I don't understand why people are using the flywheel with the same thread coming off the motor to go around both the turntable platter and the flywheel. I also don't get why the flywheel is supposed to be used with a slipping thread at all. To make...

Oh, David, come on! Can you for a second to stop to be a pretentious been counter and look at the picture from slightly more elevated perspective? I am glad that you do not worship the expensive parts, unique design, and precession of construction of...

[quote user="TheOptimist"]I've been reading these comments for years now, and it's getting pretty tired. So I think it's about time someone spoke up.
I've done some work with Mr. Walker, I know the guy, and most importantly, I've ACTUALLY HEAR...

Anyone who has more than a superficial experience with better turntables knows that speed stability is not the subject that civilized people shall even mention. Any turntables shall stabilize speed of disc rotation at the point that it is not au...

If Romy told me to buy a turntable I would buy it.To think someone would take the advice of Michael Fremer over Mr. Besnow boggles my mind.The above turntable has to be the most vulgar absurdity I have ever seen....

I usually do not do those “fetish trips” but here I think it might be educational for Western readers as it is slightly different. I got an email with a like to a clip that you might like. It is Russian-made turntable Korvet -038, from which I ...

It is very interesting to hear this idiot pontificate about

I mean the way how they call their turntable is absolutely irrelevant, they can call it antigravity bearing but it does not mean anything. They do state that the turntable has air-suspended tonearm; which is fine and common for liner arms. They howev...

Audio Note has released a turntable called the Ginga which costs 60 thousand US dollars in Japan. (if you google Audio Note Ginga images you will find it very easily).My first reaction was pure cynicism, as Audio Note does traditionally price its pro...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] It is incredibly rare that an audio makers can express pure and unadulterated interest in Sound, interest that is wider and then boundary of own product or own field. [/quote]I agree, I met maybe only 1 or 2 who really kne...

Hi,
I am an analogue mania so naturally I love turntable.
I have acquired a Microseiki SX-8000 several month before and found it had speed irregularity. I thought first, the motor might be the problem but soon found there were scratch sound on the...

I recorded the LPs (Bruckner7-TeDeum Concertgebouw/Haitink, Also Sprach Zarathustra Chicago/Reiner - 1954) to digital. Then I lowered the stylus on to the record, but did not have the turntable turning. I played the digital copy at a bit more than my...

It is always difficult objectively deal with tonearms. The tonearms is very difficult subject, performance of which might be severally masked by thousands associative parameters. However, the biggest problem is that it is imposable to talk with peopl...

The Ultimate turntable only needs to provide for one arm. The ultimate arm. Why compromise its performance with various inferior arm designs.
I'm not sure that high mass is necessarily a good thing. Yes it stores a large amount of kinetic ener...

Great minds think along the same lines. A couple of days ago, I was thinking of a fluid driven turntable platter. What I was thinking was to have a plinth with spiral grooves cut into it. The platter (perhaps with radial groove...

I would like to dedicate this thread to collection of the ideas and thoughts what might/should manifest an “Ultimate Turntable”. I know many of so-called “good” turntables and I REALLY appreciate none of them. Why an “ultimate turntable never was bui...

Hi,I will buy my second tonearm as an addition to the one (Alphason HR100S) I'm using. I didn't have the opportunity to listen and compare any of the good tonearms that is being reviewed as good (??) by the audio society and to be honest I don't have...

Hi N,I just use my turntable, arm and cartridge to measure the effects of vibrations. Don't turn the platter on, drop the cartridge into a groove and your phono corrector output will tell you everything that you need to know - as it would happen duri...

Recently, since I‘m doing some remodeling of my turntable, there was some noise on my site about Micro Seiki turntables. I really do not want to push my site toward to becoming one of the typical audio fetish sites but in context of this thread I wou...

I really enjoyed reading an ignorant rant by someone who has probably neither heard the Continuum turntable, nor who is willing to say anything substantive about its design, yet he's more than happy to mock me and the people who designed and built th...
