ddriveman: I tried the mu metal shield and ERS paper on my Yamaha GT2000 between the original platter and the copper platter mat. I found the ERS paper to give more refined highs, but that could have been due to its damping effect as a slightly soft layer between two metal layers. The mu metal didn't seem to have a beneficial effect and may have had a slight negative one. Anyone else with experiences?
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously?
I have just acquired a 32 year old JVC/Victor TT-101 DD turntable after having its lesser brother, the TT-81 for the last year.
TT-101
This is one of the great DD designs made at a time when the giant Japanese electronics companies like Technics, Denon, JVC/Victor and Pioneer could pour millions of dollars into 'flagship' models to 'enhance' their lower range models which often sold in the millions.
Because of their complexity however.......if they malfunction.....parts are 'unobtanium'....and they often cannot be repaired.
