| Ingress Audio Engineering Very interesting thread, albeit I’m two years late... machina dynamica website seems short of resources (I cannot see some photos). Geoff are you still behind your business? Might be interested in your springs.Stefano | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Hi all,I succesfully tested the tweak efficiency with a higher compliance cart (Goldring 1042, 24N/mm lateral compliance) and something around 5gr. weights.I guess the idea to add inertial mass "is here to stay", even if with different masses and/... | |
| Record-playing Rituals? Amusing...I took the LP out, I put it in a kitchen alu double foil to deal with statics, put on the platter, use a fiber carbon cleaner to remove any small dust particle, look at the stylus (if not ok clean with a small brush, else sand paper - no... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Hi all,Eric many thanks for sharing the VTA/VTF/Antiskating procedure!The hanging cw trick is still waiting...Woud you mind explaining the Thorsten advice about cart/arm decouple? Is it similar to Len Gregory "The isolator" principle?Stefano | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Finally it plays!My TT, born as a string driven unit, build on arectangular shaped plywood with cadberg and scheupieces, now is a nice drop-shaped, multi sandwich,lead filled unit.It's suspended on air (inner tube). Themotor unit drives the platte... | |
| Paint Removal? There are paint remover spray which are absolutely non toxic. I used one by Saratoga to rip paint off a rega arm.HTH,Stefano | |
| Great service from Mark Levinson and Madrigal Hi all,I bought a used Proceed CDD from a dear friend of mine, living in USA. As I live in Italy with a different mains 220v/50Hz, would you be so kind to give me some e-mail address, in order to ask how to use this unit in my system?Thanks a lot,... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Thank you Tom,I think (at least hope ;-) ) I'm aware of it. The overall resonance frequency of my actual setup would benefit from such a reduction. Should I need more mass, e.g. by changing cartridge, I thought I could add it nearer the pivot (or,... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Hi all,following Jeff Spall masterwork at www.william-reed.net/rega, I'm trying to apply some ideas to my RB 250 arm, and just wanted to share with your experience/thoughts:I already equipped my Rega 250 with an Expressimo endstub and counterweigh... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Hi Tom,thanks a lot for your most clarifying post. It worked even for a dummy like myself :-). It seems I'll start looking for an available lead shaft. Thanks a lot.Stefano | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long About the hanging counterweight,is it possible to point me to a photo of such implementation? Isn't it loosely hanging and, therefore, blurring the rotating inertia of the arm? Please let me understand :-)Ciao, Stefano | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Ciao Tom,thanks a lot, I already got an Expressimo stub and cw which satisfied me a lot! The idea behind your strange tweak intrigued me and I tried to estimate the math relationship between cartridge lateral compliance and additional rotational i... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Ciao Tom,thanks a lot for your kind answer!Meanwhile, yesterday I tried with a small amount of tack and used 2 small bits of an unknown metal (each about 2,3 gr.).I must say that, at least, I didn't hear any drawbacks with my Goldring 1042. Indeed... | |
| Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Hi TWL, thanks a lot for this great thread and information sharing. I just learned of your tweak. Owing a 250, with expressimo cw, and a cart with a much higher compliance 25 µm/mN (so 5 times DL103's one), I was thinking if, in your opinion, a li... |
