| Tannoy Micro TM55DD turntable @lewm That's interesting - I assumed from the appearance, good thing I included the DD5E - I see there's a manual for the DD5E on vinyl engine - so hopefully you can download from there. | |
| The Love of Turntables and The Organization Of An Audio Room A bit crowded. The three TT's look great. Pretty sure if you only had two, you would hanker for another. I've managed to cull mine down to 2 in the system and a project/spare. As far as the Dynavector's go, I've had quite a few over the yea... | |
| Tannoy Micro TM55DD turntable @lewm It looks like a nice deck, wasn't cheap new. No phono. Definitely worth restoring - mid century stuff is going through the roof, not with audiophiles, with MCM enthusiasts. Saw one with a Pickering 3000 somewhere. | |
| Tannoy Micro TM55DD turntable @lewm It is a Micro Seiki Solid-5 sometimes called Micro Seiki DD-5E. There's plenty of info on line - here's a manual For more turntable manuals and setup information Son-passion https://son-passion.com › ... PDF MICRO SOLID-... | |
| Battle of the phone pres for my system. @letch I think you have missed a trick here. Your Musical Fidelity A1 has a Tape Out ( for recording ) and Tape Input. The A1 also has a Tape Monitor switch on the front panel. If you connect Tape Out to the input of the Zrock3, and the output... | |
| Can a Nagaoka MP500 be converted to an MP700? @lewm From an actual user of the MP700 Only a few days of listening in (on a Technics 1210G, VTF 1.4, VTA 0) but it's immediately obvious that this is not the MP-500: far greater resolution and extension, more neutral than warm, bigger soundst... | |
| Can a Nagaoka MP500 be converted to an MP700? Interesting how a lot of folk on this forum are able to make a definitive statements on something they’ve never heard. I guess when you are spending someone else’s money, it’s easy to throw out anything that comes into your head. The 700 is radic... | |
| Should I use an external Phono Preamp If you want to stay with McIntosh, their MP100 is very nice and should be a noticeable step up in performance from your in-built phono. Complete and utter nonsense - the phono in the c12000 is far superior to the mid price stand alone MP100 ph... | |
| Upgrade My Denon DP80 Tonearm @laaudionut If you are looking for a new tonearm you need to be aware that many vintage and some new arms do not have offset vertical bearings. That is the vertical bearings do not align with the headshell offset. This means that when VTA is ad... | |
| Origin Live Alliance tonearm @dcaudio Of the three arms you listed, in my view the Audiomods would be the best choice. I have set one up on my old Platine Verdier and it is excellent, well up with the much more expensive arms I previously had on this TT. One thing to be a... | |
| tonearm issue @thejeenyus54 Could you explain what was done when the arm was serviced. Was it rewired ? A good test is to balance the arm/cartridge to zero, and set the antiskate to 0, so the arm is floating, and then you can see straight away if the arm has... | |
| Looking for help with a Benz SL low output cartridge @dpm2340 Nobody has asked the obvious question - what turntable are you using. If you are using the Technics SLQ3 in your system page, then you would make the most gains by upgrading your turntable before you do anything else. A better turntab... | |
| Turntable Right Channel Dropping Out; Grounding Cartridge Body Brings It Back @oldrooney Great that you have found a solution. The interesting thing with TT grounds is that with most vintage turntables the TT chassis ground is connected to the tonearm ground and taken to phono grounding post. Now my view is if you are r... | |
| Did Koetsu Quality Decline with New Ownership what about my original question on Quality? Nobody will know until they hit the market, and we get feedback from owners. Dealers opinions are unreliable - they usually have a vested interest one way or the other. | |
| Did Koetsu Quality Decline with New Ownership $8K for a Rosewood Sig (non-platinum) :( I got a brand new Coralstone Platinum for $4800 circa 2018. Of course , you've got to support those Californian taxes. It's a public service. I recall Air Tight originally 2K 4K post review in The A... |
