Brinkmann vs TW Acustic

Goldeneraguy,

can you read, your assumptions are just that and not facts, you are in lala land like allot of the other TW fans.

See below what I wrote in response to Dgad.

Now read it slowly;

THAT'S AN OUT RIGHT LIE, who told you that CRAP! You need to get your information correct before posting such malicious false information.

So you THINK you know so much who did I buy mine from?

.... Dev had a lovely supper ....

wrong timing :-)

times were always tough ...

Dev,Really!! Of course I can read.And by the way comprehend
also.Which is what you fail to do.
This has nothing to do with your reply to Dgad.
I'm now starting to wonder if your temperment allows you to appreciate the music.
Calm down and try to fully understand what posters are saying.
Syntax isn't upset

Those commenting on TW Acustic are a lively bunch. Where are the Brinkmann devotees? And what about the original question?

Dev,

Ball bearing? My BN does not. Green inside the platter but my bearing is similar to my AC which is a steel shaft that is convex on top. Are you sure you had a ball bearing?

Any photos. From what I understand they are all the same design and the shaft can be changed but the platter is more difficult to change the sleeve.

Aside from your troubles with design, you did mention liking the sound a lot originally. What changed. L

My experience has been either cartridge setup or phono stage loading make a huge difference. As for my turntable, one thing I found is if the spring based suspension system I custom made was loaded wrong it would collapse the entire analogue experience. Bass would muddy and highs would lose extension. The key is that the music must not travel into the arm and effect the performance of the cartridge.

I have redone the set up on a few friends systems and the improvement in sound was incredible. I feel that you can bring the best turntable and compare it to a simple Rega and the Rega will outperform of the setup allows for such.
