Truth is that I never left a record spinning in the run out track for very long.
My audio group is well represented with vimyl devotees with it's chief proponent being Llyod Walker of Walker Audio Proscenium TTs. His favorite cartridge was at one time something called a Magic Diamond. They were on a couple of our groups Walker owners. These guys are/were very careful, not a klutz like myself. As good as they are/were they had "ripped" out the moon rock impregnated einsteinium boron alloy stylus which is repaired only one way. You buy another . At $5,000 a pop.
My humble little rig is actually backed up with Technics sansui etc.a Few Linear tracking tables even the SP 10. They never sound as goodas my Table. I never invested a few hundred into a cartridge for a $50 pawn shop garage sale TT.
Now that you have given me permission to let the stylus hit the paper. Can anyone really think about why a few extra bits would cost so much in the quality of playback. The differences between this entry level VPI and an 80s Mid Fi table are not subtle.
Truth be told the fancier they get the more honest they are. Lloyds personal rig is not the analytical detail retriever he has at shows. His has been modded to the point of sheer musicality.
Even though being a member will give you the table for less than a long pair of Synergistics or Stealth Indra ICs.The table is free but you have to buy a cartridge cable stands anti resonance pucks contact enhancer Valid points (a very good deal really beiung valid is honestly a trip.) All of which adds up to the MRSP.
Seriously you think a used Dual will sound as good as the scout. I will sell off my carefully selected collection of reserve of extra tables just for that.
I still can't quite figure out when buying a turntable meant a platter that spins with the entire remaining necessary parts like the arm as separates. Well I 'll look or trade down for an in.
Thanks.
