| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? mrubey, a comment from a long time hobbyist if I may.You mention an Analog Productions 45 album you purchased, "Someday My Prince Will Come". That may be a great reissue, I've not heard it so cannot comment. But I'll suggest to you the same as I... | |
| What is Technics thinking? Thanks Bill, I look forward to an owner's comparison. | |
| What is Technics thinking? "There will be no confusion." Sorry, I don't agree. I've read too many comments saying in effect that Technics simply raised the price of their DJ table to an unreasonable level. Those folks fail to realize the SL-1200 was designed as a consume... | |
| What is Technics thinking? paraneer, perhaps I was not clear. My issue was not just "really to do with the aesthetics".The point was that after apparently a significant effort in engineering upgrades, Technics failed to provide much differentiation by model number or appea... | |
| What is Technics thinking? Andy, maybe so. But weren't those priced around $600? Can the new one be a "sure thing" at $4,000?!? | |
| Does anyone run 2 or more turntables... lewm, "a coreless motor? I have developed a preference for the sound of those that do."So, does this suggest interest in the new Technics SL-1200GAE?http://www.sl1200gae.info/about | |
| Refurbish a Dynaco St70 mesch, congrats on your decision and being pleased with the results. Your initial question didn't receive unanimous support but pretty close to it.My first stereo was built around Dynakits back in the '60s, which included a ST-70. There were mus... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? chakster, in your 5/16 post you make reference to "armwands". However it sounds to me like you refer to armboards? To me an armwand is a single tonearm arm tube/headshell assembly, such as in the EPA-500 and other arm examples.Anyway, congrats o... | |
| Sanders magtech or odyssey kismet In the for what it's worth department -Last weekend I attended THE Show Newport and happened to hear both Sanders and Odyssey room systems.The Sanders was about what I'd heard from them before; detailed, articulate, balanced, a very musical presen... | |
| Cartridge Recommendation for Dual 1229 Stevecham, contact information for Wittsolutions? I Googled it but found nothing on cartridges. | |
| Solid state amp to replace my Audio Research Ref 150 amp shaq, I can't comment on your ARC amp but will say I'm surprised no one suggested the Parasound JC-1s. Could that be because they have been around so long and thus not the "latest and greatest"? Well, there is a reason for that longevity.Differe... | |
| Drying time after a VPI record cleaner? Mark, my VPI came with a small brush, like a miniature bottle brush. It has very stiff bristles and seems to be effective cleaning the pads on the vacuum tube. I use that every 2-3 records when cleaning several, depending on how dirty the records. | |
| Drying time after a VPI record cleaner? Mark, I suspect your vacuum tube is not set at the proper angle. I’ve had a 16.5 for several years and the only drying issue is when any cleaning fluid or rinse is splashed onto the label area beyond the end of the vacuum tube. When that happens I... | |
| Who remembers the Dahlquist DQ-10's? Yes, no secret the DQ-10 copied the exterior design of the Quad 57.Early versions of the DQ-10 were produced with the same driver array for both channels, a common practice at the time. A local dealer, Audio Directions, developed a few mods, incl... | |
| Tonearm mount on the plinth or on Pillar ? Chris, thanks for the update on your SP-10 Mk 2. Your idea to mount your arm on a separate pillar and then bolt the pillar to the base (plinth), same as for the motor unit, is similar to the direction I've moved. That is sort of a "middle ground... |
