[quote user="hagtech"] Then there was the Stereophile writer we had dinner with who thought Wilson was the top of the heap [/quote]
….and I would agree. With all Wilsons limitations I sincerely feel that the big Wilson are the most interesting direc...

I don't know how many coils it has. The XV-1 is their flagship product and costs a bundle, probably $3k to $5k. Everyone I spoke to guessed the splendidness is due to the shape of the diamond (I believe they merely say "line-contact"...

Well, it might be some kind of misunderstanding… The XV-1 was their flagship product in end of the 90s and it cost I believe $1.6K-$1.8K retail. The reasons why I know it certainly because I had a few quite credible people at that time who stro...

This is my first post here, so bear with me if my set-up isn't as sophisticated as yours.More and more as of late I started to notice that records exhibit surface noise that was less pronounced [or absent] before. I bought this cartridge 5.5 years ag...

Ah, the current source!! Serge, you must be right. Ironically I did hear about this method of extracting cartridge signal by Dynavector when I used tier 507 arms but I forgot about it. If am not mistaken the Dynavector is not a phonostage by just vol...

|
Well, I think it may be something like Tominari of Dynavector used to do with his Phono stage a while ago. He considered the cartridge as a current source which sorts of 'unloads' it. http://www.dynavector.com/products/amp/e_pha200.html...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"] I really like my Shelter 901, but would like something which gives me a little more of the sound that i'm getting from my tuner. What do I mean by that, more realistic space/tone perhaps. [/quote]

I've had an RX-5000 for a few months now. I've read yours and other comments with great interest. I'm a long time high end dealer who is losing his vision and is mostly retired. I've known this particular turntable for about 35 years since it belo...

The New Jersey Symphony purchased a number of high priced instruments - Strads, Guanaris, etc. in what they called "The Golden Collection". They paid way too much money for the collection, but thought that the better sound and the "Mystique" of...

Your spiel on the Dynavector arm ties back to another of your recent posts and it reminds me that few manufacturers of any genre really wind up caring about performance, per se, perhaps because there are so many other things to think about when intro...

That would certainly be an interesting driver.a couple of the dynavector cartridges have coils around the polepiece apparently to 'soften' the circuit, this kind of goes someway to explaining the FC sound but other times like the little session i men...

I'm about 60 miles away in Rhode Island, obviously we don't have any dealers here; Boston seems the best bet. Do you know of any dealers in Boston who carry the Dynavector line?...

I'm shopping for a Dynavector DV-20X High Output MC. So far I've only been quoted $580 - 20% trade-in for my existing DV-10X5 cartridge = $460. But if I could get it cheaper, especially much cheaper, from an over-seas source - I'm definitely int...

[quote user="morricab"] Interesting test you have conducted. Were the responses mostly unflat near the frequency extremes or was there variations even in the midrange? The reason I ask is because if you look at most of the published curve...

Hi, I am new here and would like to say hi.I am a owner of an ET SU-1 and would like to know what phono stage would go best with it. Would a Lamm LP2 be a good match?Will be using a Dynavector XV1s with it. Thanks in advance...

Romy,
Thanks for your reply. I thought 10x4 was in the $400 range. No matter, I'm thinking of changing it for something a bit more substantial, like another Dynavector. Do you have any experience with their 20X-H high output MC cartridge?As I said b...

No, I do not. It is not because there are not but because I do not know. There are not reasons to buy cartridges from dealers as there is no cartridges serves that might come from dealers. Have you seen any dealers who would lend you a cartridge to t...

Hi. I acquired and spent a lot of time on this guy over the last few months. I've installed a Dynavector 507 MK II tonearm and a Dyhavector XVS-1 cartridge. I read Romy's comments that in his experience with the 8000 the belt doesn't affect the sou...

I appreciate your response, Adrian. I never have see any Koetsu user who did not try to convince me that Koetsu’s Sound is “beyond believe” and what you say actually does make sense to me. I even had a guy who used similar TT (Micro 2000) with Onyx a...
