| Direct drive vs belt vs rim vs idler arm You cannot beat a well designed and implemented idler drive. Maybe some people should listen to an EMT 927 before writing about idler drive. Yes this is the drama with amateurs :-) | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Halcro and Timetel,thanks for the hints and very good background information on the Shures. I am now back at home waiting for my Shures being delivered (V15VxMR, V15III-HE, V15VMR etc.), including some NOS replacement styli, also the VNVxMR).... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Balkan Comrade Nandric,I am glad hearing that I am not alone in my moderated life. Maybe you have seen the movie "Live of Others" which I was reminded of when learning that your microphone was detected. Did you have a life in the former GDR a... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi John,I wasn't set free like Nandric or Halcro or Raul experienced? So I share your feelings. How long will it last? I am right now in a communistic country which allows me to post on Audiogon (because it is moderated?) but blocks me from my own... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,accept your standpoint, nevertheless diasagree with your assessment of the WE 8000. When it comes to systems limitations we both can only assume from the distance. So this is a rather vague field to balance on. I stopped improving by reb... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Pryso,no one is saying that Raul is a fool although I think he may have stopped near the gates to Rome like Hannibal did with his elephants. Yes it is difficult judging systems from the distance. I will never do this. But it should be allowed disc... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,the SAEC WE 8000 tonearm was built in small units only. Therefore it is a very very very rare arm today. You don't find it very often outside the Japanese market. You are lucky to own such a jewel. It seems to me you did not find out wha... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Nandric,oh i have many Acchilles heels if you are looking for that. I only give advices on stuff I know about and have tested by myself. Regarding MM you are right I will never reach out to Timetel, Raul, Halcro or you. But we need to have he... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Nandric,you mean Hitachi? I have no information about the relation of these two companies, maybe someone else can help? but there was and is always a magic cooperation circle between Japanese, German, Swiss and American cart makers. It seems ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Henry,you know I went through all shops in Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka and did not find the WE 8000 and then I waited 5 years?, not really but when I got it I learned on Audiogon threads that this arm is not very exiting... what a different... | |
| Micro Seiki, or TW AC-1 Looks really good Lotus340r. Next step could be a second motor for the TW table. You will hear it! | |
| What turntable, $500 or less If you are serious - No unit!go into the 1000 region. you will enjoy it! | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Nandric,it is indeed the best way leaving this planet. this is why I am so cautious about "your product" rather than going for my "Mekong Whiskey" or "Banana Schnaps". But beware I am not selling these products, only tasting a little or maybe... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Nikola,you may consider stopping your advertisements for Slivowitz, otherwise you get moderated. I wonder why this thread is being moderated or are all threads under visit. Did anyone of you ask for moderation? Raul, I hope you are not guilty... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi John,the moderator sent me an email and asked a question. I could understand from his point of view as he was thinking I am advertising a web-site. But I think we do this very often when we refer to interesting products or sites. I am not on th... |
