| MC phono stage without transformer? Tpsonic, I currently have a MM phono stage (tube) with 50dB gain. I am using a cart with 2.6mV output. But I want to experiment with Low Output MC (like a Lyra Skala). | |
| Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions Tim, I have a VPI table so if measuring the spindle to pivot distance is all I need to do with the Feickert then it's definitely not worth the $250 price-tag. Because I can measure it with ordinary ruler and it's exactly the same as measuring it w... | |
| setting azimuth on VPI turntables Sns, of course, I tried turning the other direction and the voltage increases instead of decreases. | |
| Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions I noticed something today about the Feickert template. I measured the spindle-pivot distance on my Aries-3 TT and it's 261mm. I then move my stylus to touch the 261mm mark on the Feickert template - so far so good. Then I thought let's try another... | |
| setting azimuth on VPI turntables Hmm...I tried the DMM method for the first time. I bought the $40.00 Analogue Productions Test LP. I first played the stereo mode 1kHz tone and turned my volume up so that the output voltage from my amp reads about 4V on both side.Then I played th... | |
| tt surface noise reduce or tolerate? Being relatively new to vinyl, I am now convinced that LP cannot be as quiet as the CD and the best one can do is to 'put up' with the noise and just enjoy the music.I have bought over 50 new LPs in the past 2 months. Most of them are so-called au... | |
| Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions Don't forget that the Feickert also include a "Baerwaald" geometry (so-called "Arc Style") on the 'backface' of the template. | |
| Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions BTW, one other benefit of Feickert is that the thickness of the template is 3mm which is the same as an 180g vinyl. Most of my LPs are 180g so the Feickert allows me to set my VTA in a very handy manner.I find that the user instruction on Feikert ... | |
| Feickert analogue protractor....Owners impressions I just used it to check my Aries-3 + JMW10.5i tonearm, which was previously calibrated using the VPI jig. It's much simpler/quicker to use compare to the VPI jig. The white colored template makes it much easier to align the stylus without the need... | |
| setting azimuth on VPI turntables Sorry guys...I didn't know what I was talking about. There are two output posts for each left and right channel on the back of my amp. Case closed. | |
| setting azimuth on VPI turntables Guys, pls help a newbie here. I have never used a multimeter before, but I know that it has two probes (+ and -). At the back of my amp there's only two output (left and right). So if I'm going to measure the right channel output voltage, I connec... | |
| New Re-Issue Vinyl: Surface Noise, Ticks, Pops.... Stiltskin There are a few inexpensive record player combination that will play vinyl with absolute minimal snap crackle and pops straight out of the sleeve.Stiltskin, can you give a few examples of these "inexpensive" record player combo that mini... | |
| New Re-Issue Vinyl: Surface Noise, Ticks, Pops.... I'm glad that someone started this thread. Apparently I'm not the only one that has problems with new vinyl. I am a complete newbie to the analog world. I spent about $5.5k buying my first analog rig just over a month ago, and spent between $30 to... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Is the Gabriel Gold Revelation directional? I don't see any "arrows" on the interconnects though. | |
| Deep Cleaning Records With Steam? Drubin, You're kidding me! I'm located right at the heart of TEXAS - Houston - and guess what, I can't find "Rain Fresh" in any of the Wholefood market stores that I just visited today!!!!! (I went to three stores!) The purest water I can find is ... |
