| 8 track tape vs 1st press vinyl I remember the excitement when Toronado was introduced, I was 16. Aside from exciting front wheel drive, it was a 2 door, had HUGE doors, when I closed the door the whole very heavy car shook, seemed like it moved over an inch! Never even rode in ... | |
| Looking to upgrade a new cart to my TT I'm new to MC, drove myself crazy learning about MI, MC, Ohms, SUTs, MC theoretical advantages, one of which is greater channel separation, ...I found, the advantages are rarely realized in measured/published/reviewed specifications, same as with... | |

| Tonearm mounting rigidity and considerations? millercarbon.Impressive arm indeed, I suspect your arm's unique design is pertinent to your 'loose mount' experience" Floating vertical bearings decouple the armtube from the deck, reducing coloration" | |
| Tonearm mounting rigidity and considerations? I go where Bill is going regarding stability: SOLID foundation: I use the OEM arm boards of the deck he has. Like the deck’s 70mm thick 7 layers, the 3/4" arm boards are laminated layers, very tight fittings.He will mess with many arms, thus his i... | |
| Tone controls? Sorry about the heresy. I will not live without remote volume and remote balance control from my listening chair. I also like automatic Fletcher Munson EQ for low volume listening (misnamed ’loudness’ (essentially low volume bass boost) if properly implemented.This Chase... | |
