Just a few lines to the "Performance" of this piece of wood on strings for 7k $I listened to the Schroeder Reference + SQ and some custom made ones which were normally not available (Schroeder model blahblah with Valhalla cable etc.)(of course you ca...

Last week I spent a few hours at the scene of NY’s Stereophile Show – HE 2004: a half-day on Thursday and 2 hours on Friday. As many other audio-shows it had many semi-ugly colorations, however as any audio shows this zoo trip brought it’s own “inter...

Yesterday I listened to a turntable that fulfills many of the criteria you deem to be important. this was the Kuzma XL. It does have the provision for using two arms. I listened to it with both Kuzma's own Airline and the SMEV. It sounds very stable,...

[quote user="Wojtek"]  Stich , your own complains about aforementioned arms (Schroeder mostly)  was "no highs , no lows " . Pretty primitive way to judge a productfrom a sophisticated listener like yourself. Since you seem to have unlimited budget , ...

[quote user="jam"]I would agree that the RX-5000 has some advantage to the SX-8000 and I put the differences down to mainly the air bearing and construction of the platter which will cause softness and a lack of focus (some people may like this). T...

The Ultimate turntable only needs to provide for one arm. The ultimate arm. Why compromise its performance with various inferior arm designs. I'm not sure that high mass is necessarily a good thing.  Yes it stores a large amount of kinetic ener...

Yes we're creating the ultimate turntable so why not.''So can you imagine adding to a tonearm a function to catching the proximity from the center and dynamically reset the anti-scatting? How about automated tonearm’s vertical excursion to compens...
