Speed instability. The common issue with the sl-23 are corroded pots etc. i have cleaned everything thoroughly and added sewing machine oil etc etc.. nothing has helped except adding new oil to the spindle bearing. For a moment. I cant get the spindle out of the turntable and i have finished...

I took a lot of help from this page http://daveyw.edsstuff.org/vinyl/loading/

Too many earths??

The at440 is most commonly bright on a system, but that is because of the commonly incorrect loading. On Audio Technicas official site it says ”Load Capacitance[/b] : 100-200pF” for the cartridge and that is a total value of the load from preamp all the way to the cartridge. the reason why it...

get a used at440 or the new vm540ml, say goodbye to sibilance

yes I could certainly do that.. but It would be more relevant when I get a bigger TV to take up all the bench space. I think Im going to install some form of kill switch for the bluray and wii whenever I want it to be off since other than that my setup is dead quiet. but yes. its just never a...

Hi everybody! I just realised that my blu-ray player causes a really weird noise in the turntable connections. I disconnected the player and it went away. How should i solve this? Id like to have my turntable remained positioned next to the TV. should i connect the blu-ray to a different...

Hello! I am going to buy a new cartridge and riaa for a turntable I just got (technics sl-23a for 700sek, it currently has a om5e booring) rest of my system you can see in my signum im a bit allergic to igd, but i want a warm and analog sound so i was thinking Grado black and rega phono...

Yes of course I did. I did try to remove it as well but the humming increases

Myeah. I guess there isnt alot to do except to earth everything. It's an old house in sweden. as I mentioned there is an earthed outlet on second floor. Would I need to have all the extention cords to be grounded as well for it to function properly? Or it doesnt matter. Sorry I have almost no...

So I found out recently the cause of my turntable hum in my stereo. It's because I have an unearthed outlet. I have tried to connect it to an earthed outlet and manage to get rid of buzzing briefly. But for this I had to use 4 power strips to reach the earthed outlet upstairs. now my question...

It is definitely a step up. It would have been strange if it wouldn't I compared zensor 7 with the opticon 6 and the difference is day and night. although my speakers have a ribbon tweeter as well. I dont know how much of a difference it is without them

Yeah, I dont feel the need for a surround system, maybe in the future but this will be nice since I also stream tidal and spotify through hdmi chromecast.

But thats why sabbath needed more power right? Because of the four 8" elements on the opticon 8s? :) I was looking at the a-s1100 as well but then I would pair it with a cd-nt670 to stay in budget/functionality of the dac in it ,and I think that would be a worse solution since both the cd and...
