It’s actually Ronaldo; or Dr. Ron to you.
What happened to the arm which out performs an Ekos SE?
Your last several posts directed at me greatly exaggerate statements I’ve made; are you trying to get a rise out of me or have a poor memory of what I’ve written?
The tonearm on my LP12 outperforms a Linn LV-X or Basik+, (and original Akito) yet costs little more. I doubt it’s to Ittok level; let alone an Ekos. For this mystery tonearm to work on an LP12, it needs modifying. I will share comparison clips at a later date, as well as how to modify it.
I haven’t listened to vinyl in over a month but the last time I did, I had forgotten how good my LP12 sounds.
PS. Your highlights are blown out.
Are you writing about the high lights on my boat? They are always turned off when it’s docked.
Back to damping and best types of hi-fi supports:
Yesterday I was out in a small boat with a friend just wandering through our harbor, when someone started playing
Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd. It sounded really good and was playing really loud; I heard it clearly 20 boats away.
I am very familiar with that record, so as we got closer and started hearing more songs, I had to know what kind of hi-fi he had on board. He let me take a look at his system but It was custom with no brand name.
Back in the day, most boat hi-fis were simply a 12V car stereo system. Many were just FM radio, though some had cassette decks, and later, most had CD players. My boat came stock with a Jensen CD system and sounded awful; even running Spotify into the “aux” input.
This guy had Spotify playing through a dedicated streaming system built into his yacht, and it sounded fantastic. I believe I am onto something with Fiberglass supports floating in water; damping and isolation.
