| Tonearm recommendation Hello Henry ( and others )I'm back.FINALLY have some time to play and a lot has happened in the past couple of months.First, made an armboard to mount the 66s on the Amazon. Procured a Yammamoto ebony headshell to add to the mix. Started mixing an... | |
| High Output MC Cartridge recommendations? I would go either Soundsmith or Grado w/ one of their high output moving irons instead of a high output moving coil. | |
| Koetsu cartridges - what arms work? I have a rebuilt ( from Koetsu ) Rosewood.Two tonearms.One a Moerch DP8 ( 12 inch, blue armwand )Two a Fidelity Research FR66s. Various headshells. The best fit was the Arche w/ silver leads.The Koetsu sounded sublime in both arms. If I had to pic... | |
| What Step-up transformers are best value? talk to Dave at Intact Audio.Nuff said. He's one of the best winders on this planet.And yes, I use a lot of his stuff in my projects.Cheers, Crazy Bill | |
| Phono cable recommendations - high performance good value cable Gotta second Grover's phono cable recommendation.Currently running between my Moerch DP8 and Decware ZP3, using straight DIN to RCA. Competes with the best.Cheers, Crazy Bill | |
| What's been playing on your turntable and what turntable is it ? Hello No Regrets,Must have been brain dead, but I just noticed your inquiry.First, I absolutely LOVE the Amazon Grand Referenz/Moerch DP8 combo.Incredibly sublime analog reproduction.Second, I can't directly compare w/ absolute certainty the Amaz... | |
| What's been playing on your turntable and what turntable is it ? Good Rats " TASTY " ( Rat City Records, not Warner Brothers ), on my Amazon Grand Referenz/Moerch DP8/AT 150MLX combo.Rocking out !! | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello Henry,It'll take me a while to report.I still need to spend some time with the AT to get a good baseline.After I've got a good fix on the AT, I'll switch to the Shure and take a listen with the stock stylus and report back.Then I'll switch t... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello Halcro,So much for a few weeks.Decided to stick with Ebay and PayPal, as I have some leverage if something is amiss.Here's where I'm at:These coming:http://www.ebay.com/itm/262667268841http://www.ebay.com/itm/122091675405These OK, or did I m... | |
| Tonearm recommendation OK Halcro,I'll give it a shot ( Shure/Jico).It'll take a few weeks to get it here and going. Once I'm happy with the setup I'll listen and let you know what I think.Thanks for the advice.Cheers, Crazy Bill | |
| Tonearm recommendation To anyone who knows FR cartridges.Would this be a good one on my FR66shttp://www.ebay.com/itm/Fidelity-Research-FR-7-cartridge-early-version-with-pure-silver-coil-Ex-RARE...Cheers, Crazy Bill | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello Halcro,Absolutely nothing, but first a couple of questions if I may.as noted above, I have the AT150MLX on the DP8. I love this combo. While I know it's not optimally set up ( my Mint is on the way ), I could live right here and be happy. It... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Thanks Halcro. That clearly is on the horizon.I've always felt the various Denon's I've had here, and the Koetsu Rosewood, would not be my final resting place. While they are good, with both of them I've always felt something was missing. It's ent... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Hello all,I guess it's time to resurrect this thread and move it in a new direction.My buddy struck again, and the Blackbird has been replaced by an Amazon Grand Referenz. I've got the Moerch ( 12 inch ) DP8 on it.My phonostage is presently a Decw... | |
| Tonearm recommendation Lewm,please feel free to post whatever you desire.As to your other question.I use an AT150MLX on the FR66s from time to time. The headshell is light, being I believe a NOS Supex from the 80's. Combination works just fine. |
