I wonder if the problems that are being experienced are rather simple, obvious ones, that something is somehow being overlooked?
Have any of you possibly tried the use of headphones, o eliminate the possibilities of acoustic interaction?
The Headphones should eliminate any such possibilities.
Yes, I suppose if the Rega is a drop in fit, one could perhaps try that route. And later sell a lesser rega, and go up the Rega ladder.
What about Damping the Arm with a Silicone damping Fluid? I haven't read anyone's comments about trying that?
I've never had the pleasure of trying Lyra Cartridges, but I have with Benz, and they seem to be versatile, and usable on a vast array of Arms.
I sort of find it hard to believe that the way this thread has gone so far, that the concensus seems to point to saying-claiming that all VPI JMW Tonearms are somehow inferior, inadequate and not up to the tasks of performing correctly with many world class MC Cartridges?
That it still could possibly be a lack of understanding-knowledge, and the ability to ptoperly set of these Arms?
Note that I am trying to stay in a neutral territory here, not wishing to ruffle anyone's feathers. Just some food for thought? Mark
