I'm not sure that this is as clear cut as some would make out. I've enjoyed quite a bit of re-mastered new vinyl: Kate Bush and Jethro Tull for a start off. The Abbey Road half speed version of John...

This!! :rolleyes:
Wifey has a thing about 'stuff' as she calls it. Shame, as one of the first things I look at when visiting friends and rellies is books and music collection. It tells you...
Many 'recipes' for record cleaning solution seem to be IPA based. However, I've been using a 50:50 mix of purified water and bio-ethanol with 10ml of Ilfotol in 1 litre. You can get the bio-ethanol...
Been wondering about this for a while.......
Probably like many, I ripped my CDs to an HDD and then consigned them to the attic. Trouble is, the attic goes from being like a fridge in the winter...
For the second time in a month or so I've bought new vinyl which, after a clean on an Okki, has played flawlessly except for several cracks and pops on the last 10 seconds of the final side as it...
To be fair, Shane, when it came to it I think the problem was actually more to do with the sub-chassis. When Steve took the original board off he found that when the platter was level the board...
That's my turntable! :)
I haven't collected it yet, so can't comment on the sound, but judging by the photographs it seems that Steve's done a fantastic job. I suspect that having everything on a...
Unlevel sub-chassis - incredible!
Thanks for adding to the growing TT2 information Jim. Please expand.. how much was it out by? I'm guessing you must have totally stripped the deck to the bare...
For buying coffee beans I can recommend Coffee Bean Shop https://www.coffeebeanshop.co.uk/
The service is good and coffee very nice. It's mailed out on next day delivery and you pay a fixed rate...
Yes, keep all the TT2 info coming - the wealth of TT2 knowledge on AoS was one of the reasons I joined. I could never understand why the TT2 didn't get mentioned much on any of the other forums.

If a complete HDD wipe and OS install seems a bit too nuclear then have another look at settings. Go to System Preferences and select Sound, then make sure that your DAC is selected and not the...
I also had some terrible problems recently.
I use a late 2012 Mac Mini with Audirvana feeding a Heed DAC via USB. The sound output just stopped without warning. Everything 'looked' OK, just no...
That's a good idea :) My work lappy is totally locked down by the corporate IT police, but I should be able to get a mate to pop by with something. For Windows I'll need to install drivers (not...
It's definitely not the volume (been caught be that before!).
The DAC was tested at my local dealers - I took it in and he plugged it in between a NAS and a Linn Streamer I think. I know that it...
Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I'm still without sound, however.
Latest is that I have completely removed Audirvana from the Mac and still nothing. All the sound settings in System...
Sadly still unfixed :scratch:
I did try the different settings in A+ without success. Although it seems logical, I really can't see how A+ would be the cause since iTunes in standalone mode fails...
I've tried various combinations of the A+ volume controls, without success. The DAC has no volume controls. At the moment it's set on DAC or else software or such like. Other than USB there isn't...
Hi,
I'm hoping there might be some Mac experts who might be able to help a technophobe in need of assistance!
Essentially I have no sound from my digital source. I run a late 2012 Mac Mini i7...
Interesting stuff, this. I also found that a carbon fibre brush tended to make things worse - weird! Also seems that some records are just inherently more staticky than others - sometimes it's a...
Good news Svend - one less problem for you to worry about! :)
Thanks guys. I've not taken the arm board off to check, but as Shane said, there seems nothing else that could cause the issue. It was all quite perplexing, and it was only when I read of other...
Hey Svend, here we are again!
I don't know too much about the Radius, but the Xerxes is suspended on "blobs" rather than springs, which do sag after a while and I think the only fix is to replace....
Hi Folks,
I'm hoping that some of the resident Heybrook TT2 owners/experts can offer some guidance......
It's always proved to be impossible to level both the arm board AND the platter. When...
No worries, Svend. I've only just joined the forum so still finding my way about, but either way you are welcome to any info I have on the TT2 or TPS. I'll have more time at the weekend to work...
Hi Svend,
I have a TT2 also, and used to have the integrated TPS (where the normal TT on/off switch is removed). I had a couple of issues with it - first one necessitating replacement caps and the...
