Re: I Found A Table To Put The Dynavector DV505 Tone Arm On

I am beginning to think these tables might have had a weak link in the motor. I had come across this Amazon before buying the Referenz, and I thought it was sort of a hack job done to the motor. Now I might rethink that. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649674513-amazon-1-superior-tt-with-upgrade...

Re: I Found A Table To Put The Dynavector DV505 Tone Arm On

So I got a message from Paypal last night, the seller has agreed to a return. I have to pay shipping and upload a tracking number. Once its signed for the funds are returned to me. I guess it can take up to 5 days for that to occur. It gives me a bit of trepidation as its going to cost me a hundred ...

Re: I Found A Table To Put The Dynavector DV505 Tone Arm On

Have you had to use your Sota to mount the Dynavector arm on a temporary basis? Pleased you're liking it with the new arm cable, I'm sure it's very good. No I have it temporarily mounted on the left rear corner of the Well Tempered Reference. It weighs 65 pounds and is not suspended, so it's a good...

Re: I Found A Table To Put The Dynavector DV505 Tone Arm On

Ok so I broke down and bought the Dynavector head shell. I figured this tone arm is a long term keeper for me and having it complete as possible means a lot to me. So i splurged a bit and bought it, as it looks like it is in nice shape. Also its 15 grams, and finding heavier head shells is not easy,...

Re: I Found A Table To Put The Dynavector DV505 Tone Arm On

I spent some time listening to records last night and the Wireworld cable has settled in nicely. Actually this occurred much quicker than I thought it was going to, and that is a bit of a relief. The combination of the Ikeda and Dynavector is very nice, a transparent sound with no discernable colora...

Re: I Found A Table To Put The Dynavector DV505 Tone Arm On

So here is a temporary installation. I would need to shorten the anti skate string a touch. But at least this way I can play the cartridge and start breaking in the tonearm cable. The only problem is I cannot put the dust cover on now.

Re: Some random thoughts

I wholeheartedly agree with the last point that does not have a number. This is a hobby and meant to be fun, and for us to enjoy music. It's not life and death, and no absolutes for right and wrong. A well crafted stereo system is a thing of beauty and brings us a great deal of pleasure, but very fe...

Re: Lost for words

I took the "no fuse" line seriously and wired in a Schuko socket into the ring main, put in a 16A trip in the fuse box and heard very little difference. You win some, you loose some. I certainly do understand skepticism regarding fuses. People just have to decide what they are willing to ...
