"Harry Lavo" wrote in message "Vintage Lovers" will disagree with me, but the direct drive tables of the 70's/early 80's, while beautifully built, were often sonically inferior to good belt drive tables such as those manufactured by Linn, Ariston, Thorens, etc. Belt drive turntables have an inherent property that endears them to "audible differences" addicts like Harry. The belts all slip. Without constant monitoring, belt drive turntables play LPs at different speeds. That makes them sound different, just pleasing the "It all sounds different" bigots among us. Direct-drive turntables are bound and determined to play recordings that the same speed, reducing the exciting audible differences that make Harry's world go 'round. Furthermore, direct drive turntables all use negative feedback, and every true-blue audiophile knows how negative feedback craps up the sound. ;-) What utter, bigoted, tripe, Arny! Harry, why not tell us about all of the precise measurements of turntable speed that you have made in the past say 5 years. You OTOH have a habit of making up "tests" and "measurements" that never occurred. Thanks for admitting how ignorant you are about turntable tests and measurements, Maggie. Testing the speed of turntables is very basic and easy, and can be done in very little time with negligable effort using test equipment that costs virtually nothing. |

![]() Margaret von B said to CheapskateBorg: turntable tests and measurements Testing test equipment What you don't have is a decent turntable, you dumb ass liar. Maybe not, but according to the Laws of Krooscience, such a possession is unnecessary. I'm sure you know this, Margaret, but I'll recap it anyway. It is a Known Fact that turntables are inferior to digital media. Therefore, all "tests" performed by the Krooborg are certain to show what is already known, i.e. that turntables are noisy and erratic in speed. Hivieism tells us that "tests" are more meaningful than simply listening. This is an article of Their faith. If They accept the premise that Normals can base their choices on just listening, they will be forced to submit to reprogramming or even reorientation. Even 'borgs don't like doing that. -- "Christians have to ... work to make the world as loving, just, and supportive as is possible." A. Krooger, Aug. 2006 |
