| SME Armboard for Triplanar You should be able to work up the technics plate, as I said just pay attention to clearing all the screws so you can get the arm base flush (let’s jusy say this is something learned through painful experience!) | |
| SME Armboard for Triplanar I don’t think the Triplanar can be fit to an existing SME mount as I had this mounting in my decks second position. Instead you’ll need to drill a new mount Best to avoid drilling new holes in the SME if you can do as not to affect resale, Instead... | |
| Two Protractors - Only One Aligns @lewm is referring to Dietrich Brakemeier at Acoustical Systems, http://www.arche-headshell.de/about-us/could be worth reaching out to the US Distributor who sold Musical Life, Tom Vu at K T Audio. He is now the principal at Triangle Art http:/... | |
| Using an external word clock with Esoteric cd/sacd players I can endorse the Mutec, which handily comes with both 50 and 75 ohm outputs. It does really benefit from a good power cord, footers and of course a superb BNC!But if you’re feeling speedy there’s always this 😁https://www.monoandstereo.com/2018/01... | |
| Smartstylus accessory to SmarTractor-cantilever angle? While I can support the method of directly measuring SRA via a USB microscope it is both awkward and in many cases next to impossible if you have a tricky stylus profile. Furthermore limitations in technique make it difficult to get accuracy to mo... | |
| Magicos are chesty More specifically you should say Magico S series speakers are chestyhaving moved from V3 -> Q3 -> M3 I can say that there are profound changes in tonal profile moving between rangespersonally I have never like the S series finding them rathe... | |
| Mono Cartridge Recommendations Oops - not "Robert" of course I meant Robin Wyatt at Robyatt Audio. Obviously I was thinking of this!https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&... | |
| Mono Cartridge Recommendations As Robert offers a home trial and return policy the best thing to do is to try it out. And stop trying to chase a discount on Miyajima. Robert offers fair prices and good support, simply pick the point in the model line that matches what you are p... | |
| Mono Cartridge Recommendations Re hum. Yes the Miyajimas can cause hum issues. I have a Zero and while I love it you will need to solve hum problemsThe best solution is to use a phono stage or step up with a ground that can be lifted. Either that or having a mono switch on your... | |
| Is there a way to view previous purchase ad/description? Yes -- if it's your purchase it's under your "Bought" list, look at the "original listing" tabAlso if it's someone else or something you remember seeing search via HiFi Shark and look at sold listings, you can pull up descriptions for expired Audi... | |
| Dealing with a power amp that need 20A connection No ARC amp (unless you have a pair of Ref 750 Monos perhaps) needs a 20A breaker and circuit.ARC specify the 20A IEC because they believe its physical and acoustic properties are superior. Also they do not use the 20A male connector because most d... | |
| How to protect seller's rights? The only way to handle this type of case is to immediately offer a full refund and require the buyer to return the item, it’s the old “full refund if not entirely satisfied” trick and eating the return shipping is much less hassle then dealing wit... | |
| A problem with AC Power you may not have considered. I had a full Equitech balanced installation in my home in Los Angeles and had no problems getting the permit signed off. The only requirement was that the balanced receptacles were all labeled “technical power only”the real problem came in selling... | |
| Audio Research IR input In my experience with remote IR sensors the problem 9 times out of 10 is that the re-emitter is too close and is overloading the sensor. This is especially common if you are installing the amp in a cabinet say and don't have much room to operateTh... | |
| I am hunting for a very high end manged power filter. I also used to have the EquiTech but a) it had iffy GFCIs and b) not every component liked balanced power. The Torus is 240v balanced in but standard out which makes it easy to use and it really works well as the basis of my current room (which yo... |
