Feel Silly Asking This Question Alignment Parameters @rauliruegas : Good advice, for sure, to get a universal alignment protractor if you’ll be changing out arms. Just moments ago, in fact, I took delivery of a new SmartTractor. We’ll see how it goes. I’ve always had a preference for dedicated arc p... | |
Feel Silly Asking This Question Alignment Parameters @lewm : Well said. | |
Developing A List Of Tonearm Candidates For A SOTA Turntable @neonknight : Congrats! I’m excited to hear what you think. | |
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? @mulveling : I certainly respect your knowledge and your ears, and those of Kevin Hayes, too, having been a VAC man myself for a long time. But I have to disagree about the LL1931Ag. I recently picked up a last-gen K&K Maxxed Out with the silv... | |
Audiomods Is A Great Company Great question, couldn’t tell you. All I can offer is experience. | |
Audiomods Is A Great Company @whart : Hey pal! Always good when you chime in! | |
Audiomods Is A Great Company @mijostyn : yeah, that’s the idea: weigh it all first, including your chosen top plate. They work best near the upper limit of the weight range, like within 10 lbs or so. M-K will do custom ranges for surprisingly little up-charge. Steve might say... | |
Audiomods Is A Great Company The fun will be getting it all to balance. Don;t mean to turn this into a Minus-K thread, but @mijostyn : after using M-Ks for a dozen years on multiple turntables, I found the easiest way to balance is to use an oversized top plate of your cho... | |
Audiomods Is A Great Company the MinusK is bouncy. I'm not sure if they have a lock out yet. @mijostyn : If you’re wondering whether Minus-K has a lockout lever of some sort to freeze the suspension, the answer is no, at least not on the BM-8 models I’ve owned in the pas... | |
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? @pindac : very best wishes to you. | |
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? @lalitk, sure thing, you’re quite welcome. If you get it in and want to talk about anything, just PM me. | |
Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? My experience is with the H3000 mk2, so it might be of marginal interest, although my understanding is that the H6500 uses a similar circuit, SUTs, and power supply. I find the Allnic to provide deeply satisfying inner detail and harmonic structur... | |
Anybody here buy a cartridge from 'highendbroker' ? Highendbroker is a dealer on Audiogon. | |
John Mayall has passed away Saw him a couple years ago, first time since the early 70s. Carolyne Wonderland was the star of the show but John was still bringing it. RIP to an important elder. | |
Tube or solid state phono stage? Personally, I’ve never had a solid state phono stage that satisfied me. But admittedly, I have not tried many: a 2-box Trichord Delphini 25 years ago, which was left in the dust by a succession of tube phonos; and recently, a MoFi MasterPhono boug... |
