ZYX Universe and Lyra Titan
Hi guys,I just got back from Colorado, so please excuse the late response to retroinferno's post.I don't recall ever stating that the ZYX Universe is "one of the two best cartridges in the world". If I ever did, there shurely must have been too mu... 
Anybody familiar with Davincini tonearms?

Best MC cartridge for a nott/schroder - under 2k
Hi Simon74, hello Aronsss!Not knowing which phonostage you will be using makes it difficult to recommend a cartridge, not to mention that it would be helpful to know how you would characterize the current sound of your system(as it sounds in your ... 
Zyx R1000 Airy3 vs Universe
Hi sirspeedy,Cello is indeed one of the kindest and generous people I ever had the pleasure meeting. I`ll see what can be done to enhance your Thanksgiving visit...Sorry you had to cancel your trip, but much better to remain grounded than falling ... 
Zyx R1000 Airy3 vs Universe
Hi sirspeedy,My name is spelled Schröder, but I won't hold it against you if you use a spelling that, when read, sounds close to how my name is pronounced in german... ;-)Cheerio,Frank 
Schroeder arms: order of merit?
Hi sirspeedy,I like you too, but since you've "stirred the pot" a little steam is to be expected ... ;-).As long as our systems keep us coming back to listen to more music, they do what they're supposed to do. That inkling of a difference, be it e... 
Schroeder arms: order of merit?
Dear Mr. Morris,The last thing I enjoy is spending time in front of a computer screen. 95% of my replies deal with a technical question, if my answers do not interest you, skip'em! I'm still as much of an audio enthusiast as I was before I went "p... 
Schroeder arms: order of merit?
Hello sirspeedy,The Graham 2.2 is an excellent arm, no doubt. Like all other top flight tonearms, it requires meticulous care in setup and I can tell that you have spent alot of time squeezing the last bit of performance out of it. But, other peop... 
The Schroeder has arrived
Hi everyone,A few additional thoughts on the issue of an "ideal" fres of the arm/cart combo. I second Rauls observation, that even "non-textbook" combinations can give stunning results. It is in the often found case that the table/arm/cart is exit... 
The Schroeder has arrived
Hi guys,Recently I had the opportunity to measure f-res of a TemperV in a 14gr. Tigerwood armwand and it came out to be 10,5Hz. Just goes to show you that published specs don't always correlate with actual measurements, just as , for quite some ti...

Dear Raul,Your question regarding the choice of arm(wand) material is valid and I'll see if I can address the issue to your satisfaction. Low frequency reproduction is quite strongly linked to the quality of the rendition of upper harmonics. This ... 
The Schroeder has arrived
Hello Flyingred, hi Raul,As this might be of interest to you and other Schröder owners, I'd like to give a little advice on how to tighten up the bass and/or add bottom end "authority". I gladly agree that, if not perfectly adjusted("tweaked"), ba... 
Clearaudio v. Teres
Dear sirspeedy,Thanks for pulling out the fire extinguisher(and aiming it at my face too), I should have mentioned you as another honorable member of this forum(and I mean it).I'll go for some Burgundy a little later...Best,Frank 
Clearaudio v. Teres
Hello Thomas,I will gladly explain why your post upset me.It was triggerered by(quote):"Ahem Larry, say "Hi" to Frank the next time, and I still think, his arm is overpriced. But maybe not for everyone"It is the "Ahem" that, to me, implies that I ... 
Clearaudio v. Teres
Hello Thomas,I thought about ignoring this last post of yours, but since you have indirectly accused at least several VERY honorable members of this for the most part well meaning and kind group of unduly promoting Teres decks and my tonearms, let...
