| Garrard 60hz Strobed platter Do a sound quality check on both platters. Let them spin for 20 mins before testing. | |
| Floor-standing vs Book-shelf from upper line up? Or...you could go Duo and add a REL T5i sub or two if you needed more low end. | |
| Floor-standing vs Book-shelf from upper line up? If you buy the Duo, you'll always be wondering what the Trio could have brought. So, in a way, you may have to suffer your own curiosity and need for lower bass. Even if the overall last iota of quality is sacrificed. | |
| “Marks on the underside” Overstate blemishes and detail them in photos. Let the buyer decide and cover yourself. | |
| Floor-standing vs Book-shelf from upper line up? Stand mounted generally have better imaging while floor standing have more bass. The Duo appear to be the better model. So, quality over quantity. It's up to you after that. | |
| Rega Planar 3 : Heavily upgraded yet produces a sound that I don't like If you add a spacer to help with VTA, you'll raise the back of the arm making the cartridge sound more etched and brighter. | |
| Flat speaker sound/preamp the culprit?/external EQ needed? Well done russ69. Sometimes it’s the least obvious or simplest of errors.as for speaker placement, if that was the issue, wouldnt i hear it when i play the iphone too?Not necessarily if it was an acoustic feedback or turntable-based issue. | |
| Uninsulated bare copper wire for turntable ground OK? Sure. But is life that hard that you cannot procure a yard of wire?! | |
| Rega Planar 3 : Heavily upgraded yet produces a sound that I don't like Are you positive VTF and VTA are correct? | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @dayglow +1 Jane M. | |
| Should I use Speaker Spike / Isolation Base or Something? Depends. Lots of unknown variables. You can't go too wrong with spikes through the carpet into the wood floor. Paving slab on the carpet works too, especially with your plastic feet. | |
| Dirt cheap set-up Sound should fill out when the cartridge is run in. | |
| Garrard 60hz Strobed platter Just use the KeyStrobe. I believe the 60Hz platters weren’t made as well as the 50Hz ones. | |
| Garrard 60hz Strobed platter My question is, can I utilize a much easier to source 50hz strobed platterWhat platter do you have now? | |
| Flat speaker sound/preamp the culprit?/external EQ needed? Check your tracking weight. My guess is that the UTurn is picking up acoustic and situational feedback as others have stated. Try putting it on a paving slab. You could also add $30 Nobsound springs under the paving slab. |
