Brinkman Balance Comparisons

Hi all....you are all welcomed to my home once I get this rig up and running (or before?). Andrew has been here already. We can make some Italian pasta before we listen. Mark (Sirspeedy) you are close by so please come by. Larry (Cello) when I get the Schroder Ref I WILL lean on you for advice and counsel.

Mark....I'm keeping the Breitling...heheheh!

Rick,

I am good friends w. Thomas the owner of TW Acustic. He came to visit me in Aruba. He has a Breitling from my store. I guess TW owners own Breitlings as well. I am wearing the Breitling for Bentley Mark VI with blue dial these days.

Well...just an update.......my T.W. Raven/Tri-Planer/Dynavector VS1 is going to be installed today. I will keep you all posted as to the outcome!

Rick.How happy are ya,today?Best of luck.
Also,my friend Ed(you met him at Sid's)is getting Jeff,after you!He sold Ed the Phantom,and is re-checking it.I hope all works out,for both of you.
BTW,the new issue of Hi Fi News and Record Review has an extensive,multi page layout on selecting an arm,and cartridge to match.With EXTENSIVE input about compliance,bias,etc.This is a MUST,for alot of the posters on this site.Not for the mega advanced crowd,like Raul,Doug,Neil and some others,but a fabulous read.
Best!

Well, the system (T.W. Raven/Tri-Planer Vll/Dynavector X1S) has been installed and I have been listening (4 hours yesterday and 3 hours so far today). I can just comment on something that Albert Porter said (as a mater of fact in this post)......truth is the high end turntable market has pushed technology to places I never thought it would go.

To get to the bottom line..this analog system has made the biggest difference to my system since I upgraded my Infinity 4.5's to my current RS 1-B's.

I will not go into detail about the increase in bass (it's there), the introduction of space/air/darkness (in spades), sense of easiness. What this system is doing for me is simple.......enabling me to enjoy music more!!

The unfortunate thing is that since I did this upgrade of the entire system (table/arm/cartridge) I cannot identify which one was the most significant? But, you know what.....I don't care. It has satisfied my needs!

I'd be happy to answer any an all questions.

P.S. Again a thank yo to all who helped me in this search.
