| Oswald Mill Audo Saskia Idler Turntable Innards? Ketchup-Think about what you've said: " I would never considering buying something sight unseen (even if I did hear it)". Now, presumably, if you'd "never consider buying something sight unseen", you'd be in a position to see "what's under the hoo... | |
| Oswald Mill Audo Saskia Idler Turntable Innards? There's one sure way to find out...at a price. | |
| sds powered on constantly??? Jsman-*Mine is 16"W x 3.75"H x 9"D*Definitely a sonic improvement with my VPI Aries2 ext. w/ 12.5 arm. Immediately apparent with the first record played.*I suppose you can keep it running All The Time, but I doubt there's a sonic reason to do so, ... | |
| sds powered on constantly??? Kgturner-that's how I do it. | |
| Experience w/ Trans-Fi Auio Terminator Tone Arm? Elizabeth, once again...."...no-one else ever heard of it...""...no-one ever heard of.. except one guy.."Contrary to your statements, this is a well-known arm. Poul Ladegaard, the builder, is very well known for his arm design, and his willingness... | |
| Which MoFi and MoFi UHQR LPs? Use popsike http://www.popsike.com/ to see what they've sold for in completed auctions-as opposed to any 'price guide', this will provide a real monetary value, i.e. what someone has actually paid.You can also see completed auctions at ebay ('Adva... | |
| Low level Hum in Phono Signal Path Acoustat6-Yeah, nice. The guy's trying to explain, in detail, his issue, and he's mocked for his efforts. I'll assume you're a Community College graduate, so I'll explain this like I'm talking to a six year old: believe it or not, there are 'hum' ... | |
| MintLP arc protractor If you're concerned about your headshell slots having enough 'play' to allow you to mount a specific cartridge, I'd suggest you first print out an arc protractor on conrad hoffman's site http://www.conradhoffman.com/chsw.htm, using your measured S... | |
| Count Up Timer Okay-I've got no idea why this post wasn't 'allowed', but I'll try once more. Maybe there's a 'desk tally' advertiser here whose toes I'm stepping on. Or something. Anyway, here goes...I use a 'desk tally' http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku... | |
| LOMC... phono stage okay, but which cart? Thanks 'Tom hankins', you described the differences better than I could have. Right on the money. | |
| Best Outer Sleeves for LPs I use the Japanese mylar resealable http://www.elusivedisc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=JPNOUTERLP. I've used them for many, many years (20+) and there's never been a size or quality issue. Plus, they remain crystal clear. More expensive perhaps, but w... | |
| Am I going sideways? Raul...I think that's wise advice. | |
| LOMC... phono stage okay, but which cart? Amazing...or...something. I too was going to suggest trying to stretch the budget a bit for the XX2. The 17D3 is a good cart, but the times I've heard it, it seemed a little 'hotter' than the usual DV sound. If you like the house sound, the XX2 is... | |
| Am I going sideways? "I wouldn't go too high up the ladder with the Dynavector...."Whaaa? The XX is a fantastic cart, one that I'd wager could hold it's own with any deck and arm! I'm going to assume you meant the DV as mated to the Rega, with which I might agree...Oh... | |
| Am I going sideways? What's the rest of your system? You've got a *great* cart, your arm is decent, and I'm only familiar with your tt through name. You could throw a lot of money at your system and not (in fact, never) overtake your cartridge. In particular, perhaps ... |
