| Kudos to Peter Ledermann at Soundsmith I want to add my kudos to SS. I sent off my Sumikp Blackbird with a bent cantilever to have him do his thing. About 1 week later I had my cart back with a straight cantilever for just the price of shipping. Nice work Peter! Saved me $250 bucks at ... | |
| Solid State Phono Pre-amp Recommendations If you are at all handy with a soldering iron, try the Phonoclone 3, kicks many phonostages' under the bus for less than $100.00 or so. 180 pages of help and advice here: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/analogue-source/57398-phonoclone-vsps-pcb-hel... | |
| Trans Fi Terminator T3Pro - which cartridge I know this is quite an old thread resurrected but I thought I'd put my 2 cents in. I'm happy with my Sumiko Blackbird feeding a DIY Phonoclone3 phonostage into an all tube system. The arm is mounted on a VPI HW-19. I have a hard time imagining be... | |

| What's your SDS setting? Oddly enough 58.79 Hz gives me perfect speed with a KAB strobe on my TNT. Weird huh? | |
| Linear tracking vs. Pivoted tracking tone arms. I've got to chime in here. I've been running a Trans-Fi Terminator low pressure air bearing tonearm that is affordable, simple to set up and sounds fantastic. Easily runs with my SME-V which I also love. The music flows so beautifully off the Term... | |
| Anvil turntables I met Mr. McDougall at AK Fest recently. While I did not get to listen to his table, he seemed very concerned with producing a great cost effective TT. His sincerity was evident, that combined with Fremer's glowing review portends good things from... | |
| Replacement for VPI TNT mark v Another thought, Fremer just reviewed a table called Anvil and really liked it. Small footprint, relatively cheap and built here in Detroit area. Never heard one, but I have talked to the guy making them and HE sounded good. | |
| Replacement for VPI TNT mark v I have a TNT Mklll with SME -V as well as a HW-19 with a tTerminator T-3. The smaller table runs right with the larger one. I attribute that to the tonearm on the HW-19. I would suggest picking up a used 19 adding the Terminator and you'll have pl... | |
| Experience w/ Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Tone Arm? It is hard to compare the two. I seem to enjoy the way the music just seems to "flow" out of the rig with the T-3 in it. The system consists of a HW-19 Mk3-4ish. Sumiko Blackbird cartridge that feeds a DIY Phonoclone 3 phono stage. That runs into ... | |
| Experience w/ Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Tone Arm? Redglobe, I'm in the Detroit area. If you want to spend the time to come to Detroit, you can hear my T-3 on a VPI HW-19.WntrMute2@aol.com | |

| VPI SDS speed issue While I was sorting things out with my set-up I used grease that was too heavy, To trouble shoot, you can eliminate the step-down voltage drop quite easily. Try that and see if the speed remains constant. Then you can try the different drop down s... | |
| Experience w/ Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Tone Arm? Thanks for the help guys. I wonder if a specialty forum might be in order for guys like us somewhere? AK, AA, or Audio Circles. Any thoughts? |
