Indeed a tuneful contemplation tpetch!

……… the P10 on thye other hand struck the right balance for me between tune & neutrality that I'm more drawn to than any LP12 I've owned or listened to ……….. This could be why people disagree with your opinion. Only if you use the tune method in favour of all other evaluation methods will others (w...

So I should look for a tuneful japanese direct drive, no I should look for a Rega, no I should keep my Sondek………. Not easy so I will play my CD’s untill you all agree……….. That will take some time. A Merry Christmas to you all. Hopefully we all enjoy our vinyl collection using tuneful turntables. :...

Whish you all a Bright Flight the end of the year and after

Hi tpetsch, Probably you misunderstood. My remarks were not about the the P10, about the video, but about the thread after. Never heard the P10 playing as the LP12, Although Lovergroves cannot be complete in my opinion it was an interesting one. I’ m kinda disturbed about the discussion, seems to be...

I know that the LP12 is king around these parts and I am a big fan as well, but I am very curious if anyone has tested the LP12 against a VPI, Thorens, Technics, SME, Rega, Kuzma, Feickert or any other potential competitors. Please share any experiences and listening comparisons. Thanks. It seems t...

I just read the whole thread and the two video’s. I think a useful TT introduction. But narrowing the discussion to a combat between LP12 and Planar 10 makes me boring and sad a little. It’s not about music and musicality but seems to end up just in an ideological one. The thread alienate from music...

Seasonal Greetings

Enjoy the music tomorrow. Monday, Monday. I hope it turns out So good to you and that Monday evenin’ will still there with you and don’t leave you cryin’ all the time (unless it ‘s crying with happiness).

Stop thinking, connect the cartridge and listen!

Best quote of 2022. My experience with connecting Nagaoka MP 300, JNP500 stylus, with the Slipsik 7.1 just sounds right, right with the wow experience. Stop thinking. Just listen. Trust your ears!

Sound facilitates music. Sound supported by a good acoustics of a concert hall, by a good hifi setup. Good sound gets the best out of the music. It goes beyond a musical comparison of A and B. Good sound helps to get involved into the music and leaves you flabbergasted after the sound of music has t...

Thank you all for your comments! Very helpful. I agree with Charlie that we’re on the knife edge here. Listening in the room reveals more, but the clips on Dropbox sound pretty close to the originals. A little murkier perhaps, which I don’t think favours Lower. There was 0.3 ohms between Lower and ...

Ok, let’s see what you think of these two: Lower: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zuuyg8h3uu5ttr0/Lower.mov?dl=0 Higher: https://www.dropbox.com/s/awrmf6bcmfbwcpz/Higher.mov?dl=0 Now after all the comments, which road you will drive Fredrik, the high road or the low road? Or will it be the middle of the ...

I feel the same as Beck, I agree with Markiteight to try the in-between making the high definition of the Lower more smooth, “human” ( Beck), but holding on to the precise.

Lower more clear and defined, Higher more smooth, probably more body, but less defined IMO

Fredrik, I understand the methodology. But not the micro-technical details. Must be a precious work. Indeed an interested question in what way other devices like phono preamps will differ/improve using the same selecting and searching method.

To my ears the 998 is more clear, more pronounced. 997 is slightly covered, tends to dullness. But longer listening 997 might be less fatiguing.

C: https://www.dropbox.com/s/e5mnksflt3zfj ... C.mov?dl=0

I prefer C, more subtle delivery.

The GL75 was a very good turntable . The early ones tended to rumble but this was a combination of the idler drive and the arm. With a high compliance cartridge, the resonance of the arm/cartridge combo could be brought down below the audible range (but then it was in the footfall range). Current a...
