Albert Porter's SystemAlbert,My oil-damped stabilizer came with a small piece which fits into the spindle hole to 'grip' different spindle sizes. It does not have any threaded-ness to it, though, the spindle-hole it... posted over 12 years ago | View comment | |

Mike Lavigne's SystemThanks Mike. Great post there. I agree with your point likening distortion to noise floor. While not absolutely the same they share enough DNA to be family. Hope to have another update for you in a... posted almost 13 years ago | View comment | |

Something Old Something NewAs a dip-the-toes arm, the SAEC WE-308N is quite nice. The prized one is the SX. The long one is also decent. All of them require a little jiggering of the cart in the headshell but your pod system... posted almost 13 years ago | View comment | |
Something Old Something NewThe SAEC 407/23 is also a great arm. I find it more 'delicate' than the 308N. But I have to agree with you in any case that the SAEC arms look the cat's pajamas. posted almost 13 years ago | View comment | |

Albert Porter's SystemAlbert,A couple of months have passed since you put the SkipJack in the system. Any thoughts in particular? Is it transparent enough a switch to live in a great system? posted over 13 years ago | View comment | |
