I spend my time/effort/money to get a good sound from computer or MacBook.my trial and error proved me that I could not attack CEC TL0-X by Computer Audio.I also lost my money 4500$ in ordering external PSU to Paul Hynes. Paul is not trusted and do n...

It's starting to look like an unspoken rule that a contemporary "TT manufacturer" is expected to offer a "package" that includes an arm, and many of these folks even offer "their own" cartridges, as well. It also looks like many of these "combin...

Stitch, I am not too familiar with the sound of contemporary TT and I am not necessary would discard them juts because they are contemporary. I still have that fantasy about some kind of flimsy, paper-made TT that for whatever reason do sound very go...

I think when we are taking about the today TT we do not mean inventions – there are no inventions that I see in mega-priced turntables. All that I see are small manufactures, very inefficient production, very little market for sale and distribution a...

[quote user="analog10"]Hello, this is my first post here - this is a wonderful web site, critical and fair - a lot of knowledge here and i consider you real connoiseurs - that's why i'm hoping to resolve my problem here.

1) Romy's file2) Mark's 2nd file3) Marks' 1st fileI agree with Romy's comments. Especially that his file sounds a lot more resolving - the "very fine micro-dynamics" that Romy talked about. I strongy suspect this is down to his ADC (having owned the ...

There are a few manufacturers out there, Minus-K, Halcyonics, Vibraplane...The Vibraplane is a good unit for the money, I have no problems with it and it does the job the way it should.Those Vibration units work different from construction and are ve...

VTF on all the Schroeders is adjusted by moving the counterweight behind the "bearing" back or forwards. This counterweight is fixed on the armtube by a screw. On the greater Schroeder arms there is also tiny screw on the backend of the armtube to do...

I never equated transient information with microdynamics nor did I say it was articulation. Microdynamics is not simply piano and macrodynamics is not forte. Transient (onset) noises are what give different instruments their timbral character. Of cou...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] I am certain that the depth of such an experience .. is very dependant on the system+room; whether something in the system can bring about a more crystalline state of mind… I will be very curious to see how this 7th chann...

Jessie was very right talking about therapeutic influence of audio projects.

A friend of mine asked my last night if I feel that PurePower’s Sound as good as a playback during those extremely seldom moments when electrify is good. It was a good question and I feel that it is worth to cover.
First off all I can not say about ...

I don't know why the Berning topic gets everyone so worked up. No need for another ZOTL screaming contest. Is this not a hobby where we explore many solutions? It is a difficult subject technically. I for sure can not speak about th...

where the pins go through the tube glassThanks for the tips, Romy. But I am not sure from your response if you now get that it IS the glass at the bottom of the tubes themselves that cracked. The cracks did not "run" up/break th...

I'ts not that I feel "someone else's would be more informative than Cogent". Rather, even though I know what I heard from the Cogent version, I cannot at this point say I understand how much and what part of what I heard is ...

Guy,
I do not know. In my past I made an adapter to my Micro motor to play 78s and used contemporary 78 cartridge and 282 arm and off the shelf phonocorector. I would not call this setup as something that was good but it gave me some opportuni...

Given that most commercially produced audio equipment is originally the work of engineers, and given that most of it doesn't perform as well as one would like then it is fair to say that engineers generally haven't succeeded in applying what they hav...

Romy, what do you mean by "the negative curving is longer to engage"? I picture a platter that has been machined to the negative trace of the LP face but without any means to "engage" the LP unless there are further stipultions, ...

Hi BE,we may not be in disagreement at all. Sandpaper finish is not necessarily absorptive. I was more referring to popular HOM-treating methods like foam or using softer materials to build or coat the horn.I still have my doubts about how a rough su...
