| Garrard 301 - Project “How does 301 at this point compare with the SME” @mdalton Too early to make any assessments cause 301 is not completely dialed in. But I do see myself enjoying 301, for a very long time. SME 15AV is a great sounding TT, much quieter and robust ... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project “Your problem though is one of isolation” @fsonicsmith I agree. I spent the weekend reconfiguring my system by switching out to a much heavier rack and pulled out couple of digital components that weren’t in the system due to limited rack space... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @mdalton I honestly don’t recall, I must have gone through half a dozen configuration. I can’t check again until everything is put back together, hopefully by tomorrow. | |
| Garrard 301 - Project “It is most likely caused by your stand and suspended floor” @noromance I suspect just as much. I am counting on my other rack which is roughly 3x in width and weight to provide better isolation. The plinth has a cavity / opening to accommodate ... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @lewm Sorry for being vague…the main issue is chassis vibrations. As I increase volume, the vibrations in plinth increases causing stylus to jump up or skip grooves. Day 1 was worse as even the footfalls were causing stylus to jump. After instal... | |
| Next step up on the streaming food chain? “His opinion changes to match his inventory.” @tony1954 Touché 😊 I don’t bother myself to read any of his posts. | |
| Can You Trust a Shipper? (UPS, Fed-Ex, etc) @awise1961 Insurance through FedEx and UPS is worthless. When it comes to paying up, they will do all possible to accept any responsibility. Your best insurance is packaging, pack well to the point that box can withstand 3 stories drop or pallet... | |
| Can You Trust a Shipper? (UPS, Fed-Ex, etc) With FedEx or UPS, do your due diligence and hope for the best. If you want extra care; pay bit more, palletize and ship it via FedEx Freight. High value content, opt for signature required. Even then, no guarantees. If you’re OCD about the shippi... | |
| Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? “What do I prefer? Accuracy” Accuracy in tonal balance, timbre, detail and imaging along with the lack of distortion, accurate transient response and dynamic capability. @mijostyn I think most people would agree with this. I don’t want to misc... | |
| Step Up Transformers….Are they Worth the Trouble? @lewm @mijostyn A strong choice or preference for a component in a system is only an indicator that component works well with rest of the components and to user liking. A manufacturer design their components to be universally acceptable in an a... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @fsonicsmith Thank you so much for taking the time to chime in. This is exactly what I was hoping to hear from someone who has a deep understanding of Garrard. The turntable and tonearm was professionally installed by my dealer. We went whole n... | |
| Fiber or Eithenet “I guess I’m asking if I should convert to fiber at my switch next to my router, run 50 feet of fiber and convert to ethernet just in front of my DAC or run 50’ of ethernet and convert to fiber and then back to ethernet just in front of my DAC.” ... | |
| Garrard 301 - Project @mdalton From what I can see, Audio Grail rebuilt is on par with Woodsong. I think the biggest differentiator between your 401 is high quality plinth + feet and then wall mounting + no subs. The way I see my options moving forward; order another... | |
| Fiber or Eithenet For 50FT run, Linkup cable would be more than adequate for your application. |
