Ah okay seems I was wrong in that case, I thought I needed somewhere around 15g eff mass as although the Vermillion is low compliance it isn't very heavy. Happy to be corrected though so thanks for...

Thanks Mike, looks like it is a bit too heavy sadly.

Hi Keith,

I am seriously interested in this, when you say heavy mass do you know what it's effective mass is? I am looking for an arm to carry my Koetsu Urushi Vermillion cartridge which is low...

I spotted that same on ebay last week & asked the seller some questions, but he hasn't got back to me yet. I specifically asked what range you could vary the effective mass as it isn't mentioned in...

Looks fantastic Chris, Robin & I would love to hear your current set up (hint hint).

:)

I knew Clive and as people have said he was a lovely man. He helped me a lot over the last 4 years or so, with his time, knowledge & generosity, and will be sorely missed and fondly remembered. My...

Okay thanks everyone.

Incidentally Geoff the new 'arm tube is from XAD, with their own Cardas 33AWG x 4 twisted pair Litz cable installed. It is a bit stiffer & a bit heavier than the standard one...

Hi Patrick, & thanks for responding. I understand that bit, but the original 'arm still has the OEM wiring which has 5 wires for some reason, the usual red, green & white, plus a yellow & a black, so...

Hi all, I have just bought a new stiffer 'arm tube plus rewire for my Mission 774 & would like to use the original with a mono cartridge that only has 2 pins. Just want to know what to do with the...

Sorry it took so long for my impressions of the visit, I was having trouble getting online but am here now.

Jack has already outlined Tom's equipment & I am sure that many members here are...

Hi Alan, I too would like to listen to your demo unit if there is a list to your name down anywhere? Only thing is I am not keen on the looks of the front plate, could you do one with a blank front...

Since my Art Audio Quintet came into my hands it has absolutely beguiled me with its qualities and it will have to be prised from my cold dead hands! It has had a few owners on the Wam & has had...

Thanks for that Paul, I had seen it but it is a little bit of a stretch if I am honest, although I could be tempted if it was a good match.

Thanks for that Geoff, I tried to message you with a question but your inbox is full, anyhow no harm in putting it here.

Hi Geoff, thanks for your response to my thread, it is mainly thanks to you...

Thanks so far guys, I will address all points in this one post, hope you don't mind.

1. Patrick, I do like Decca's & have had one, a Gold which I loved, but for some reason I didn't think they...

I echo everything said about the Denon DL-102, in fact I sold on a Lyra Helikon mono because I prefered the Denon's sound, despite the price difference. My only problem now is I have a low mass arm...

Hi all, I have been pontificating on changing the Jelco SA750D on my 401 in favour of a low mass arm, & to that end have been convinced to try a Mission 774. Using a Highphonic MC-R5 cartridge the...

Mike I have a 401 & have been using a Jelco SA750D with it very successfully with a AT33PTG mkii, a lovely arm to use & looks to be very well made, for the money it is excellent.
However, I have...

Another one late to the party here, if I can remember them all they include.......
Bush portable (late 1960's)
Akai direct drive (late 1970's)
Then a bit of a gap until.....

Well I am going, with my buddy "Wizmax" from the Wam. He is putting a system together from vintage gear mainly, with a Rogers amp & speakers plus his Technics SP10/Encounter/Ortofon Rohmann & has...

Hi guys, as per title I am after a Rogers MCP 100 battery powered head amp if anyone has one laying in a draw unused they wouldn't mind parting with I would love to buy one.

Hi, pm sent re your Carver SUT.

Does the mono cart need any particular type of arm Tom? I will have it if my Jelco 750D will be okay with it please.

I should be travelling up to Sheffield before Christmas & have a few mates in the Brighton/Lancing area, so if that helps I am happy to do it.

Hi Oliver, I enjoy reading your posts about your amplifier adventures, but can I ask you about something you mentioned when you first got your Krell. You said you thought your turntable was broken...
