I always thought the resonance was a cantilever bending mode, but that may not be it. Not sure.
I wonder if phono cart break in is actual wear. Lyra Delos after (too) many hours measures less bright than DV-20X2L.
Part 1: Reality check with a cheap SPL meter or why you should always double-check As mentioned in a profile post, I really regret what happened...
I should've realized this before, but the back panel inputs 3/4 have a higher maximum input level. Ordered adapters to try them out. According to...
I meant the higher gain modes more specifically. If 72dB gain is a selling point and you measure more like 68dB (from what I can tell from the...
I missed it when you first posted these graphs, but I was always under the impression that phono stage gain was specified at 1kHz. Going by your...
That's true. What would you like to hear? I think most musical instruments are out since we need significant LF content, but maybe some very large...
Nope, that's not it. I do agree with the first part. A seems to have more of a thump. Listening to it on my UERMs the difference is much more...
I just checked back on this and my MOTU M4 does seem to use a digital volume control. 1dB stepped for most of the range on the inputs and outputs,...
I mentioned this in @k4rstar's D/S thread: Here's an example of such a file. It's a binaural recording of me sitting in a subway train. Due to...
Over here it seems like 99% of people wear masks when needed. Not when hiking and I think it's weird they require that. Some people resort to a...
@skem phase shifts across instrument harmonics should be virtually 0 for any linear phase OS DAC. Even with minimum phase filters most of the...
We do have building codes and I just tried to find the relevant part of it... seems that the only real guideline is that there has to be...
Nevermind, meant to attach it. Here it is anyway: https://www.stereophile.com/reference/arc_angles_optimizing_tonearm_geometry/index.html It's...
Regarding Zenith, I found the stereophile article @OJneg posted on changstar very illuminating. It should visually be the easiest parameter to set...
