Amazon One and dps Turntable Experiences?

Hi Flynigred

I perhaps should not have said cogging, probably more motor feedback from the AC motor, which is known as cogging in my view.

Notably there is a web interview with the DPS designer Willi Bauer, and he says the drive belt vs string approach has strengths and benefits on both sides, and I have fallen on the lower torque string approach used on the amazon. Its' platter does have a lot of inertia by sheer size, and has plenty of deep fast well defined bass in my set up which uses a Lavardin IT amp, and Yamaha NS 1000 M speakers.

Try out the Amazon - I tried out several decks before I chose it. It's a matter of taste.

Lohan thanks for the additional information. Which arm are you using?

From my listening experience all I can say, the Amazon Reference impressed me much more than the dps with any Schroeder Arms ( I listened to a few of them ).
I know, it is not quite comparable, because they were not in my System, but the overall high frequency information and the musical flow through the whole range was better with the Amazon / Morch / Lyra than dps /Schroeder/Lyra's.

Hi Flyingred. I am currently using A Morch DP6 arm. At the moment I do not have any silicone put into it - this is on the recommendation of the importer, however I am tempted to put in a bit to lower the resonance, which I think is a bit high at about 13 or 14hz.

I have considered some other arms such as the Breuer/Brinkmann, a Graham, A Schroeder, or a Kuzma Airline. The only concern I have is that the Amazon was developed with the Moerch, and any change may be just audio jewellery with no real improvement, that could be had better elsewhere i.e a new phono stage
