| Rega 700 rewire Dear Frogman, Roy Gandy is known as a guy with very strongopinions regarding (for our context) the wiring and the rigidity. So no VTA adjustment of any kind in (co) relationto the 'importance' of the rigidity. To the critics of the wiring in his R... | |
| Rega 700 rewire Learsfool, According to Kershaw (Audiophilia,nov.2001 ; Google: Rega 600) the Rega 600 got the same wire as Rega 900. Ie 'low capacitance Klotz'. Since all those Regas areactualy the same 'construction' the wiring and 'selected bearings' are the p... | |
| Rega 700 rewire Raul& Frogman, see: Google 'Rega 700'; Rega 301 vs Rega 700. It seems that even in Rega 600 the wiring was improved( in comp. to the Rega 300).BTW rewiring the Rega is very easy. See: www.tnt-audio.comor Google 'Rega rewiring'; Analogue Bits.R... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Dear Dgob, that "the issue of 'art','knowledge' and 'truth'are equally complex and aporetic" does not mean that we should confuse them. To me those aredifferent 'categories'.But I am an 'Fregean guy' and you are, I assume, an Kantian kind of perso... | |
| Rega 700 rewire Hi Birdmanpa, The 'identity' is an very difficult notion. So one will assume: 'audio note = audio note'. Alas this is not the case.There is the British 'Audionote' and there is the Kondo-san'Audionote' from Japan. The Britons have stolen the 'bran... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Dear Dgob, refering to 'hearing' will not do. We all hear(normal hearing presupposed) in the same way. But in theinterpretation of what 'we hear' the whole brain (seems) to be involved.My basic assumption is the difference between 'knowledge' and ... | |
| are subwoofers anti-audiophile? Hi all, My reference to Joachim Gerhard was not accidental.Those guys by Sterophile are reviewers not designers ofloudspeakers. Whom are you believing more? Every singlemodel of Gerhard was an great succes. If one considers howdifficult it is to d... | |
| are subwoofers anti-audiophile? Hi Kijanski&Drew, I am an admirer of Gerhard and enjoyed Virgo 2 and Calderas very much. The Medea was an very confusing loudspeaker to me; never heard something similar.But those were to expensive for me so this problem was 'solved' anyhow.Bu... | |
| are subwoofers anti-audiophile? The designer Joachim Gerhard (Virgo,Caldera,Medea) keep away from 'enything' below 40Hz in the mentioned loudspeakers. But for those that parsist on organ music he produced some subs... Maybe that the 40 Hz 'bondary' was some kind of 'idee-fixe'fo... | |
| Linn LP12 My quess is that those demned springs are the cause. I remember that each time I approached the lift my heart sinkand I already had heart trouble. So I bought some other TT.No heart problems since.Regards, | |
| Is There An "Absolute" Best Cartridge? Dear Downunder, Munich is an splendid idea . For me a piece of cake to get there from Holland. There is however aproblem. This Dertonarm guy seems to be very strong and heis,besides, an descendant from very dengerous German warriors. Ie I would li... | |
| Is There An "Absolute" Best Cartridge? Dear Raul,There is this German aphorism:'Gedanken sind Zollfrei' (the thoughts are duty free). Provided that theyare not loudly annunciated. We all have the same rights you know,the right to sleep under an bridge included.You already got many appr... | |
| Is There An "Absolute" Best Cartridge? Dear Dertonarm, You are very provocative and 'terrible' toargue with. So apart from the fun intended, the 'Sith' isa name without an bearer ( an non existent entity) so the question is how he can deal in anything ,except, of course in absolutes...... | |
| Is There An "Absolute" Best Cartridge? Dear Dgob, Glad to see that there are still persons interested in,eh, philosophy of science and logic. But Kantwas convinced that Aristotelian logic was 'perfect'. He was still 'captive' in 'subject-predicate' sentence form.But Frege was the first... |
