Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable?
Apparently the analog forum has become a status forum as opposed to what is stated. Notice the statements made by expensive sports cars.This might be a reflection of this society; not only do we worship wealth, but those with wealth expected to b...

mmporsche, Forums become quickly side tracked in addition to being littered with opinions of individuals who obviously have never owned nor heard any similarly priced analog setup. This thread has already become littered with too many "Ferrar...

Rushton, you didn't disappoint; no matter what the rest of the rig consists of, the source is the King. I've never heard anything in that ballpark, not even in the high end salons.I'm sure that table is in one of the Stereophile issues, I'll find...

Rushton, I'm sure I've seen that one in "Stereophile". Since I've got a good movie on pause, I'll complete my post later on. I was just about to throw the towel in on you.As far as I'm concerned you probably can't get any better.Talk back atcha ...

Rushton, mmporsche, did not state that 25K would be the point of diminishing returns, he said he had a budget of 25K.You stated that 25K would not be your point of diminishing returns, and included the OP. I have always wondered what would be suit... 
Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable?
Rushton, you stated that 25K would not be your point of diminishing returns, and neither would it be for the OP.Now I'm just sitting here with my buttered popcorn waiting for some examples of the kind of rig someone would chose, when 25K did not a...

Rushton, I was doing something unrelated to music or stereo, and it hit me, "Rushton said 25K was not the point of diminishing returns for him". What is the point where he feels comfortable, since 25K isn't even close.could you give me an idea of...

Audioman58, I would like more information on that; is it good enough for resell? Not that it matters a great deal. Nichicon Gold are some good Electrolytics. It was 10 years ago when I changed all my Electrolytics that weren't too big, to "Blac...

Jafant, I believe your fears have good foundation. It's nice to know someone else has discovered those ratings to be valid, at least in class "A". When I went on a mission to verify those ratings was sometime ago, it was when high end salons exi...

Randy, there was a guy begging me to come over and evaluate his system. Finally I found the time and went over; before the review, he pointed out a lot of "Class A components"; his rig looked like an add out of Stereophile. After listening for a...

The question was "What's the point of diminishing returns"? And then he mentions 25K; well it's long before you get to 25K for people with the bucks, who can see down the road. If the question had been what's the ultimate rig, that would have be...

Dlcockrum, I just happened to think of something funny; while my wife was always worried about other women then, now she laughs when I threaten to see other women.Life is strange that way.Enjoy the music.

Noromance, I did industrial soldering, including aerospace for a living. Although you're right in most cases, in this case, the component case is not big enough to accommodate these huge capacitors, and I will have to expand it.Although these cap...
