Oh, David, come on! Can you for a second to stop to be a pretentious been counter and look at the picture from slightly more elevated perspective? I am glad that you do not worship the expensive parts, unique design, and precession of construction of...

I was offered to buy Micro seiki RX5000. The seller sent me a short video. If you see it carefully you will notice that the platter moving slightly up and down. Is that that normal or this could be sign that the bearing is not in good condition?

Many thanks, I don't really what version my platter is. Could you tell me from this pic?I removed the Thorens mat so it now looks so disgusting....

Hi Romy,Yes there was a reason. I typically used four arms on the table, the fourth being a shorter Ortofon rmg-212. The problems with the arrangements of two shorter arms with the two longer arms with the cable exit on bottom of the micro arm (which...

I've had rx5000 (with the ry5500 motor) for maybe 10-years now. Romy beat me to the comment that the person on audiogon that refers to these tables as tweeky and/or constantly in need of repair/missing parts has a clear agenda to sell something else!...

With SME 3012 (Shelter 901), Ortofon RMG 309 (Orotofon S15-T) and Micro 237 (french mono cartridge early 50's, unbeatable)...I couldn't really get the sound I wanted out of the TT until I put it on the SR stands, I envy your vibraplane but trying shi...

Thanks a lot Romy for your useful advices mixed with delicious and sometimes spicy
humor which make the meals more tasty ;-)

me rise again an old question: well damped/treated RX...

Tks Romy, well...the SME has actually a mass of 9.5gr. Could eventually use a Micro MA505 with a slightely higher mass (guess around 11gr), have u ever tried it with the Shelter ? Was also wondering if the Ortofon T30 cd be used with some sense to ch...

Is there any way to choose the "right wife" only by video and photos whithout trying her? ;) You are well experienced Romy, which are the symptoms of the "wrong", wobbling or worn out bearing when we buy Micro Seiki RX or SX? Anyway I would like to g...

It seems that all of much used Micro RX or SX TT's have the same problem, is that right? It will be nice if more of other owners of RX or SX TT's share their observations and experience regarding this problem... attached is one more video of other R...

A site reader sent me email: “ …some guys in Germany & Japan have put it [Micro RX5000] up against the Continuum and other ultra expensive high end tables with older vintage arms similar to your SME 3012 and shamed the newer tables.... “I asked a...

A few months ago I have bought almost new RX5000 from US and I am happy with it... somebody told me an idea to mark the platter and to count how many turns it will do from 33 r.p.m. until completely stops and I have counted about 30 to 32 full turns ...

The RX5000 platter is ball bearing and I feel that in some
cases if a platter has a direct path to mechanical ground then it is slightly better
than suspended platters, would it be oil, magnetic, air or a penicillin sustention.
There are two aspec...

I is interesting that most of the “expensive” TTs, with a difference
to a degree of Continuum go for just one topology: mass loading. Yes back a Lechitsky
with a bunch of math and theory was postulating that belt drive is fundamentally
less advanc...

Back when I still had an interests to pock the Morons at Audiogon

it and I challenged then:https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/micro-sx-8000-ii-or-sz-1

Hi Micro Seiki guys!
From a few months I have RX5000 and of course this is great TT and even more if the platter is damped and upgraded with a proper mat.
Now I have offer from a seller of SX8000I. First I...
