Is there a reason beyond wonder lust? I have noticed a couple of members who have appeared to move on to other TT. For me this is likely my last analog system as when I downsize space will become an issue . May just stream and use headphones as my wife is always telling me to turn it down and that's when the system is in the basement . Funny how that goes as when I ask her for something she can be hard of hearing , but when I play the system its the opposite
It’s quite literally just my urge to tinker. I had the opportunity to pick up a Schiit Sol, which is a discontinued, weird, poorly supported, less refined, less livable table, but one I had always been interested in messing around with. Since I don’t have the space to keep both, I am hoping to send the MoFi to a good home. The Sol is a tinkerer’s dream, and, for the moment, I like that about it.
I understand that urge to tinker. It’s part of why I’m looking to upgrade now. My current DC Evo w/ Moonstone cart is working great and sounds good. I recently auditioned some preamps and decided to keep my current Project Phono Box S2 over the Tube Box S2 and ifi Zen Phono. The deciding factor was the Power Box S3 I picked up. The sound improvement to the Evo and the S2 from the power supply upgrade are very noticeable. Lower noise floor and records are more dynamic sounding.
Well, the MoFi is a great table. I think the MasterTracker is a fine pack-in, but you can do better. I personally enjoyed the SoundSmith Zephyr MIMC Star and the SAE 1000LT on mine very much. And absolutely no pressure or offense taken if you go some other direction, I just wanted you to know mine's available.
What did you do with your Zephyr? Is it on the Sol?
The SAE is on the Sol at the moment. I would probably be hot-swapping it with the Zephyr more often if it didn't require me opening up the 20/20 to change the gain and loading. Its time will come!
If you ever decide to unload the Zephyr... Lemme know.
I’ve also been curious about this as I have one but not sure where to place it on my studiodeck. Making my way through the thread now to see if you got any feedback on this.Has anyone used an Anti Static Brush like this one on their UltraDeck? I'm just wondering where I would place it since the belt drive is located where I would normally think to. Thank you.
I have a Dual 1246. I got it about 18 years ago. It arrived in an oversized box without any padding. It was seriously beat up, and with a lot of work, I got it playing nicely. After a time, too many things were not working anymore, and it was becoming a pain in the toosh. So that is when I got the StudioDeck. Even though there have been little issues (Kinderkrankheiten), I am indeed very pleased.
I suppose the dealer didn't reveal more. A refresh or a major change. Hmm...I am considering getting an UltraDeck as my main player and keeping the StudioDeck as a second player. What to do? Decisions, decisions.
I’d certainly expect the refreshed decks to be modestly better and modestly more expensive, but not dramatically different.
). Anyway, I haven‘t spun it yet as we also welcomed a new 1yo dog to the family so I’ve been a little distracted. I keep missing out on open box deals and MusicDirect additional open box discounts so I figure I better ask before the deals I see on ther now are gone. No offense taken. I ordered an open box UltraDeck w/ MasterTracker from Music Direct for $2400.
Not much more detail on model refresh. Spring will tell.
I do indeed! DM me if you’re lookin!
Done and done!
Congratulations , went it comes and you have spun let us know your impressions .
