Hi, George
First off all I have to mention that I use Max 282 as my “second” arm. I mean my best stereo cartridge I use with 3012 as I feel that it has more interesting lover bass and upper bass then 282. The 282 has slightly hollow and slightly bor...

I recently picked up a MAX-282 tone arm and when setting it up with my test record I'm getting buzzing in the right channel during the bias test tracks. Changing the anti-skating setting has no audible effect. On other arms I have if I set the VTF to...

Hello Romy,I have been using the Max 282 with a Koetsu Urushi Platinum .2mV the last 6 months with excellent results to my ears. I have a few mundane questions that I could use some help with.I am using the fixed headshell "pipe." Have you found any ...

Since I posted at “My playback” that I’m using Micro Seiki MAX 282 tonearm I begun to receive emails asking about it’s User Manual. I sent out 5 of 6 of them to whoever asked - I do not know why people need it but if it was what they wanted. The funn...

What a lovely picture.Hi Romy,Many thanks for the valuable information. By fingerlift I mean that piece of metal sticking out about 1" (1/8" wide) at the extreme left end of the pipe. It is attached by two screws to the pipe. It looks easily removabl...

After more than 10 years of using the Micro Seiki MAX-282 tonearm I realized that if it is my second stereo arm then why I presume it shall have Second Sound? I have properly performing mono and stereo arms and I have a dally arm. The Daily arm is a ...

Yep, I fixed it. If does sound very good now, exactly how it has to be. It turns out that my suspicion were correct: my Micro’s fat cable has died on me. I absolutely assure you that no one would believe that a regular phono cable able to introd...

I today was abusing my damn Second arm, trying to get my bass back from it. It was not that it had no bass but it was very shallow and very different bass. It had a feeling that it was not from there, it was almost as some kind of time delay in b...

What really pisses me off is that my second arm/cartridge has a very strange effect that I did not see neither in this arm (Micro 282) not in this cartridge (Ortofon SPU Classic). I am taking about dynamic compression. In fact it is very seldom you c...

I have a mystery – my Second stereo arm stopped to sound right. My Second stereo arm is Micro MAX 282. I have been using it for years and I know it very well. It is not the “phenomenal arm”, it loose to my best arm and I know how, but it is an OK arm...

I use my SPU Mono in 282 Micro’s arm with AU wand that was specifically made for the SPU cartridges. I run it 3g, not-oil-damped into SU2,so, the SPU sees ~60Ohn. I tend a slightly overload the typical MC cartridges and run them at 60R-75R of thier “...

Guy,
I do not know. In my past I made an adapter to my Micro motor to play 78s and used contemporary 78 cartridge and 282 arm and off the shelf phonocorector. I would not call this setup as something that was good but it gave me some opportuni...

[quote user="guy sergeant"]If you use the plastic surround S2's from 500-5KHz won't you still have the bulge that concerned you at around 1.2K? I thought you suggested that the metal suspension units didn't have this bulge.Otherwise it seems a nice i...

Since Sound in new home is mostly set I kind lost interest to do anything “project-wise”. I play my music and I gradually tune ingredients to get the sonic mixture that I accustom to. Last two week I was slowly playing with my analog setup. Since...

What they say:Every audiophile music lover knows of the legendary sound of Koetsu phono cartridges from decades past. Those old enough to have experienced Sugano's Koetsus retain the memory of a musical experience unequaled. Few were privilegedd to o...

Here I would like to share some basic ideas about the skeleton of the horn. This is just a view from 50.000 feet but it will give some illustration what is brewing in my mind.
The one side of the triangular horn will be flat and will sit at le...
