Shout out to Syntax - re: Delos


Syntax,

Thanks for your review of the Delos several years ago. I got one about a year ago based on your comments, tweaked my system a bit, and have been enjoying the resulting music immensely. My system is modest by Audiogon standards, but it must be pretty good because the Delos elevates the level of playback substantially. The cost of the Delos is a stretch for me, but it was more than worth it.

Best regards.

I read that he has the parts to make five arms. They may be all spoken for. If they each sold for the $35K retail price, that would be quite impressive. There are also the new Phantom Elite 12" and Triplanar 12".

Love the screensaver. Does it come with the cartridge? Thanks Syntax.
To get the best out of the cartridge, use other screws. The best screws are copper. Brass is easier to find and also very good. They have a good inner damping, and are sonically neutral. The worst is aluminum. V2A is also to avoid.
When someone uses a separate Headshell, think about better leads. Generally these HS have ultra cheap leads, which are far away from maximum signal transfer. Try Orsonic or Oyaide silver leads.

The screensaver does not come with the cartridge. I tried to find something with a good WAF :-)
Guess we will see some more new tonearm designs this year. looks like designers are very innovative at the moment not only improving on MKV, VI, VII or VIII...

As I said based on WBF, They have sold the 5 tonearms to dealers in ASIA. Seems ASIA is where the $$ are.

Now, where is the 50k tonearm? Where is Daniel? time to put your price up :-)
