| TT mats Lew. Nice to read that the copper brings about a positive improvement.One wonders if this issue exists with the new Technics 10R.It does use a similar configuration of motor as the L07D and TT101.From the pics, the Technics appears to have a shiel... | |
| Turntable sounds so much better when... HiI’m with Nandric on this one. Definitely worth trying it without the rubber ring,Curious to read your comments on this.cheers | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners SlawYes Just confirming you point.Cheers | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Happy new year to everyone.Ages ago I replaced the entire arm mounting block and with it the VTA arc slider.At that time I did not have the machining capability to replicate the arc in my design. So I did not copy that feature. I wasn’t too worrie... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? HalcroI'm not shooting any messengers.The time line is an excellent device which tells us average platter speed relative to 33.3 or 45 very precisely. However, if want to properly measure real time platter speed, you need to have granularity down... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? @halcro unfortunately I do not having a working TT or system at present. There was a devastating fire which took out one of my amps, damaged my preamp and speakers.The TT survived but the wiring from arm to Pre was literally vaporized.I do not hav... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Best grooveI was referring to the time line laser at a 3.7 m radiuscheers | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Halcrore the 2 tonearm test.Actually I would be surprised if any of the flag ship DD TTs from that era failed this test.Feedback and sufficient motor torque is all that is needed.re the SP10 MK3, I don't run 2 arms, but I did a timeline test play... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @pegasus I agree, there is likely to be a small reduction in air pressure entering the capillaries due deltaP across the wool and filter paper. Easily sorted by increasing the input pressure slightly. The arm can be operated with and without the... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @pegasus. The bearing tower/manifold is in the concept phase at present.Some features are almost locked in.....> The air feed into the manifold will be like a flattened funnel to slow the airs velocity before it gets to the bearing sleeve. The ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @Chris In my younger days, I did a lot of slalom waterskiing. The sensation is indeed addictive!And your analogy fits the Trans Fi well.I have a revised ET tower on the drawing board. It will probably be made out of Zinc and correct some of the m... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @pegasus What I didn't say, racing to catch a plane.Would need to mount the goose neck upside down and likely drill and tap a new wand clamp thread in the adapter on the other side.My guess is that this would sort the VTA adjustment.cheers | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @pegasus As always your posts are insightful.re the vertical bearing axis, as set up on the ET. Do you see any reason why this could not be lifted to 20-30 degrees? (Warp issues aside.)This assuming there is enough travel in the vertical slide. I ... | |
| Technics SP-10MK3 Turntable and JP Jones Replacement Chip for MN6042 This is, of course, brilliant news.In the past there has always been that little bit of worry eating away at the enjoyment of owning a MK3. "What happens if/when the chip fails?"No more. JP has saved us from this angst and improved on the TT's per... | |
| The Palladian-A step beyond HalcroIt's late, a long day and I have an early flight to your country. I assume that it is hot?Compliance measured in um/mNI think I have the units right? Please excuse me if I haven't.Anyway.... So for a given force we have a measured deflectio... |
