EMT 927 vs. Micro Seiki 5000 or 8000 - different?
If you ever had a chance to look into the motor design of a big Studer Tape machine or at the big EMTs you know what motor design could be at its best. This is how professionals do it. Maybe we are used to deal a little to much with the consumer a...

Syntax, you need to hear a well redefined 927 or R80 with an old Ortofon arm. As I do know your musical preferences you will change your opinion I am pretty sure.

Bourse, I am inspired for my Horn design not by the guys your are mentioning. Especially the crossover will be something very very special. I have tested the TAD drivers against others, we do some small modifications too. I will use two additional...

I am sorry, yes I meant the 8000. The sea breeze must have some impact on my registers... Indeed the 8000 is the only SAEC which comes as a straight 13" design with the angle provided by the special headshell. I have two headshells of this kind an... 
Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment
Dear Raul,as I am very keen with the Automotive industry I know that a lot of money is made in the After Sales Market. So why not in the Audio Industry? You are right usually you need to have some good tiers on your car when you pick it up at your... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Suteetat, I do recommend the original Audio Note - Kondo, Japan. I have no experience with Audio Note UK. Audio Note UK used to be the importer of Kondo in the 90 ies and as Kondo did not secure the name rights for other countries than Japan Audio... 
Schröder Tonearm
Lewm, I was there but missed the audition. No, not really like the Schroeder arms but it is more about the church behavior you just mentioned. The same happens now with the Schick arms, you need to wait for them far too long even if they are not o...

T-Bone, Je suis d'accord pour tout! With my Continuum arms I did the rewiring by myself. But this is somehow easy. With my SAECs (506/30 and 1000), EA-10 and the MS 282 Dertonarm supported me. He is a real expert on doing this. We are using Ikeda ...

Hi Geoch, how do you like your SAEC arm? I am an aficinado of the SAEC arms. I changed the inner wirings into silver litz leading the wire directly to the SUT - what a great sound these arms are able to transport! 
Best Tonarm combination for a Takeda Miyabi ?
Breezer, try the Miyabi in a FR-66s - a wonderful and pretty good working combination. 
EMT 927 vs. Micro Seiki 5000 or 8000 - different?
Hi Geoch, I see you have quite an experience with TTs and idlers as well. You are completely right when you are indicating listening to fine music is possible without owning special top notch gear. If you are carefully selecting and maybe modifyin...

i forgot to answer Blue_Nose on the horn question. No, not from Cessario. I am building my own 4 way Horn system including two additional & exceptional Subs. Two guys are supporting me, a very well known German technology advisor in High-End A... 
How is LAMM LP2 compares to the more recent phono
Suteetat, I am using the best Jensen SUTs in my Lamm. You see it on my page. They a are also bigger than the usually supplied SUTs. If i may suggest a reasonable modification for "your next LP2" I rather would go for other tubes and an external gr...

Blue_Nose, thanks for your input as well as from Ipp, Vinyljh and Jonathan.some of my gear may look expensive but somehow I was able to pick it up for very modest prices, even the Continuum Criterion ( its not a Caliburn, I would not have gone for...
