Has anyone had experience with the Schroeder Arm
Ebm,Like Thom I find your statement of questionable value. Along with lacking in useful detail it also goes against the informed opinions of many others on this list. I have owned and spent considerable time with both the 2.2 and the Schroder Refe... 
Who will survive? One last table til I die.
Raul,Yes, I know that tubes are voltage devices. Bipolar transistors are current devices and mosfet transistors are voltage devices like tubes. Yes the theory of operation is different but the application is still very similar. You use a small cur...
