I love them, for the record! My wife however HATES the way they look as our living room TT. I also thought about moving the StudioDeck in there and doing a direct drive for my office, but she hates the way the MoFi looks too. Haha. She very much goes for simple layout, woodgrain tables, so the...

Hey if they were still in production!

Someone here is using a Grado MCZ stylus, yeah? I recently swapped my Platinum3 off the Cliffwood back to the original VPI/Grado Green cart and put an MCZ on it. Grado claims 2000 hours on their woodies, but I've always found around 1000 that things start to get a little toothy. Perhaps a...

Awesome, glad it settled in. I have a feeling there was a batch that was extra cranky, and I ended up with one of those.

SOV?? Wow. Totally unaware!

I do order from him occasionally because as far as I know, it's the only place to get Analogue Productions titles with free shipping and available to discount, and I enjoy his weekly release videos, but to your point - so many of these YouTubers legit don't know what they're listening to, or...

That's what I like to hear. Will get my hands on one of these at some point! Was about to leave an angry comment on this video, but for now I'll just share it here: Neill King engineered, Rob Cavallo produced, and Jerry Finn mixed (on a Neve). It features absolutely smacking drum sounds to...

Yup, definitely issues, but I think you can say that about virtually every manufacturer. They're fickle devices, but I agree, MoFi isn't having the best track record. That said, at $1500 I think they've got the UD priced right now. The first StudioDeck I had was awful. The second one I bought...

Thanks, @Ghost ! Enjoy that Jules and that East River view! Wonderfully objective review for a brand new piece of gear. The TT market has definitely shifted, feels like a new wave with Technics really leading the way again. Perhaps this doesn't belong in this thread, but I visualize the...

@Lek just wanted to chime in and say the 1st gen of GR's tonearm lift was so bad that I returned it, it just totally affected the usability of the table for me. A quick Google yielded I wasn't the only person experiencing the issue. I know it seems like a small thing, perhaps it won't matter to...

Awaiting the head to head of the UD!

Psyched to hear what you think about Dookie!

If it makes you feel better, the signal path from the turntable into the amp is all analog - is that right, @Nee Lewman? Room correction processing in the amp, and I assume it's not doing headphone correction/flattening as well, the headphone out is sans-processing?

Didn't know you had 2 more loaded arm wands! Amazing. You're all in.

As do I. Guttenberg gave it two thumbs up as well. The only downside is that it’s made you-know-where.

A fun flip, and a hell of a cover! Haha. Definitely noticing a difference in turntables this year - more direct drive in general, and more of that aesthetic for sure. Technics certainly seems to be driving the market now that they're firmly back in biz.

And I totally agree with this! So much in fact, that I went and played it on my StudioDeck with microline stylus, which tracked it MUCH better. Didn't skip once. However - further into the side it went, there was some audible distortion on the louder horn stabs, which honestly I have NEVER heard...

Yep, this exactly. Summed it up more eloquently than I could!

Dreadful here! I do wonder if it just depends on where in the stamper your copy ends up.

Many, many skipping grooves. Made it to about halfway through the second cut on side B and pulled the plug - I mean, lifted the arm!
