I do not agree that everything that is audible is measurable. First, we often/usually do not know the connection between measurements and what we hear, although that would probably not trouble Mijo. Second, what about persons that insist that one fuse can sound different from another or that fuses have directionality? I don’t doubt that they hear what they say they hear, but I do doubt that anyone could measure the cause of the phenomenon, except where some boutique fuses do not meet underwriters laboratory specifications for current rating and resistance across the fuse. And if you could measure it with an instrument, you still would not know that the difference in measurement has anything to do with the auditory differences claimed by those who claimed them without doing further tedious experiments . By posting this, I do not wish to start a battle with anyone who is a fuse fan boy. To each his own. I am just using the fuse thing as an example where you may hear something, but it is not necessarily measurable. There are really dozens of such examples I could have chosen.
Sota or Technics
Hello all, first time post here.
I am in the market for a new TT under 2k. I've narrowed it down to the Sota Comet and the Technics 1200GR.
Going to use a $300 to $500 MM cart.
System consists of NAD533 TT (currently). NAD pre amp, Cambridge Phono pre amp, Mac 240 amp, TDL compact monitors.
Sota i like as it uses the 330 tonearm, is built in the states, solid rep, solid support, is pleasing to the eye.
Technics I like as it's built like a tank, seems more plug and play has a good rep and looks good too. (more bells and whistles, both positive and negatives there)
Obviously they are different in some ways. Direct drive vs belt etc..
Was wondering if anyone had an opinion either way on either deck. Greatly appreciate any feedback.
Thank you
