| Fi Preamps Hi GentsI have the copy of Art's reveiw of the Fi pre, but would like some more feedback from nonreveiwer types. Not that I do not respect Art's opinion, but He is the only one that has ever really said anything about the Fi pre.I have spoken to D... | |
| ZYX Universe and Lyra Titan Hi KhaI think Mr.Schroeder likes to "watch from the sideline" about what others are writing about the arm he makes because he knows them best. Like a parent looking out for his kids. I was not at the show but having spoken the Mr.Schroeder he did ... | |
| ZYX Universe and Lyra Titan Hi KhaI think if you call either Frank Schroeder or Chris Brady they will tell you what was wrong with that room. It is certainly not a true reflection of either of those gent's products.Paul | |
| Everyone whose Merlins... HI OneprofPlease tell us where you are using the Cerious and how it differs from Stereovox.I have the VSM-SE's and just got my BAM back from Merlin as well. A worth while upgrade.Paul | |
| Any thoughts on the Avid Acutus? HelloI think it is more than a lateral move as the Acutus is a much better table and you are also improving your Triplanar a couple of generations.I would change the table and arm but keep your cart and you will notice the differences.Moves like t... | |
| Most beautifull turntables today.... HiFrank the table looks fine with all that fine Lamm gear we have. It sounds great and when people come over they think it cost us much less than it did.With my Tom Evans stuff in the perpex boxes people think it is a budget system. | |
| SME 20/2A set up Hello IanWelcome to the SME club. The arm does hang over the edge like you describe. The footprint was designed to be small for more ridgity.Paul | |
| Has anyone had experience with the Schroeder Arm Hi FrankThanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to inform and entertain all of us on these anolog subjects.Paul Costa | |
| Has anyone had experience with the Schroeder Arm Hi FrankThe arm is the latest Tri-planar to be mounted on a SME 30. I gave the machinist a Graham armboard to copy but without the large bore for the din to pass through. The SME armboard has a fibre type damping material but the Graham has lead f... | |
| Has anyone had experience with the Schroeder Arm Dear FrankIf you could quickly answer a question for me I would greatly appreciate it.I am having a local machinist make me an armboard for a new tonearm. The armboard I have is brass. What do you think would happen to the sound it I changed in to... | |
| motor replacement dilema HiYou may want to contact some of the boys from Teres, Galiber or Redpoint. They sell battery powered outboard motors that you can dial in to the correct speed. All those table have high mass platters and use similiar motors.Paul | |
| Dynavector PHA-200 Head Amp. HiFor you to use the Dynavector properly it should be used with a 47K ohm load for the Head-amp. It sould work great on the MM side of your Lamm. I used one with a Hovland HP-100 and it was a big improvement over their coils. If you are interested... | |
| Is this why my analog rig isn't so hot? Dear GeorgeAs Raul has stated ans so have I your problem is the internal impedance or the Glider. Regardless of Basis being an overly warm sounding table the Glider is not short on high frequency extension. An open bodied cart like that has less m... | |
| Is this why my analog rig isn't so hot? Hello GeorgeThe problem is not that you need a better cart but one with a lower internal impedance. All the Benz carts have an impedance around 30 Ohms and The 47 Labs wants to see carts with lower impedance, around 10 Ohms on down for their "stan... | |
| Dynavector Cartridge Load 100ohms or 47k ohms? Anyone I know who used a Dynavector XV-1 usually loaded the cart down around 100 Ohms. Dynavector sells a Step-up and the only loading they provide with it is 4-7 and 30-40 ohms settings, so I think they want theirs loaded at that.But I am sure yo... |
