| 回覆 (218): New TT design |
purchase of that pool table which we discussed the other week
______________________________________________________
Buy! Buy! Buy! You guys are genius. But transforming a pool table into a turntable won't be an easy task, bet you must have the solution already. Just make sure that it looks good besides sounding great. |

diawok,
The Pythagoras is designed by the same designer as the Thales tonearm, and has just received a very positive review from Michael Fremer of Stereophile!
Let's make a Lenco out of that design ;-)

Give me sometimes as I need to recover from the OD first.
Just the Paratrace stylus on a new SPU cartridge without the sapphire cantilever as the repair didn't work. I think i will pay TopClass a visit and return his "mint" SPU motor.;)
Will keep an eye out for a big Commonwealth for you.

I think you are OD with too many toys right now !! @[email protected]
Now you have to tell me how good the MIDAS Paratrace is compared with the A90 ^__^
Did you get a sapphire cantilever for the SPU ORTOFON ? mine is just retipped with paratrace. |

After an eternity, the gold Midas finally returned from Expert Stylus and boy it's worth the long wait. Simply sensational after the ESC touch.
A lot of gold and bling on this idler drive.. Heheh!!

My initial impression is of unconvincing benefit from doing double Lenco platter (7.5kg). The guys who reported obvious change are using 15-18 kg I think.

Those guys do not have a Mammoth bearing like you ! ^__* |

Tomahawk is great and it's a significant improvement over the stock wand. Loving T3Pro big time. ;)

Actually, I believe the wand is named after the Tomahawk cruise missile, which it resemblance. From what diawok has found out, apparently it is just as lethal!
.........................................................
Very lethal - we will see when the Master Limage comes and auditions it ........... but since he visited the icefox den the newly crowd King of the QUAD Mountain ....... its down hill all the way now :-(
VASH - you are right - it is TOMAHAWK !!! sorry for the typo ! @[email protected] |

Dear Ken and all,
I'd like to clarify, this is TOMAHAWK, not TomHawk.
Tomahawk is a kind of tools....
Or, an attractive model in Dodge's catalogue.

GLK,
due to the lower mass and the one piece laser wand, I could lower the air pressure even further. The improvement is stunning ! transparency and flow of detail with just pure smoothness it is hard to comprehend ! |

| I think so ...... need more time and more ears ! I think the background is quieter, the range of frequency transition is smoother. It is not a massive leap forward, but hey in this hobby you pay top dollar for small percentage increase ! One thing I have noticed is the air pressure was hissing with this wand, so I have dropped the air pressure again ... its super low !! I have yet to hear the arm since the drop in pressure ..... may be I will hear a more significant improvement ^__* |

| 回覆 (184): HiFi show in Taiwan. |
| I had attended HIFI show in Taipei last year. It was in a hotel so all rooms setting more like a flat we living. Also more than 50% rooms use LP and classical music as source. Wish HK catch up. |
