| Teres, redpoint or galibier turntable Hi Cmk. I am not eluding that you were disagreeing with Arthurs blog. English is not my first language and sometimes my postings do not reflect the meaning I intended. My apologies. I was commenting on the fact that coincidentally both you and Ar... | |
| Teres, redpoint or galibier turntable Hi Cmk. Somewhat of a coincidence that I read a similar response on Arthurs blog to your experience at the RMAF. Gcj123, I was considering three or the marques you mention, and had a similar budget. If you do have the time (I did not), I would su... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Hi Ketchup. Agreed. I think it is folly to believe cutting lathes have perfect speed stability. I came across this site where the sell cutting lathes. http://www.vinylrecorder.com/index-e.html. One of the tweaks they offer is a 3.8 kg platter to r... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Lewm, empirical research (i.e. observation) for something as subjective as audio presents a very weak argument. I think Ketchup brought up a very valid point.If we are to assume that physics tells us a platter will decelerate due to stylus drag, w... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Stylus drag real or myth?Some time ago I did an experiment to determine just what effect stylus drag would have on an LP. I used a DL103 set to 2.5 gram tracking weight and used a regular 120 gram LP on a cheap mat felt mat (I believe off one of... | |
| SET amp with solid state preamp Gcj123, you need to get speakers with very benign impedance curves to use with lower powered tube amp, especially one that is single ended. My speakers are rated at 88db/pm sensitive and I use a single ended tube amp rated at 12wpc. I have plenty ... | |
| Arm choices for Thorens TD 150 MKll AB Hi Marty, I posted yesterday but my post seemed to not make it.Some time ago I used a Mayware on a TD150 (or TD160?). I was using it back to back with a modified RB250 and to my ears the Mayware was head and shoulders better. It really seemed to w... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option +++ I was going to mention the hole in Pauly's economics +++Yep, not having a dealer network does save money. 100% correct. But who do you think pays for R&D? Who pays for the machine tools? Yep, you guessed it you do.Sunk costs such as R&am... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Hi TimI dont think a brick and mortar established dealer network is the way to go either. As you correctly point out, it takes significant investment. I doubt it will produce a significant enough increase in sales to cover the costs and even when... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Dan, it seems you have an issue because you perceive I dissed your idols. I give you my apologies but assure you any disrespect on my regard is limited to your imagination only. Asking a retailer to make a product accessible for audition is not di... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option +++ Now why would I take your comment the wrong way +++Perhaps because you react to my posts without giving it proper thought? My statement was not meant in any derogatory fashion, and I am somewhat perplexed at unkind your response. But I choose ... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Dan. I guess my response would be two fold. First, I don't need to hop on a plane to meet good people. I happen to know many that stay within ten minutes drive from me.Second, my manufacturer of choice allows me to evaluate the product of my choic... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option Hi CelloI have no idea what the wait period is, but I have read one post were a gent stated he waited almost 12 months. I do not know what the background is pertaining to that particular transaction, and concur that it could be an anomaly and not ... | |
| New Teres Direct Drive Motor Available as Option I must agree with Willster (to some extent)While Teres has by far the most liberal return policy I have seen, the long delay in largely negates it. Had I the opportunity to audition, I would considered Teres when I replaced my table earlier this y... | |
