| Is it ok to stack LPs horizontally? overall, I would say its not a good idea. Records are not an even thickness, the label area stands proud and so does the outer edge, it has a thickening or bead designed to guide the stylus into the start groove, it also helps in the manufacturing... | |
| Great speaker sounds terrible in my room? "They give you a break in time for these?" This was my first thought too. If you heard them in a store, they probably had a reasonable number of demo hours on them. I'm presuming you bought new, so they will require some brake in of the bass dri... | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? @lewm My position is that the newer and top range decks are better, but not massively, each step up is only very small, because the the original was so good in the first place. Arms/Cartridges and accurate set up will have more impact and if yo... | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? If the rest of the system is capable, the SP10 has weight and authority, bass is well defined and timing/separation is good. Basically high on PRAT. Again its not massively better. The 1200G is a good deck, to step up from there you need to be loo... | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? Am I missing something? what's the big thing about the new Coreless motor. All the Technics DD turntables are Coreless are they not? They have produced many variants on different models over the years. Where is this extra build quality people a... | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? @rauliruegas I can appreciate there are differences in the motors, the start up torque is higher on the new one, but start up time is exactly the same. Basic speed stability, wow and flutter is no better (worse). The literature talks about coggi... | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? @rauliruegas You've been reading the marketing hype. The SL-1200 Mk II and SL-1200G are remarkably similar in performance, my source is Technics own spec sheets and in some areas the MkII measures better. For most comparisons performance can b... | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? @chungjh "So are you currently happy with the modded Rega P10?" I'm not sure if this was meant for me? as I can't see mention of a P10 by anyone. My Rega Arm was fitted to a modified SL-1200 mk II. It was an improvement on the stock arm, but n... | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? To the OP After writing two lengthy posts that both got lost in the either, I've given up. Take a look at my Technics projects, a lot of work that made only a small improvement. https://www.jkwynn.co.uk/Projects.html This is why I say try a dif... | |
| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? Sealed box speakers work well for me in a small room. I have heavily modified Yamaha NS-1000m. Now semi active, with replacement Scanspeak 12" bass drivers. Incredible bass depth, detail and control in what is a poor room. Not boomy at all, even a... |
