A Copernican View of the Turntable System

Dertonarm,

"No Audiogoner with any experiences in his/her home set-up?"

To have tried it, I would have had to sell my home and live in the tt.

The wife's not likely to accept that option!

As always

Dgob, wouldn't go that far,... certainly not.
But seriously - anybody having an idea what song they are playing in the Onedof-video on youtube ?
Would honestly like to know.

I agree, Halcro, that the proof's in the pudding. But what does Thucan's and other's rejection or, at any rate, lukewarm reception of this tt prove?

We lack an explanation. It might be, gasp!, the sound of the separate tonearm pod that explains their displeasure. It might be that the bearing design isn't what it's cracked up to be. It might be...etc., etc..

Yay or nay judgments, even if true, take us only so far. That's why, loathe as I am to engaging in technical discussions, it interests me in this case because it might alter deliberations I actually have. For instance, knowing more about that 'q' value could influence future pod material and dimension choices.

Ecir38: cool pics, thanks. Do you know/did you note how the height of the arm tower is adjusted?

By Paul McCartney

LIGHT OUT WANDERLUST,
HEAD US OUT TO SEA.
CAPTAIN SAYS THERE'LL BE A BUST,
THIS ONE'S NOT FOR ME.

TAKE US FROM THE DARK,
OUT WHERE WE CAN SEE.
CAPTAIN'S OUT TO MAKE HIS MARK,
THIS ONE'S NOT TO BE.

LIGHT OUT WANDERLUST,
HELP US TO BE FREE.
LIGHT OUT WANDERLUST,
DO IT JUST FOR ME, WANDERLUST.

OH, WHERE DID I GO WRONG, MY LOVE?
WHAT PETTY CRIME WAS I FOUND GUILTY OF?
WHAT BETTER TIME TO FIND A BRAND NEW DAY?
OH, WANDERLUST AWAY.

LIGHT OUT WANDERLUST,
HELP US TO BE FREE.
LIGHT OUT WANDERLUST,
DO IT JUST FOR ME, WANDERLUST.

CAPTAIN'S OUT TO MAKE HIS MARK,
THIS ONE'S NOT TO BE.

LIGHT OUT WANDERLUST
(Oh, where did I go wrong, my love?)
HEAD US OUT TO SEA
(What petty crime was I found guilty of?)
CAPTAIN SAYS THERE'LL BE A BUST
(What better time to find a brand new day?)
THIS ONE'S NOT FOR ME
(Oh, Wanderlust away)

DROPPING A LINE,
MAYBE THIS TIME
IT'S WANDERLUST FOR ME.

D - sorry don't know the song but the blonde in the back is really cute :^)
The guy next to her though doing the cueing, I would not let near my gear. He looks like he could do some serious damage.
