| ZYX Airy 3x/SB vs. Dynavector XV-1 or 1s Doug, Speedy and others have covered the salient points.Let me add, that you will not side step your problem by switching to the XV-1s. I love the Dynavectors, with the XV-1s (along with my trusty Denon 103R) being the only other cartridge I'd con... | |
| ZYX Universe - Unipivot or Dual Gimbal arm Hi Roger, Doug ...The fascinating revelation for me was the discovery of multiple null points (false nulls) which brought me no comfort in the least. I believe I described this in a recent thread (this one?). Failing instrumentation, we're left wi... | |
| ZYX Universe - Unipivot or Dual Gimbal arm Hi Larry (Cello), Doug, all ...Every time I'm around Frank, I learn/modify my knowledge base. About 6 months ago, I had a Lyra Parnassus in house. This cartridge has an extremely tall cantilever. I got to thinking about this (there you go again ..... | |
| ZYX Universe and Lyra Titan I think it's time for a group hug ...Some interesting statistics: this year, sales of new vinyl exceeded the combined sales of SACD and DVA.Did anyone attend the seminar at this year's Rocky Mountain Audiofest on the future of analog? I'd be inter... | |
| ZYX Universe and Lyra Titan A call for peace and an opportunity to learn from each other ...Like many of you, I grow tired of touchy personality issues on web forums. I'd love to see a fresh start with the slate being wiped clean. Perhaps I'm missing something here, and fran... | |

| ZYX Universe - Unipivot or Dual Gimbal arm Hi Larry,Was this a session where Frank set everything up? The reason I ask is that you can exercise in enormous amount of control in how much energy you release into the tonearm based on how tight the cartridge screws are. This can have a dramati... | |
| Rocky Mountain Audio Fest 2005 Yes, Triplanar will be in two rooms, I believe. The one I know about should be making outstanding sound - with my former collaborator's 'tables (Redpoint), accompanied with John Wolff's Classic Audio Reproductions speakers. I'm not certain about t... | |

| best turntable under $5k I need to make it very clear that the Hagerman Trumpet, along with the Artemis PH-1/PL-1 are the two best commercial phono stages I've heard to date. The differences between the two are ones of system matching and such.Because Jim sells his gear d... | |
| Rocky Mountain Audio Fest 2005 Hi Steve,The first day (Friday) is great for schmoozing. The systems are still settling in, and good listening is the exception as people re-evaluate and fine tune their setups. Toward the end of the day, you'll hear some good sound. Take advantag... | |
| Zyx R1000 Airy3 vs Universe To Sirspeedy ...If you get to the RMAF, forget any thoughts of a vicious loop on any of your topspin shots. At 5,000 feet, the ball flies out of control :-((OTOH, the high country is gorgeous at the end of September / early October - different fro... | |
