| Rega Planar 3 : Heavily upgraded yet produces a sound that I don't like "I tried a Ortofon Red on my Planar 3 based on all of the bang for the buck reviews. I added a spacer to help with the VTA etc.Hated the sound it was basically as you described. "Dougsat,I will make sure VTA and speed are correct of course but I d... | |
| Rega Elicit R 2019 vs Rega Elicit MK 1 1992 reubent,That's impressive.Audiojedi,Note that even the higher end Aethos has a combined P/S for both channels.It seems to be careful musical consideration rather that a cost cutting measure.A matter of where it's better to put the money. After all... | |
| Linn Karik's CD drawer cannot be closed "Linn has no factory support or parts"Is it due to financial problems ? | |
| Linn Karik's CD drawer cannot be closed A Karik lasts forever. It sounds (as a mere transport) better than a few modern ones I tried that cost well above above a 1000$.I'm connecting it to the Cary Xciter DAC and they live happily for a few years now. Currently I'm not in the financial ... | |
| Cary Xciter DAC : USB input hit by lightning I think I made a mistake in observation. The M2tech Hiface 2 will probably require a new RCA digital cable so I will no longer need the Kimber Kable USB cable.So the question now is : Will reverting to M2tech Hiface 2 + a new digital RCA cable con... | |
| Replacing the stock power cable of the TT Speaking of external controller...what would be a recommended kit ? | |
| Replacing the stock power cable of the TT Photon46,You convinced me. Since in TT the signal path has nothing to do with the AC grid, a power cord should not improve anything. | |
| Replacing the stock power cable of the TT I have the motor upgrade installed. | |
| Replacing the stock power cable of the TT I agree with what you said about speed controller but it is a value for money issue. The 200$ I spent on the Kimber power cable for my CD transport unit were the best 200$ I ever invested in my stereo system. High quality power cables provide isol... | |
| Linn Linto and Ortofon Rondo Red Thanks Dtc :-) | |
| Rega RB300 tonearm VTA adjusters I called Michell Eng and they agreed that I'll send them back the VTA adjuster together with my original nut. They'll speachialy produce a VTA adjuster that will replicate the thread of the nut that I have. | |
| Rega RB300 tonearm VTA adjusters I got the isokinetik VTA adjuster for the Rega RB300 tonearm and found out that the thread did not fit the RB300. While the original nut fits the the thread of the RB300 beautifully the VTA adjuster doesn't.Thinking it's a matter of bad thread I s... | |
| Rega RB300 tonearm VTA adjusters Yes Viridian,I misspelled Triskaidekaphobic which is an album I like.It means a fear from the number 13.Man... and I thought my TT has attention to details :-P ... | |
| Rega RB300 tonearm VTA adjusters As far as the pictures can tell the isokinetik seems to be the only one made of SS where as the other ones are made of Aluminum.An advantage, I think...(The Pete Riggle is made of gold and diamonds :-) ) | |
| Rega RB300 tonearm VTA adjusters Regarding the 1 1/8 hole needed...This is the tool for the job, right ?http://www.ebay.com/itm/Irwin-10239-Unibit-9-High-Speed-Steel-Step-Drill-Bit-7-8-and-1-1-8-/300791331175?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item46088f7967 |
