I want to move from Rega Planar 6 help me to pick a new turntable
I recently moved from a Rega P5 to a Technics SL-1200GEG-S because I was not able to get my Zyx cartridge working well with the Rega, despite of playing with VTA spacers, VTF (+ exchange of the CW with an heavier tungsten one) and AS (from none ot... 
Most beautiful turntable under $5k
Technics SL1200G. An easy set up, a VTA adjustment almost on the fly, removable headshell, stability in rotation speed, cover against dust and good looking. But overall, an excellent sound.   
Technics 1200G VS VPI Prime Signature
Since I moved my Zyx cartridge from my Rega P5 to the Technics 1200G, I am very happy. I don't know why  I wasn't able to to get good performance from the combination P5/Zyx (I tried everything: spacers, tungsten CT, thin or thick mat, etc...). ... 
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
Dears, This is now fixed: I installed the Zyx on my new SL1200G and adjust the VTA at +2, so 19mm for the 16.3mm of the cartridge height. That's more positive VTA. My dealer confirmed me that a higher positive VTA (2.7mm tail up) will not cause ... 
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
Hi Dears, Just FYI, I did several tests this evening: I tested the ZPhono, a Cambridge 640P vs the STR Phono input. I also adjusted the charge from 100ohms up to 1100ohms. I also increased the cable length. That's exactly identical, except some... 
Anthem getting into two channel with new STR pre-amp-- anyone heard it?
Hi Dears, I recently changed my Goldring Eroica with a Zyx Ultimate. I have a STR preamp and I use the MC phono input. When I started with Zyx (convert mode) I immediately remarked that the sound was "poor" (dark, dead) compare to the Eroica. I... 
Technics 1200G VS VPI Prime Signature
Hi Dears, Is a Zyx Ultimate cartridge a good match with the 1200G? The compliance is 12×10-6cm/dyne but no frequency is mentioned. As it's a Japanese manufacturing, I assume it's given at 100Hz,  so roughly 20×10-6cm/dyne at 10Hz. Will not be ch... 
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
Dear rauliruegas, You are right the RIAA digital alternative is better than the analogic one on my STR, certainly because the signal is properly amplified before digitalization and digital filtering. I have already engaged claims to the supplier... 
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
Dear mijostyn, In fact this is my fist cartridge that gives me this dead sound. With my Goldring Eroica, except for the centered sound stage, I used to have almost no difference between CD (or streaming) and my records. The Zyx sound stage is p... 
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
Thanks lewm, I have only 1° of azimuth misalignment, so I will leave it as it is and as you said it concerns only very high frequencies and 3dB difference is certainly not audible. I am going to have a closer look at the AS because it may need a b... 
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
I forgot to reply about the Zyx model: It's the Ultimate 100/SB (9g). Thanks,  
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
Many thanks rauliruegas and jcarr, I used the Hi-fi News test record and I have ordered another test record (Clearaudio) to double check everything. I will follow your advices and keep the Forum posted. Cheers,   
Why do these Zyx Fuji and Airy 3 have such a dark sound?
Hi Lewm, Yes, I have measured the Nagaoka on the second turntable and my former Golring, they are both flat except frequencies above 10KHz on the Nagaoka that start to decrease. I also read the whole topic thread and some sore from the Web. I d...
