| Tonearm recommendation Lewm,please feel free to post whatever you desire.As to your other question.I use an AT150MLX on the FR66s from time to time. The headshell is light, being I believe a NOS Supex from the 80's. Combination works just fine. | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello all,Still here and immensely appreciating everyone's contributions.Please keep them coming.And I do mean everyone. I have learned a lot.On another note, my buddy struck again.Regardless of how good the FR66s is, he wanted a more modern arm ... | |
| Closed back headphone recommendation Thanks czarivey,Appreciate the recommendation, but the K240 is not closed back, so there will be some audible leakage that will probably bother my wife.Plus, and I’m not being snobbish here, but I’m leaning towards the 1K + price arena. I want to ... | |
| Tonearm recommendation OK flieb, you asked for it.My grandfather on my mother's side was Norwegian, and he was a fisherman. During my teenage years he would take me fishing for flounder ( upon which he relied heavily to feed his family ), along the Ct. shore between Wes... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello ct0517,It's clear from your response, and I'm guessing, of course, that the Ct in your name stands for CT in the good old USA, as I am also from CT and experiencing EXACTLY what you describe in the weather pattern.was -13 this AM when I got ... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Thanks Lewm,I absolutely intend to dial in proper azimuth adjustment no matter which tonearm I am using. I only meant I didn’t need the on the fly adjustment of the Reed 3P which Thomas referrred to. Once I set it optimally with the Feickert progr... | |
| Rpm's and The Strobe Glad you worked it out.Cheers, Crazy Bill | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello Thomas from Bavaria,Now, we're talking.While I still am leaning towards keeping the FR66s, I will humbly admit that going with something more modern has been calling me, even if it's only to my vanity. The ONLY problem I have with the FR66s ... | |
| Rpm's and The Strobe Hello jsmanIf your count of only 30 rpm is accurate, then you're talking about a 10% speed variation. That would be audible.I too have the KAB, along with several other stobes and other devices to check speed ( Feickert ), and the KAB is just as ... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello Stringreen,the same EXACT sequence occurred for me back in 2000 when I had the JMW-10 with a Grado Statement.Your observations mirrored mine exactly.And a difference, as you noted, of only a single drop of oil in the well made all the differ... | |
| Is New Vinyl Exempt from Loudness Wars? Audiotomb,The simple answer is money. People will buy them because they think that new vinyl carefully remastered must sound better than the original stuff.Not so.Now, in most of the cases, the remastered stuff has been carefully remastered by ver... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello all,I'm keeping the FR66s. Many, many thanks to those who have offered advice in this endeavor. Much appreciated.Just a little more advice please. I have three headshells in house. I've got the Arche w/ the aggelos leads, an LP Gear Zupreme ... | |
| Is New Vinyl Exempt from Loudness Wars? It's hit or miss with the new stuff, for reasons stated above. You have to make sure where it's sourced from.However, if you go with the established re-issue labels, such as MoFi, DCC, Classic Records and many others, it's clearly stated the recor... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello Testpilot,I am keeping the FR66s, and I do like my SF. But I'm always willing to try other things. I've got a Fully balanced op-amp kit from Twisted Pear in house that I'll be building w/ battery PS when I find the time to do that.Got any re... | |
| Tonearm recommendation " flieb "" Who unleashed the Kraken ? "Couldn't have said it any better.well done.I won't respond to his gibberish in the hopes he just goes away.There are some other things I wish to address, but it will have to wait until later on, as the NFC ... |
