Raul,
**Richar obviously don't take the " road " posted here:
" People don't know what it means anyway. Imagine a turntable going from 70dB S/N to 90dB !! You could pretend to rewrite the laws of physics with some doubletalk ..... "
that IMHO is almost an " insult " to the audio community but each one can gives its opinion in this " free world ".**
It seems my joke/sarcasm went over your head, but that's understandable given a previous post:
**Lewm, just think this:
suppose that your unit, before the mods, was running on manufacturer specs. Example 92db on SN ratio: what if after the mods that " figure " gone down to 84db?**
You were talking to Lew about Richard's mods. Before this post I would have guessed that everyone on this thread knows those S/N figures on a turntable are impossible.
S/N ratio on a component like a preamp is referenced to an output voltage level. S/N on a turntable is a rumble figure and is limited by the dynamic range of a record. Maybe you'll tell us you meant something else, but that was the topic.
I deleted an earlier post which I thought might be too harsh.
Happy holidays,
