    Still no belts for Yamaha PX-3

    Just another battle with a fight picker... Some people just revel in provoking others to action and laboriously uncovering the most infinitesimal flaw in their writings whether it be grammar, articulation, spelling, or otherwise. I never cease to be amazed at the time they have at their...

    Still no belts for Yamaha PX-3

    "Nonsense" from Professor Bizzt pfcs49.... Take more care that you do not misquote me. This is what I DO say regarding these arms: "It is not uncommon to find very poor quality advice on internet audio forums regarding "cures" for PX-2 and PX-3 tonearms. Some of the recommended "cures"...

    Reliability concerns Hello Persil, I could not decide how to best shorten your text to use a quote, so I just did a simple post instead. I have already stated this before, but these tables are more complex and there is a slight risk to owning them, but this level of complexity is necessary to...

    That was an interesting project of mine. Note the custom white inside. That was a total strip-down, major plinth repair, and rebuild. Best wishes, Professor Bizzt

    Pioneer pl l1000 setting up to correct bias/azumuth

    On the existence of "zenith"... Hi Ed, As everyone should know by now, I have a lot of respect for your experience and for you in general, but are you not using a tonearm geometry term that does not exist? Please educate me if I am wrong, but the term we are referring to here is...

    Never touch your Pioneer "security" screws... Hello Pio, I am not sure what "security" screws you are referring to, but if you are referring to any of the 6 tonearm assembly mounting screws, I could not more strongly recommend that no one ever loosen these to "adjust" any form of arm...

    Pioneer pl l1000 setting up to correct bias/azumuth

    Zenith? What is zenith??? Hello Lawrence, "Zenith"? Unless I am loosing what's left of my small mind, there is no such term used in turntable geometry. If I am correct, we need to permanently refrain from using this term less others become more confused, (some permanently). There is only...

    Pioneer pl l1000 setting up to correct bias/azumuth

    SLT turntables don't skate, they sing.... There is no skating force inherent to these turntables, therefore there is no anti-skating or "bias" adjustment. Period. Ever.... I have a question Lawrence Sk8ter. You would not, by any chance, also be Lawrence beveridge2sw, would you? Best...

    Please do.... Again, I'm passing the ball to a better runner than me. I am taking a break for awhile. P.S. My time on Audio Karma has come to an end. It has been an enlightening experience for me, to say the least. Best wishes, Professor Bizzt

    Review of the Panasonic EPC-450C & EPC-450C-II OK everyone, I have uploaded Audio Magazine's 1974 review of the Panasonic EPC-450C & EPC-450C-II strain gauge cartridges to the "Digital Docs" section of this website. For those (like me) who have a hard time trying to find this section, from...

    Hello Flavio81, Well, first everyone should know that I'm not a real professor. This is just a nickname I was given due to some experiments I was doing at the time. I have collected quite a bit of information on turntables and some on strain gauge cartridges, but it is all on my other...

    Attempt at clarity Hello everyone, My ability to articulate is inconsistent at best. I am never completely happy with my wording. Please allow me another opportunity to fine tune my original post to this thread. In order to help make sense of this discussion, I think it would be best to...

    Hello everyone, There is a very large and important subject that is now way overdue for some seriously intelligent debate. For many years now the music reproduction industry has been bending over backwards to appease and encourage those searching for their own personal version of audio...

    Tracking error accuracy limitations of SLT turntables Hello Sk8ter, Yes, that is normal for a PL-L1000 or any non air bearing SLT turntable, as there are limitations in the ability of the carriage to keep up with rapidly changing tracking errors. This characteristic is a non-issue, and does...

    Spindle hole off-centering & wow Hello Lawrence, If we rotate an object at a fixed RPM, say 33 1/3 RPM, and measure the velocity at different points along a radii from the spindle, we will see that as we measure the velocity at points further along the radii away from the spindle, the...

    Dealing with record eccentricity Hello beveridge2sw, The PL-L1000 and PL-L1000A (like most turntables) do not really "deal" with record eccentricity. The fact that they incorporate a SLT tonearm does not solve the problem of record spindle hole non-centering that induces wow into the signal...
