    I spent the day setting up and listening to this Dr Feickert Woodpecker with a Kiseki Purple Heart cartridge. I have been dying to hear this cartridge for while now. It didn't disappoint

    Re: Turntables Gallery

    Recently added two new tables to the stable......TRIANGLE ART REFERENCE and SIGNATURE. Somewhat "Blingy" looking via a picture, however in person they look quite impressive and more importantly they perform at the highest levels.

    Congrats on the Thales Simplicity II tonearm, looks like you need to add it to your system signature. I've never had the opportunity to hear it but always greatly admired its engineering, being able to effectively rotate the cartridge's orientation as it moves across the grooves while maintaining the rigidity needed. Amazing, enjoy it in great health! I have to admit to being very envious of your dedicated analog system, very nice!

    Thanks Bill. I have to admit the Simplicity II has far exceeded any expectations I had. We have all had many sideways journeys in out hifi adventures but this is definately a large step forward.

    I just need to come up with the $$ now. Then I will add it to the signature.

    The Thales Easy at a lower price is very good as well. I tried that out first. This tangential tracking seems like the ultimate if it can be done right.

    cheers

    Shane - congrats. I've never seen one in person. It's a brilliant solution and approach to an age old problem. I would very curious to hear about your initial setup experiences, like getting the initial azimuth right.

    Re: Turntables Gallery

    Jtsnead77: So far I'm liking the tavish a lot. I can't honestly tell you I have compared to all that much; my last phono pre was an Acoustech PH-1 with new opamps. But I am liking what I am hearing - my Adagio is semi-custom in that it has a larger power supply transformer than stock (Scott had built it as a custom order for a guy who cancelled, and was nice enough to sell it to me at the standard price.) Also has the uprated Jensen transformers, and I put some carefully-chosen NOS tubes in it. I had largely abandoned analog for quite a few years; kept both my tt's (The Micro Seiki you see above and an upgraded VPI Jr with MkIV platter which is at another location) but hadn't used them much lately at all. The thing that most shocked me when I got my new setup running is just how quiet vinyl can be. Obviously the Adagio's not solely responsible for that but I can tell you that at 64db of gain thru the MC inputs it is absolutely dead quiet; I can put my ear right up against a tweeter and hear nothing. So far I'm enjoying the heck out of it!!

    Re: Turntables Gallery

    I will share with you all one of my pet peeves...TT's without hinged dust covers. I fully get that not everybody wants or needs one, but those of us that have cats have no choice. One kinda nice thing about my Bryston table is that you can put hinges on it that allow you to easily remove the dust cover when you want, but it's there for you when you need it. (Not the only one like that to be sure.) When I was shopping I was thinking seriously about a VPI Prime or Prime Signature, but I need to be able to plonk that dust cover down in a hurry if necessary. By the way though I have it on good authority that VPI will be coming out with a nice 40th anniversary model that might well fit the bill. Anyway there were plenty of candidates that I ruled out b/c of the dust cover issue.

    Eat C Sharp. A dust cover by manufacturer could be had...in choice of color...for about another 400$. No thanks. With the nitty, a carbon fiber brush, a zero drop, and needle fluid, I am good.

    Understeer is when you hit the wall with your front end. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with your rear end. Horsepower is how hard you hit the wall. Torque is how far you move the wall.
