Tonearms: the lightest, the best ? What is light? What is heavy?What is a low compliance. I do not favour these vague terms. Have you read Ladegaard's 1977 paper? Splendid:It tells me, that not compliance nor effective mass are important.But the Hz's of the rf and the dB's of the r... | |

Low, medium and high compliance cartriges. Pboutin,supposing I understand your question I am amazed by the intelligence of it! I would say that still when there is a good match between effective mass and dynamic compliance, there is no real basis for the assumption, that the higher complia... | |
Effective "effective mass" primer for dummies Hi Goatwuss,high effective masses are not bad and low ones neither. The influence of warps is not different for high and low effective masses, as long as the resonance frequency is the same.So there must be the right dynamic compliance for a certa... | |
Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long Tw1,for some reason or another I never discover this thread. Just to add something to the discussion I would like to mention the following: I opened a discussion at Vinyl Engine which concerns the theoretic background of effective weight in the la... | |
cartridge for a magnepan unipivot Hmm.. Not MC- carts on this arm! | |
cartridge for a magnepan unipivot There are now some publications at Vinyl Engine about this arm and a discussion at the forum overthere. | |
Where to start? New to Analog This BSR is really socks. The Dual should be much cheaper. Listen to the Thorens hobbyists. They know about TT's.Or look for a nice Dual 505 MkII. Or a Technics 1700 or 1200 or a Technics tangential like SL- J1 This is a later product. | |
Resonant Frequency 23 g for the arm plus 2 g for the bolting plus 6 g for the cartridge makes a total effective mass of 31 g. When you plan to reach this 9 Hz, what dynamic compliance did you enter in the calculations? Can you supply some fixed points on this? | |
Where to start? New to Analog Pre amps Nad PP1 or Project Phono Box have the best price quality ratio IMO to start with the hobby.And used Thorens TD 150 or TD 160 (or 165/ 166/ 145/ 146/ 147) are very pleasant starter- TT's. Give many posibilities for mods and tweaks | |
Resonant Frequency Stefanl,Did I forget the ultimate mod?This interesting subject on resonance frequency has been forgotten since the 80's. Within this thread we discovered that we all are very unsure about the real pre's and cons. Much can be read on VTA and azymut... | |
Resonant Frequency Hi, I am the guy who started this whole discussion. Whhhhooooh...! Did I frighten you?11Hz would be splendid, but higher values are better. At Vinyl Engine you can find this other thread, where you will find out that a Rega RB 250 is 11 to 13 g ef... | |
Thorens TD165 in perfect shape. What cartridge? Always look at the cartridge' s compliance. Nowadays vinyl know- how is isolated at the desk of the manufacturer of very expensive items, whereas in the glorydays of vinyl, each reviewer had the courage to define the compliance of a cartridge. Ver... |
