while the arm is under the designers control, cartridge and turntable are usually made by someone else. Thus the overhang is affected by the size of turntatble plinth, where the hole is drilled and the size of the catridge. So let's say you buy a sota millenia with SME V and and sumiko celebration and it was used to voice that table. You may find that it would be right just by following the manufactures instructions. Use of arm and cartridge of your choice means adjusting accordingly.

After several months finally you achieve to convincing that the step-up transformer is not the best way to go, better say: is not the way to go, for amplified the signal on a phono cartridge. Welcome aboard!!!!!!!!!!!Raul, play fair! I never said an SUT was "best". I only said it was viable for those on a budget. I still believe that. Not everyone can afford a reference quality preamp. My old preamp/phono + SUT's can be bought for < $1,500. My new preamp/phono cost nearly $6K, and if sold through normal retail channels it would cost over $10K. It wins the battle easily, but at that price it should. Still, thank you for the welcome. You and Nick both insisted that FET's could significantly better our SUT's. It took us alot of money and him alot of work, but you were both correct. It does sound amazing. :-) You have to have [two subs]. When that happen you will be really happy about.From careful listening at the concert last week I believe you. Please order me a bigger house! ;-) |
Overhang, I already did, though I'm not surprised you missed it amidst all this other chatter! Check out this post: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?eanlg&1137938333&openfrom&18&4#18 |
