| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? Thanks, Tony. Very good artricle--especially explaining saliva is used as a cleaning solvent!!!This is from the link you provided:Various refinements on the elliptical stylus principle have been developed, and are well explained and illustrated in... | |
| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? Pressure equals force over surface area. I did not make that up, Audiofeil. It's simple physics. I just referred to record & stylus wear, not cartridge design & quality control parameters. DJ cartridges have spherical tips, too and DJ pres... | |
| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? Moving from your Basik to a Scout is a lateral move. That's why I wrote about Mr. Linn technician, Van Alstine & others who've installed outboard power supplies.I can describe the sound as being smooth, but it lacks detail in the treble and th... | |
| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? This one's for Doug Deacon: Them low output moving coils owe quite a lot of their performance to the MASSIVE bodies that absorb resonances. A Vinyl Asylum inmate from Belgium has just received one of my non-resonant, Caribbean Moca wood blocks. Th... | |
| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? The round and eliptical diamond tips on them Denons are a cost cutting measure to sell at particular price points. The customer records' life span is shortened because of this (and in no short measure with a round). I mean, you even have an 'audio... | |
| Analogue Synergy....Which is the best Cartridge? Two more recommending a round diamond tip! Shame shame... | |
| Who has Caps on their AC lines ??? Are we having a cold war here? Pun intended... | |

| Need an Entry Level Phono Preamp Smart move. You eliminate the purchase (and shipping costs) of a chassis, power supply, interconnects, power cord, etc. Everything stays in place inside a well designed, ruggedly built, quality preamp. As a plus, the sonic signature stays the same... | |
| Help with vinyl frustration? Remember, a LOT of moving coil cartridges suck in the tracking department. If you could get a hold of a Shure Era III, IV or V test record you could quantify your cartridge's trackability. They're a nice tool to have. Other test records have track... | |
| Need an Entry Level Phono Preamp If Bryston makes a phono board for your pre that would be the most sensible (and direct) way to go. With the money saved you can get a real good power cord for the pre, like the Absolute MKII (have it cryo'ed) and a nice set of cones (I use DH con... | |
| Has anyone heard the new Sistrum or Stage Stands? I'm sophisticated, Groucho... | |
| opinions on swan speakers I had Dan Wright modify my Swans M1's. Killer. | |
| Has anyone heard the new Sistrum or Stage Stands? huh huh??? Just kidding. Thank you for the reply. I wonder how much better this new design than the old ones?It's not going to beat my non resonant, Caribbean Moca wood boards and Goldmund cones combo. Never.*** |
