| Denon DL-103 -- Was it a mistake? ......and for your phono preamp. Good luck with the Red. | |
| Upgrade Advice cart or phono pre amp I'm with Bill. Sell the MMF-5 and buy a turntable and cartridge in the $1000.00 to $1500.00 Range. Marantz TT-15 (Clearaudio made with the Clearaudio cartridge), Rega P25 or P5 with Dynavector 10X5 or AT150MLX, older VPI MKlll with nice arm and ca... | |
| What is "rich mans" DL-103? Ortofon SPU. Body, energy and musical impact galore. It is the 103 on steroids. | |
| nobody talks about BAT anymore? Wow, I never felt that I was engaging in bullying and sincerely appologize to all concerned. I will refrain from flippant answers to legitimate questions on this board in all of my future posts. | |
| Vintage Japanese Turntables CW, I thought that you might enjoy the eye candy of the direct-drive museum:http://de.geocities.com/bc1a69/museum_eng.htmlSome of the better Denon tables have the formentioned electromagnetic speed control mechanisms, such as the DP-6000. Anything... | |
| nobody talks about BAT anymore? My appologies if anyone that found my response offensive. Yes, it was meant to be humourous and sarcastic, but I did not mean to offend. Sometimes, especially with the written word, where no real inflection or facial gestures are possible, the lin... | |
| nobody talks about BAT anymore? Nobody talks about Kaypro computers and Donkey Kong either. | |
| Vintage Japanese Turntables 1) Usually not, the oval SME cutout usually overlays the smaller, round cutouts of other 9" arms, however your arm came with a mounting template with which you can verify this. Armboards are also usually pretty easy to fabricate if the manufacture... | |
| Any vinyl experts out there? You may have acoustic feedback. Without the platter moving or the motor on, put the stylus down on a record and increase the volume. If you hear howling, you have acoustic feedback and you will need to resite the turntable. | |
| Denon DL-103 -- Was it a mistake? That's a shame; did you get the 640P yet? | |
| Hadcock GH228 and Shelter 501 - do they mate well? Oops, that would be "manner", how come Audiogon took away the "edit post" button? Illiterates like me - or is it "I" - really needed that. | |
| Hadcock GH228 and Shelter 501 - do they mate well? I heard a Music Maker and it was a fabulous cartridge. Since you are now in contact with Bill, why not ask if he has a low mileage demo, he is also the Music Maker importer. Guy gets around. It hasn't helped his bedside manor though, LOL. | |
| Parasound C/BC Belt Drive Transport The short answer is probably "no where". The long one is that I believe that your transport was made my CEC and branded "Parasound". CEC does not have a US presence, but is still in business:http://www.cec-international.de/pages/s40.htmlSo either ... | |
| Hadcock GH228 and Shelter 501 - do they mate well? Ask the importer of the Hadcock, Bill Feil, he is a frequent poster here, user name audiofeil. He will give you the straight scoop. | |
| Ortofon SPU's outdated design? Wow, thanks Chris, that is a very interesting insight! |
