Tables That Feature Bearing Friction
A flywheel can very well create problems if not done the right way.It is only suitable to motors featuring a solid axis shaft and a very good and rigid bearing. The flywheel - if done the right way - add considerable amont of inertia to the motor ... 
Tables That Feature Bearing Friction
The only turntable so far which did it right (i.e. - correct application of "friction" to stabilize movement AND to provide additional damping to the platter) is/was the old venerable Platine Verdier in its original form (pre-1992) of bearing (wit... 
The Perfect Tonearm Design.
Dear Dgad, 1) yes - or an adjustable/moveable weight on the armtube to modify the effective moving mass.2) if a damping is needed, you automatically have a cartridge/tonearm missmatching. The damping is needed only when a) the resonance frequency ... 
Effective Arm Mass: What's the right way to guess?
Dear T_bone, if you have the resonance frequency with a given cartridge and know its compliance this formula will lead you to the effective mass:F(r) = 1000 / 2 x P x ((M(t) + M(c)) x compliance)F(r) = resonance frequencyP = Phi = 3,1482M(t) = mas... 
Effective Arm Mass: What's the right way to guess?
Dear T_bone, there is a formula to calculate the unknown effective mass of a given toneram, but it only works if you have the known effective mass of a reference tonearm and do know the resonance frequency of both tonearms with a given cartridge.I... 
Micro Seiki MAX 282 Arm
Dear Syntax, how many pictures do you want....... many at hand (and an in-deepth test report on teh whole MAX-282 tonearm-system in german).I will put a MAX-282 into service on my turntable again in late may.I will mate it with the Takeda...
