    Stereo Rehab experiences

    I took my Onkyo A-10 to Casper last year just to have it checked out. I mentioned a few things I was concerned about being that it is almost 40 years old (ie. power supply filter caps). Turns out everything was good, besides needing a minor amount of bias adjustment. So what I came away with...

    Clearaudio satisfy arm question

    Because no matter how far I backed it out there was still a significant amount of force moving the arm back towards the base. So I backed it all the way out and there is still enough force to move the arm towards the base. It is also still enough to move the cart's cantilever laterally when it...

    Clearaudio satisfy arm question

    The quing platform has already been deemed defective. This second issue is that the arm moves back towards base when floating in a zero vtf (balanced) state and the anti skate is also set to zero (magnetic screw removed).

    Have another question. When I set the arm to have a zero balance it drifts back towards the outter edge of the platter even with the antiskate screw (magnet) removed. The table is balanced. So question 2 is, is it normal behavior for this arm to exhibit antiskate behavior even in the absence of...

    Clearaudio satisfy arm question

    Thanks for the replies. Just picked up the table so I am well within return period. I'll contact the dealer and discuss options. I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't some behavior that was common to this arm first. Other than that, in my opinion this is a fantastic sounding table and...

    Clearaudio satisfy arm question

    Hello all, Can anyone tell me if the cuing mechanism on this tonearm is supposed to pivot back and forth? The horizontal platform/bar piece that the tonearm actually rests on is the piece that pivots. Problem is when i lift the cue in the middle of an album, that piece swings slightly as the...

    Raspberry Pi disappointing

    I might be mistaken, but I believe that ethernet and USB share the same bus on the pi. If true then maybe the dropouts are caused when the pi calls to refill its buffer through ethernet causing it to stop sending through USB.

    ESS Tempest LS8 refoam?

    Done! Finally had some spare time. The most time consuming part was removing the old gasket. After gluing the new surround the the cone and letting it dry overnight, I used a 30Hz tone to center it while gluing the basket edge. Success! No voice coil / former rub whatsoever. I'm also plesently...

    RPi and Runeaudio

    I'm doing the same setup (except went for the pro version on the DAC+). Still trying to decide on what OS to load on it though while waiting for it to arrive.
