| Support table or shelf for turntable @noromance ha! Yeah, the wooden balls are a little misleading. I sanded divots in the platform to keep them in place and they have some Teflon tubing inserted into a hole in the top that goes into the bottom of my TT plinth to keep everything stat... | |
| Cable Survey To be clear, I put the cotton insulated silver inside the hyperflex. The hyperflex is mostly there to protect the signal from kinks and maintain even spacing of the neutral away from the signal. I used the hyperflex in place of the solid teflon or... | |
| Impedance Question? I think larger value caps are too large.. | |
| Impedance Question? Wait, the answer is a number (I've yet to calculate). Is that the gain or the frequency? How do you find the other? | |
| Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses? I was just thinking about this today.. this obsession that some have with quantitative data. Do I like measurements? Heck yeah! If we can quantify something, that’s great, let’s use that data if it’s useful. But if they’re is a large sample consis... | |
| Support table or shelf for turntable A spring suspended platform isn't cumbersome at all if made well. Check out my system page. I think my platform looks rather nice. Even on a shelf on a concrete wall, there are seismic and airborne vibrations. | |
| Support table or shelf for turntable The springs route isn’t all that complex, I’m more than happy to help where I can..Placing my turnable on a spring suspended butcher block platform reduced significantly any sounds caused by hitting my rack. I really have to hit it hard to get any... | |
| Impedance Question? @georgehifi oh man, sorry. I didn't mean to repeat myself. I've the schematics for my pre somewhere, I'll see if I can figure out what value the coupling cap is. What formulae are you using to calculate low frequency roll off? | |
| Vibration Issues / Turntable Decisions Plus, the slipping is not relevant to the skipping issue | |
| Impedance Question? That said, I have a Dared MC7P (there’s a dash in there somewhere..) and it played nicely with a Crown amp that had in input impedance of 10k and currently plays well with ICEpower monoblocks. The Dared apparently has a low input impedance.It’s al... | |
| Cable Survey @mmrkaic. No Masters in physics here, but I did study biochemistry and taught chemistry and physics. So I understand the skepticism. I was skeptical too, that's how I ended up doing DIY. Constantly seeing people talking about cables made me curiou... | |
| Support table or shelf for turntable No idea what your current table looks like, but just remember everything can pick up vibration, though the table and shelf you posted (particularly the table) don't seem to have many large surfaces to pick vibrations up, other than their 'work' su... | |
| CD/DVD player advice I’m loving my oppo. Especially now with tidal running as well. $600-$700 used | |
| Vibration Issues / Turntable Decisions @slaw I think you may find going for a walk may be a good idea. No need to get so mad! OP said he can’t use a TT shelf because of the chair rail molding, which is obvious in the pic. That means he’s still able to anchor the console to the wall beh... | |
| Cable Survey @mmrkaic (why do mentions not work with all members?)Unfortunately, I don't have the equipment to perform those measurements. If you do, I could make a new PC and send it to you to measure, since I need one anyway.Out of curiosity, why am I being ... |
