Back when I still had an interests to pock the Morons at Audiogon
thread in there where the owners of HS -80 Flywheel told about the benefit of
it and I challenged then:https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/micro-sx-8000-ii-or-sz-1

Dear drdna,I agree with you, my explanation was a little audio reviewerish! If you noticed in my first post I just mentioned Sussarro being different to other Moving coils of my experience. To me it has advantage of high compliance cartridges in conv...

Excellent! Looking forward to hearing it. I have been curious about Micro Seiki's but have never even seen one, let alone heard one. A site like you describe would be very useful if it was done in a controlled fashion. The system to make the r...

[quote user="N-set"] I'm still puzzled by the strange polar plot of your Micro (maybe you remember--a pinkfishmedia project aimed at advanced analysis of motor speed instability). Perhaps would be worth to retake the signal with some known test LP.[/...

Thanks Romy, I understand what you're saying about the anti-skate now. Mine is definitely not working, so I'll see if can carefully open it up and have a look. So you dissassembled two arms eh? Were you trying to modify them, or just curious? I'm act...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"]When youmdiscuss silicon dumping with your 3012 do you mean the silicon you put on headshell orDo you mean you use a silicon bath to damp the arm resonance, or both? I can't find the thread and I have decided to spend some ...

I think you also mentioned that you were involved with the Voyd (which for a Pink Triangle user as I was back then, looked very charming). I recall Voyd being recently acquired by Audio Note UK; are you affiliated with them?Anyway, I actually wa...

[quote user="guy sergeant"]Sorry, I have a better understanding of the purpose of this exercise now.Are you making 2 new platters or is one to be the existing Micro Platter? [/quote]
Nope, juts adding RX-5000 platter and base to the existing RX-8000...

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?

is that the operating word is "Turntable Collection". The Air Force One (hate the name!) is the culmination of the great Micro Seiki's coming full circle and once again starting a new chapter in high end analog reproduction, this completes my MS COLL...

I have a micro with vacuum hold down and was in the process of looking for a mat or making one, either out of leather or cutting down a herbie grunge buster. What is the thickness of your mat and what is it made of?

[quote user="xandcg"]Amir,Do you like LampzatOr? You can ever ask them for custom made one, hardware and/or voicing. So you will have with something sounding (exactly?) how you want it to sound.IMO, custom made always bring the best result.[/quote]Th...

OK, now I recognize my S2 driver, thank God.
I was give to my new PS for MF channel one more change today to show itself off. I relayed the Hartmann ‘s first movement of the Shostakovich First Violin Concerto. As I said above the progress was very n...

Romy,Intersting indeed, appreaiate and understand your angle.Well we obviously do not know each other. I certainly do not feel like I am "acquiring, evaluating, advancing and reconciling audio equipment" as for most of my system has been the same for...
|
Ok, 2 thoughts:1) Forsell seems to have some air suspension for the CD platter. I don't know in which axis/axes it works but if in the same as the rollers (lateral motion+torsion) then there is a potential for a troublewith a double compliance system...

Laurent:I would be VERY careful about "rocking" the 5651 in its socket in an attempt to establish better contacts. I have "split" the glass envelope near the pins on a couple of 5651s doing just this and I did not realize it until the sound got scar...

At the 7-level perceptual paradigm was operating not Sakuma by Cho-sun for Micro-Seiki. Sakuma was not operating in my view at any level but just listed highly band-passed, highly compressed gray sound. Nl, feels that “Systems like these are all abou...

Thanks for sharing, Romy! "Micro" and "macro" "schematics" would be a nice adjunct, to show how you hook up electronics and speakers, as well as speaker positioning. Of course, lots of recordings are treated with synthetic reverb, so those are gettin...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Ok, here is another subject. I feel that I kind of screw it up as I did not foresee it in my planning. What I need is to add some decupling devised to my horn in the location where it will be mounted to the surface of the ...

I do not know if I agree, or take seriously belt creeping. Belt creeping is applicable for the systems where the speed or tension a variable. However, in the case of TT, where the speed and tension are constant the amount of belt creep is constant al...

[quote user="ducatirider"]a load on the side of the bearing could cause an elliptical rotation. since we are dealing with micro-engineering the effect is likely audible. Arthur Khoubesserian of Funk Firm uses a single motor with 2 a...

Thank you for sharing these thoughts - it fills me with wonder. I too in the end do not regret the money I spent because sometimes you need to buy the "sounds better than anything ever" amplifier, cartridge or tonearm, and to hear for yourself that i...

If you built a machine purely as a CD converter, it would be interesting to experiment with different power supplies to determine whether a higher number of errors get through the sieve when rail noise is higher. It has been well documented that diff...

Options are limited here... looking at the schematic, you're sorta pinned in by the biasing topology used. One typical method would be to use a resistor divider network at the input grid to the 6E6P. Problem is, this results in a huge bias offset. By...

First and most important is time aligning the drivers, this will help a lot.When you are finally done, realign again... ijijiijii I would think you already have everything perfectly simmetrical to your listening position etc.Toe in and all of that. p...

I see a lot of problems in his specific implementation but the idea of extra long arms always fascinated me. In the past I has Micro Seki 16’ arm – the longest arm I ever seen. But those Portuguese guys went further… This photograph was sent to me by...

I forgot to mention that I have for a while feared that some "commercial cleaning solutions" and "treatments" use pernicious chemicals that actually "soften" the vinyl, at least for a while.This would certainly tie in with the "transformation" I have...
