| Emerald Physics Loudspeakers I own a pair of EP 4.7. They are very enjoyable and I think the last pair of speakers I’ll ever buy. If you are willing to learn how to measure room response and use room correction software like REW. Learn how to use and adjust a DSP unit like th... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Nandric go play a record or something your nitpicking gets old. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul, I only have a few hours listening time with the 2000z. So I can’t say a whole lot about it other than it’s a fine performer but at this point couldn’t say if it’s as good as the 4000DIII. Also, I bought an Empire edr .9 copy from turntabl... | |
| Tekton tweeter design I noticed “problems” with the vertical dispersion of this tweeter array. The highs seemed to change a lot with small changes in listening position height. No big deal I guess, just something I noticed with the impact monitors I owned. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, I’m very impressed with the AT-1100 tonearm, glad you recommended it. Precision quality and impressive engineering. I purchased a spare straight arm pipe and also an S shaped arm pipe with the W-3 heavy counterweight. It’s in the same league... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, my 2000Z with original packaging came with a plastic piece to slide over the clip for exact centering. I’ve seen 4000d models with the extra part also. I might try it when I mount the 2000z to the AT 1100. Frogman, Your system and personal p... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The Gold version uses a black solid metal mount vs the clip style mount. The original 4000D models use a thinner plain tapered aluminum cantilever and I believe the earliest versions were true nude diamonds. The model number is marked on the botto... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The Empire 4000DIII was always one of my favorites. The lesser performance Gold model was my first experience. The oldest originals are better, if you can find a good one. Original styli are almost impossible to find, so that’s a bummer. | |
| Technics turntable inquiry about SL 1200 MK ll for DJ or home use? They made 1200 GAE versions. I guess there’s a few people trying to resell them for a huge profit. Sorta like the discontinued OPPO UDP-205 4K player. | |
| Technics turntable inquiry about SL 1200 MK ll for DJ or home use? Anybody that pays $9000.00 for the GAE version is getting robbed. It’s Basically the same thing as the G version in performance, but slightly more fancy limited edition. I owned the GAE version when it cost less than $5000.00. Resold it because it... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul, yes I did purchase an Audio Technica AT 1100. I’ve read very good opinions on its performance with the higher compliance cartridges. It looks to be very well engineered compared to most of the “standard” type tonearms. It iwill be interes... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, I’ll keep a look out for Audio Technica AT-1100. Unfortunately the Japanese seller doesn’t include the cable and doesn’t negotiate his pricing. There’s one on eBay Australia in excellent condition, but this guy won’t ship to USA. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, I plan to keep the stylus I bought from you. If you didn’t inspect it assuming since it was NOS there wouldn’t be any issues, I understand. I’ll use it either without the guard or install the guard off my old stylus. Another tonearm questio... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul it isn’t a little loose it’s broken loose. The cantilever isn’t that bad, but its slanted. I always check things before I sell and ship them and these issues could of been easily identified and explained to the potential buyer. I don’t know h... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I know I’ll never buy anything from Raul again. He sold me a “NOS” stylus for my Empire 1000ze/x. Same exact type I received from Bluz Bros except in worse condition. Slightly slanted cantilever and the guard is fked up, is loose and Won’t stay l... |
