| FR66s vs Ikeda IT-407 CR tonearms Yes, the Dennesen sound track tor is probably the best tool to set up your FR64 and 66 series tonearms besides his uni/smart tracktors. This was confirmed by Dertonarm before he made the Uni or smart tractors. He also told me that there are many f... | |
| Oracle Delphi mk3 is it worth it Make sure it’s an original mk3. There are many that have been partially upgraded and claimed to be a mk3. The mk3 is the turning point with new suspension towers. I have seen some mk2 retrofitted with new towers and usually a botched up job by ora... | |
| Best vintage DD turntables from the 70's and 80's? @chakster Yes I have a Micro Seiki cu180 on mine and centering works properly. The Micro Seiki CU180 does wonders to the sound. I had custom wooden armboards made for the table. Had a Fidelity Research FR66s and a Dynavector 507/2 on it. Served me... | |
| Best vintage DD turntables from the 70's and 80's? Yes it’s the top of the line. Yes self cantering. I am the original owner. Long story...bought it new old stock. A TechDas replaced it and it really made me realize how good the Nak was. I replaced it under the impression that it would be a big up... | |
| Best vintage DD turntables from the 70's and 80's? Not many lucky enough to actually see a TX1000 in action. I had mine for approx 13years. It’s one of the best tables around. Stacks up to many Uber high end tables. Finally replaced it last year. Debating if I should sell it or keep it. | |
| FR66s vs Ikeda IT-407 CR tonearms Another legend passes. RIP! | |
| ClubWOOD or Shun Mook? You can go with the Super..it will handle the weight. If budget permits, ultra and giant would be better. Talk to Bill, he is very approachable and helpful | |
| Shun Mook Record Weight Chrialex, the Shun Mook clamp will definitely work with the Project table you have. It’s not overly heavy. All Shun Mook pieces came laser etched with the logo on it so there wont be much trouble to have them authenticated. And yes the price of th... | |
| SAT 30K+$$ TONEARM: W O R T H T O H A V E I T ? In analog playback, there are just too many variables that can affect the sound. Measurements while good doesn’t mean for something to sound good. Very rarely does good measurements correlates to good sound. Larryi said it best. Digital measures p... | |
| Tone arm ghost What turntable is it? See if there is a way to ground the bearing. It will reduce static. | |
| Technics EPA-100 MK2 wiring Honestly I wouldn't mess with the internal writing and upgrading the rca sockets. Al lyou need is to build a ground wire that fits the dole and use your favourite rca cable with the arm. As mentioned you just just need to remove the a male rca cen... | |
| Technics EPA-100 MK2 wiring Chakster, the size of the grounding pin for these technics tonearms is the same as the male pin in an RCA jack. What I do is to remove the make pin on any rca jack and solder a wire on it and there's the grounding wire. | |
| Turntable getting back to vinyl I would recommend a Technics SL1700mk2 or the SL1800mk2. Both excellent sounding turntables. Basically the home version of the technics SL1200mk2. | |
| What's been your turntable ownership over the years? @rob67i have not found it to be light on the bass. Bass is tight and quick. Not so much fat. No shortage of real bass. Im using a Graham Elite and a dynavector XV1t on it for now. Waiting for other armboards to mount my other arms on it. | |
| What's been your turntable ownership over the years? @rob67the Techdas AF3 has been a remarkable turntable. Very dynamic and quiet. Currently I have a Graham Elite 10" on it. I have other tonearms and cartridges waiting to be installed there. The Graham has been a good match so far. |
