| Wrapping power cords and interconnects with copper foil. @carlsbad2 no didn’t ground it, just wrapped it with self adhesive foil. Seems to work wonders. | |
| Honest question about cartridge vs. turntable performance. Thank you everyone for all your responses. My budget is limited to no more than 2k for the upgrade therefore I posed the question. I was wondering if I could just upgrade the cartridge and phone-preamp for best “bang for the buck” upgrade. I guess... | |
| Fell asleep while TT was running with ortodoncia black cartridge! Ok great... thanks for your response. Feeling relieved. Just bought the cartridge fairly recently too, so was feeling extra guilty. | |
| Has anyone finally decided to sell their Turntable and Vinyl collection? Succinctly put prof. +4 | |
| Is it possible to have vinyl nearly noise free? All things being equal..will a Shibata stylus besides providing better detail give more tics and pops compared to say a line contact? Any thoughts from all the shibata owners? | |
| Does removing anti-skating really improve sound? @larryi would using something like gruv glide mitigate the issue of the pull towards the spindle due to lower friction? I’ve been using it without anti-skate to get the best possible sound. I’ve done a-b tests of same tracks with definitive enhanc... | |
| Does removing anti-skating really improve sound? My final question to all the analog gurus...does an S tonearm require less or no antiskating? Is it an inherently better design? | |
| Does removing anti-skating really improve sound? Thank you millercarbon for the detailed explanation. Does anti skating affect loudness of a channel also? I believe after removing the weight my right channel sounds equal to the left whereas before it was slightly louder. | |
| Does removing anti-skating really improve sound? I have a mmf 2.2 turntable..so nothing very fancy. It has the stock tonearm. So don’t know if that’s why I’m getting better sound without the skating. | |
| My sacrilegeous question to audiophiles out there regarding parametric equalizer. @orpheus10 .. so does using an equalizer automatically make some not an audiophile? At the end isn’t it all about enjoyment? | |
| Want to upgrade my cartridge from 2m blue to black @chrisoshea.. I finally took your advice and took the plunge and ordered a bronze stylus for my blue cartridge. As you and others here have posted it should fit my cartridge so hopefully it works out ok. I’m excited to hear the improvements over... | |
| Want to upgrade my cartridge from 2m blue to black I’m reading great back and forth between all the analog audiophiles on this forum so let me restate my question in a different way and please give me a honest and straightforward answer...If I install the 2m black cartridge (with black body) on my... | |
| Want to upgrade my cartridge from 2m blue to black Thanks everyone for all your suggestions. My maximum budget is approx $700 so I thought this would be a worthwhile upgrade to my analog play back. I understand the limitations of the turntable and I am told the black is very critical in picking up... |
