I got to the point when I want to add a long tonearm to my setup. SME is not a must, but only a starting point. At the same time I don't want to get into anything outrageous financially.So which way to go?I have M2-9 now and like it, so M2-12 seems n...

I know, the way I asked the question makes it uneasy to answer it.Micro Seiki fascinates me; though my experience with their tables has been less than satisfying so far. I had three very unsuccessful attempts with various 5000s, and I guess I am look...
|
|
Is it any good? I mean - how exactly good is it? There is one for sale on eBay....
|
|
Thank you, I'll call him....

I am starting new amplification project and need to order custom metal enclosures for it. The guy that I've been using for few years retired and I'm looking for someone to replace him with. Any suggestions will be much appretiated.Thank you....
|
|
I tried this particular device. It is quite convenient, though I did not do enough critical listening to elaborate on its quality. M-Audio makes few external soundcards that are quite good....
|
|
I thought I saw a picture somewhere on your site with PSU for Bidat with multiple transformers and such....
|
|
Romy, would you mind elaborating on specifics of your power supply? My Bidat is going to John in a couple of weeks and I am finalizing my thoughts. Thank you....

I know Dave for quite some time by now. He does not seem to get any better, but I have got used to him and pretty much disregard his behavior and only pay attention to why I came there. :)Avantgarde speakers sound good to my taste in general. I don't...
|
|
Coincident was not there, unfortunately. I, too heard good things about them but never had a chance to listen to them. Maybe I should try David Lewis - as much as I don't like going there, he has some good stuff once in a while.I liked the show. It w...

Give me a ring if you make it - I'll buy you coffee. I am in 3430....

Thanks, Alex, I will look for Saturday- Sunday trip. The show need no more then 2-3 hours…The Cat[/quote]I don't mind. I can do two days....

Thank, Alex. I have no problems with stick shift, I drive myself stick shift. As I understand you should do RT87 North and Boston is a good 2 hours away from your direction… When are you leaving and when are you ...
|

I am going. Driving from NJ, can pick you up on my way. That is if you can tolerate audio nut with a stick shift....
|
|
So how do I insert rubber grommets into SME bedplate?...
|
|
Thank you, Romy. What about weight? My tonearm is probably too light in its original form?...
|
|
What would be good place to start? I am using custom built 834P and S&B 103s. Also, my tonearm is 9-inch SME M2, should I put some additional weight on it?Thank you....
|
|
This was probably discused ten thousand times before, so I hope no one will shoot me for doing it yet again. I needed to get new tubes for my EAR834P, and decided to look at the options for a change, now that prices on good Tele's have skyrocketed so...
|
|
I am beginning a small tube project, and Hammond transformers came to my attention. Are they any good? I am thinking
Hammond 1650W for output, with 6550's in push-pull.Thank you....
|
|
This is helpful, Romy. Another question - is JBL 2446H a decent driver to try? Also - just to get an idea - how much can I expect to pay for custom horns?...
|
|
Visited audio show in Montreal. Once again realized that only horn speakers can sound decent. So I was wondering, if someone with experience could tell me the basics on horn speakers. I apologize if my question sounds really stupid, but I am not sure...
|
|
Their prices are the same as from Bent Audio, though. Bummer......
|
|
As I moved out last summer my wife happily threw out some of my stuff, including pair of Stevens & Billington transformers. Where can I get another pair at a decent price (used maybe)? Also, I heard there is a silver option available - is it worth it...

[quote user="Dmitry"]
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 sou...
|
|
Romy, so if I understood you correctly I should be able to use any decent cartridge on this arm, just as long as I add enough weight to it? Which cartridges can I look at (I don't really have a bidget at this point)?...
|
|
For quite some time I've been haunted by compatibility between cartridges and tonearms. I've read pretty much everything available out there, but it looks like most of the rules are either silly, or plain incorrect. I had decent results with few cart...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]...if you still care bout the Beethoven’s symphonies then here is a sexy lead for you...[/quote] Thank you, I'll try to locate one....
|
|
So, is there a place anywhere in the world to get a headshell and fluid damper for M2 without having to rob the bank first?Thank you....
|
|
Great! Please let me know when you are ready to unveil it. In the meantime, is there something I could start working on? Can you pass me transformer parameters? What about tubes and sockets? Caps?
Thank you....

|
Romy, how do I get permission to repeat original Melquiades?...
