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...

When companies begin to produce crap (most of the today arms) then it is the job of various marketing whores, like Michael Fremer and the similar, to invert a theory that would justify the poor sonic results or to explain to the deaf audio-cretins ou...

It might not be necessarily the new wire. With analog there are other billion reasons why it might not sound as it should. Still, I personally can’t stay listening “new” wire with MC cartridges. If you recently futzed with the arm wire then you...

Romy, I get your point that it seems like the best and most likely application of your evaluation ideas would be exactly the “high-end” designers and manufacturers we are met to disparage. And this should be particularly true in the case of the...

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...

Starboy,
looking at your reply in the Denon-103 thread, and considering that you are from UK, I conclude that you are well-familiar with Ortofones. Can you tell me more about them?
I never had them personally, I had in past a inexpensive Ortofone ...

[quote user="Thorsten"] I did use the term "crappy" in the connection with the tonearm in an ironic sense. Have you lived so long among US Americans you lost your sense of irony? Also, i do not suggest crappy Phonostages, merely ones with low input c...

Folks, This thread caught my attention, because here Romy waxes lyrically about the failings of the Denon Cartridges. Now I only consider ONE Denon worth bothering, the ORIGINAL 103, it is often inaccuratly called 103C. It has a medium compliance (ar...

Who know anything about this needle?I am playing now this CG-25 - my new Ortofon replacement. This new cartridge is turn out to be “MONO CG 25 Di”. It looks and feel completely different and this CG-25 is what I called the TRUE mono cartridge. I...

After going through the anal pains of the Image Gallery upload (it is sohuge now that my browser slows down 10000x times loading it and it ocasionally kicksmy router out of this world; can we do something about it?), here are some picsof my assault o...

[quote user="Gibraltar"] Not sure what you're suggesting here. Are you saying that I should be able to hear some channel imbalance from the surface noise if the anti-skate is not working? I did try removing the arm tube then turning the anti-skate di...

The lower bass configuration in my room is a bit interesting below is the bass diagram (under 50Hz)
As you can see the allocation of hot bass sports is superbly favorable in the room. There is pretty much no bass anywhere in the ...

Rakesh,
I think no one sane would feel that a better tonearm imposable. Anything is possible “better” but it is not the point. In my view, the point of selection an audio elements for own playback is not to find what is abstractedly “better” ...

As the last few days I dealt with final idiosyncrasy of my lower bass it was the last stoke of brash at the canvas of my audio desires. The results I am getting the last month I think let me to close my book on “design” aspect of my playback. I t...

The people who use a single driver speaker believe the while their driver move back and forth for it also radiates a problem-free MF and HF. Near the same people believe that if an amp has capacitors with precious metals foil then it not only do ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]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 pr...

I am a Mac user with Safari and Firefox- I can click in the knowledge tree on the links, but nothing goes anywhere. The table of contents are not even showing as a link. Looking at the source, I don't understand why this doesn't work: <tr>

I got a number emails informing that I am fool and that skating
force is so called because it causes the tonearm to push over the record from
the outside to the inside. I went online and looks at all imaginary references.
Yes, you are right that i...

I found very nice solution for my TT light. What I discovered is that I do not like those light and flimsy lights that I have tried but I like the regular heavy bench light fixture. In addition they are very easy to position to light up the TT u...

[quote user="mem916"]Hi Romy,
Yes I would love to hear the same segment from your analog setup for comparison. I think it would be very interesting even though there are so many variables that it probably doesn't tell me much in an absolute ...

I disagree with many concussions and methods that those guys use but still I appreciate that people took the task and tied to attach is as good as they know of:

The last couple days, having some controversy with Allnic’s preamp , made me to go few times to Allnic web site. In here I was reading the information about Allnic Verito MC Phono Cartridge.

Today was a good day in The Loudspeaker Land. I’ve been
using The Loudspeakers to do some targeted listening, with excellent results. I
already mentioned at the start of this thread that I had lost my
cartridge/tonearm synergy a while ago, and...

I have told in this thread that it took me many years to
get the best from the MC3000II/T3000 combo, and I have shared my findings that
random tracking parameters result in random Sound, and only optimal adjustment
results in optimal Sound. Wh...

Hi everyone,
As I said, I never intended to be the advocate of the devil. Now that this thread seemed to have resolved that the Shroder tonearm is either over-hyped, or at any rate that its manufacturer is beneath contempt because of his asso...

Writing anything on this site is akin to playing Russian roulette, which is a real shame as I find Romy's website generally very informative and a fascinating read, although my limited exposure to horn loudspeakers suggests that they might not be...

Perrew,
LCR is not active at all; it is the very same passive EQ as your RC? I think you a bit confused with terminology. The main logical explanation (there are many of them) is that capacitive filtration is very bad one and need to be minimi...
