Denon 103R on a MMF-7 I'm wondering if the 103R is a good fit for the Project at all, but I never tried it when I had an MMF 7. I would think a more compliant cartidge would be a better choice." - The male connections on the 103R are way too small for the female tonear... | |

Anybody heard Galibier or JC Verdier turntables? I won't presume to speak for Thom, or Chris, but I can't help but think that what may be at work hear is the change in bearing surface contact area as the delrin thrust plate breaks in.

Tracking Force Gauges SirSpeedy, will a gallon of MD 20-20 suffice? Or Boones Farm perhaps?Opalchip, I have a guage very similar to the one's in your links. The difference here is the the scale we're talking about (assuming the claim is valid) has precision that is a m... | |
Tracking Force Gauges That big ad on the Acoustic Sounds web page got me spooked so I went ahead and ordered one from Audio Note Singapore. SirSpeedy, seems like you're having pretty good results with yours. It is definitely better than the scale I have. | |
Anybody heard Galibier or JC Verdier turntables? Rugyboogie, Those who can are traveling to Boulder that weekend to hear Galibier, Schroeder, Dynavector, Teres and what ever else can be squeezed in.

Anybody heard Galibier or JC Verdier turntables? SirSpeedy, I feel your pain. I've been 'table-less for nearly six months and as of last Wednesday my system is totally down. I agree with you about bearing wear not being much of an issue on most any of the higher end tables. Including many we hav... | |

How to set SRA after determining true vertical? Chill out, Neil! We're having fun! You're right, of course. Sorry to car-jack your thread. I've bookmarked it for reference when my next table shows up. It's been almost 6 months. I think I getting hives! | |
How to set SRA after determining true vertical? Doug,I knew exactly what the shrugs, nods, etc., meant. And interpretting those indicators is what made it so much fun to watch. I hope we can all get together again before too long. I will have another pre-amp by then and quite possibly another p... | |
How to set SRA after determining true vertical? Hi all,Doug, I do remember that the arm tube seemed a bit low at the pivot but that could have been the angle at which I was viewing it. I've come to learn not to worry so much about arm orientation thanks to threads such as this. What most impres... | |
How to set SRA after determining true vertical? I'm right there with you, Andrew. The starting point has always been something of a mystery to me but this thread provides a very repeatable methodology. |
