| Phono preamp tube rolling. Mulveling I figured the last tube was a cathode follower or how could you get away with a 12 ax7 output impedance into the next stage. Well you and Lewm at least helped him out with there is a huge difference between 12au7 and 12ax7. The ... | |
| Phono preamp tube rolling. SurfmuzLooking at the manual again it looks like the 12au7 position is the position which you can sub the tubes. Which seems odd , but you tried it with 12ax7 and know , 1st hand , it not for your system.Enjoy the rideTom | |
| Phono preamp tube rolling. Lewm I should proof read more. Grammar has never interested me but you got the drift. I have done lots of tube rolling and changing of tubes in the years. Your system is revealing enough that if you rolled you could hear the difference... | |
| Phono preamp tube rolling. Lewm say it isn't so. You really believe we are dealing with a pyseabo here. Of course without knowing what OP thinks is a upgrade is, how could one even begin. We also do not know what tubes he is using, brand and type.Enjoy the rideTom | |

| Integrityhifi TRU-GLIDER Pendulum Tonearm Mijostyn please tell me what type of expensive machine is required to bore a hole to fit a ball bearing. Also with all your machining background, would you use a inference fit or maybe slip with locite for abec bearings. On the physics side ... | |
| Critical oppositions made using inadequate equipment. Maybe the OP can tell us about plants. I am still confused on what is non relevant equipment. And his goals and the moral of the story etc... The only thing I can conclude from the facts presented in evidence is he and his friend like a dif... | |

| Critical oppositions made using inadequate equipment. So we are back to what do you want from your music. There is no one size fits all speaker. If I wanted to light up a big room with rock and roll, quads and book shelf speakers are not where I would start. You sound like bass is a big de... | |
| Critical oppositions made using inadequate equipment. "Maybe even wrong understanding." The biggest issue I see with the out spoken people is there lack of experience with live real music. They always fall back on detail and pump up highs. They use the terms air around instrument , black backg... | |

| The Miller Carbon Story Lewm I thought we where supposed to be going for what real music sounds like. I have played the trumpet in cars, trucks, in doors/ outdoors , hotel rooms, concert halls, even in the bath tub. Yes each place it sounds a little different, but ... | |
| Sota Eclipse packages for VPI tables. Lewm is right get the road runner. I can not use it on my controller but being able to see 33.333 move in .001 in the best. If the sota unit will take the feed back and do the slow correction that is icing on the cake. I would not be without on... | |
| Teres Audio motor help! Lewm I am pretty sure that redpoint and galiber never used Teres motor controllers. I was at Peter's house when redpoint 1st started. He was changing the speed with a knob. Can not remember if they where using Maxon motors or not. For the OP... |
