@johnnybwood I was thinking that this sounds like something is not gelling. So I checked out the Stereophile review (I’m not a reviewer fanboy) just to get an idea of their opinion. Long story short, the reviewer hated the Ortofon 2M Bronze on this table and requested a different cartridge. You might start there. Good luck.
Tonearm resonance
Always have had an issue with tonearm noise. I can't afford the the to spend a fortune on a turtable but I just love the sound of vinyl. I have an MMF 7.3 with the stock tonearm and ortofon bronze cartridge which I'm planning to upgrade to a Hana EL most likely. Anyway, I just saw Funk Firm decouplers online the other day and am curious as to whether it is effective or not. If anyone has had experience with it I would love to hear about it. Thanks

Furshur not a lot of fans of the bronze but still a step up from what I had. I believe also an Ortophon OM2. Was considering a Hana EL. Just bought a pair of Rel s510 subs and one of my amps lost a channel right after so I’m a bit spent out for the moment. As soon as I get my wind back from that I will be diving into turntable issues whole hog! Will need a laundry list of alignment tools for that venture. Cheers |
HAD money for subs! I love vinyl but it’s not the only source I listen to. Certainly tweaking what I have is a worth while effort and a means to leapfrog to something better down the road. Any thing I do now could be applied there including cartridge, isolation (like the Funk) and alignment tools.Yes, a VPI or Linn is a worthwhile upgrade but for now I have to work with what I’ve got. All part of the joy! Cheers |
where is @mijostyn when you need him? |
