3 New UBER Decks - Is this Turntable's SwanSong? 🦢
Noromance,it is a separate building too, everything isolated from the rest of the house. See: some 15 years agobestE. 
3 New UBER Decks - Is this Turntable's SwanSong? 🦢
Dear all,Mikey is the only one being able to compare all that fancy TTs. Regarding prices it is a never ending story. Maybe I should come up with a million dollar baby…Why not consuming Mikey´s thoughts, it gives information and discussion opportu... 
Inner tracks vs outer tracks
The question was and is: are the differences between outside and inside tracks on a LP?the answer is yes. Some like millercarbon do not see this as a problem, they are happy with this situation. Others like me have solved the issue by using the UN... 
Inner tracks vs outer tracks
Dear Raul,the MF article is 6 years old.Wally tried to determine UNI-DIN in the vinyl-engine calculator and tried to compare it with the stipulation of Loefgren. It is not only far away from reality, I guess Wally did not understand UNI-DIN (same ...

Physically it is the best way what Nandric, Lewm, and audioquest4life experience. Nevertheless I am curious if electronic measurements do mirror our listening findings.bestE. 
The Palladian-A step beyond
Hi Folkfreak,we got another Titan-tonearm, the Axiom 12 Titan Grand Complication. I reported about it on my site. And, yes Titan got some listenable advantages.bestE. 
Azimuth 2020
I guess I will find out about the two tools, perfectly manufactured and aligned and do report about my findings.bestE. 
Inner tracks vs outer tracks
Almart1,a linear tracking arm like the Kuzma Airline or the Eminent Technology 2 will help to solve your problems.another approach is the UNIdin curve you get when buying a Smarttractor. This geometrical solution solves your problem much better th... 
Azimuth 2020
Very interesting discussion. BTW there is a new tool on the market, built by Sperling, the German Phono builder: PDM-1 by Sperling Audio. Looks much more serious than the Fozgometer. I have no experience with it.usually I prefer adjusting Azimuth ... 
Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive
Loosecannon,do not understand what your are saying, why more mechanical noise by using a passive flywheel? Can you explain?idler wheel is a great technology but not easy to build and implement. It is much easier to build a „very simple design like... 
Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive
Lewm,you are right. 1 motor + passive flywheel on opposite side to nullify any side forces on the bearing. As I do with my original Micro Seiki flywheel. In case of the two motors you need to have an intelligent adjustment incorporated in the moto... 
Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive
looscannon,It is a proofed hypothesis AND simple mathematics.just imagine you have a vector from only one side and then you need to compare it with two vectors from two sides, ideally - if you check properly. The distinctions of the two vectors sh... 
Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive
I have to put a word on belt driven tables. The biggest mistake in my eyes is that most TT-builders only use a one sided configuration regarding the motor issue. You need to have at least two motors on both sides to counterbalance the drift of the... 
Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive
Spiritofmusic,very true. It depends on the mastering and which kind of format you are using. In my case they took the original tape, mastered it with the JVC mastering process and put it on SMH disc. Much better than the original vinyl pressing.Th... 
Direct Drive vs. Idler Drive vs. Belt drive
As you know me I am a lover of Vinyl, at least owning 8 turntables..I just have compared the 1971 Whisbone Ash -Argus UK pressing with the SMH Japanese Platinum CD pressing. On my dCS chain, including an atomic time module, the CD is winning the c...
