| sme 30/2 or TW Acustic Raven AC3 PeterThe Minus K just cleans things up and makes it even more quiet. It was helpful in my house because my room faces the street which is a high traffic area, also it is an upper floor. I had no problem with foot falls, but anything can help. It i... | |
| sme 30/2 or TW Acustic Raven AC3 I had a SME 20 for two years then the SME 30 for at least three years, I now own a TW AC-1 which I have had since 2006.TW is as quiet, if not better at making the vinyl sound quiet and clean. It beats the SME 30 in pitch stability and drive even w... | |
| TW-Acustic Raven Belt question? I have been using the same belt since I got mine three years ago. Jeff and Thomas of TW say it is fine. It gets up to full rotation as fast as the day I got it so I can't see the need to replace it. | |
| 2nd tonearm on HRX Peter Ledermann of Soundsmith has his VPI HRX with two tonearms. The second arm is a Schroder Ref. He has custom platform bolted of the left rear pillar of that table. Look very well done. I saw is at the RMAF the last couple of years and thought ... | |
| Adjustment on Breuer Tonearm The adjustment knob on the side of the arm is for dynamic tracking adjustment. You can set the counterweight and then add more VTF with that knob up to aprox. 1.1 grams. Gently turn the knob counter clockwise to add more dynamic tracking force. | |

| Spacer between cartridge and headshell on Breuer HI ClabeI have seen a guy use a spacer on his Breuer for that reason, and it came from Graham Engineering, same shape as the Phantom headshell, but it looked ok in the pictures. That would be your easy solution.Your other option, and Jeff from Hig... | |
| Graham Phantom vs. Phantom II Can you tell us what you think of it in comparison to the original. | |
| Graham Phantom vs. Phantom II SyntaxI had a Phantom and thought it was a great arm. Mine was a Phantom, but it essentially was a II. I think the only difference at that time was the armwand. A friend has a old Phantom, one of the early ones. I helped him set it up and thought ... | |
| Best cartridge for Breuer 8C Thanks for the compliments, a good dealer, some friends a lot of time and patiencs, and money got me that setup. It is all fun though. I am really lucky to be able to afford some of this stuff.The full length wiring is not done by Mr.Breuer, Thoma... | |
| Best cartridge for Breuer 8C I use a Wally Tractor for my setup. Hard to get your hands on one though. I use Loefgren geometry.It is farily easy to setup like all typical slotted headshell type arms. The pivot to spindle must be exact though!I terminated mine with an RCA bloc... | |
| Best cartridge for Breuer 8C I have been using a Breuer 8C MK II for a few months now, and it replaced a Schroder DPS with Ref magnets.For me the Breuer has been the best arm I have ever owned. I have had many through my place too!To answer your question, I am using the Dynav... | |

| Raven Black Night HI BarbapapaI know the Battery PSU will be avaiable but not too sure if the motor unit will be available outside of the Black Knight. It will be expensive though if it is. I am curious as to how the motor unit would improve the Raven AC with the B... |
