A Copernican View of the Turntable System

Dear Lew, Your jealousy reg. my arm pod is such that you even use such 'arguments' as gallions and slaves against the innocent thing. I expected, to be honest, some reference to your beloved Newton and his laws but I need
to deal only with the arguments you posted. And those are
to my mind self defeating. No slave had the means to own
both; the TT as well as the tonearm. So obviously the more
probale situation was that there was a TT in one gallion
and the tonearm in the other. If the slaves wanted some music the only possible way was to connect them somehow.

Regards,

Dear Dgob, Where? I went to that page. Raul alludes to the tonearm in his text but there is no photo I can find. There is or was no photo on Raul's "system" site, either. Or are you saying that he just recently posted one there? (But I looked two days ago... nada.)

Dear Nandric, I am trying to be serious again so as not to offend the Copernicans. Clearly, King Philip would bring the arm pod along with him wherever he went water skiing.

Dear Lewm: There are no pictures that I can show yet. When the unit be ready all of you will know and see it through Agon.

regards and enjoy the music,
Raul.

I found a few pictures that give a glimpse of the tonearm, only the headshell area is shown, though. (Thanks Google images!) They are posted on Raul's review of the Audio Technica AT-20SS cartridge. In it he mentions "I mount it in one of my prototype self design tonearms(propietary build materials.)."

Looks promising. Keep up the good work.
