In this part we will focus on (in fact it is impossible) installing the head on the surface of tonearm. Correction angle can be calculated very accurately using formulas of either Byervold or Lofgren. The calculation technique is shown well on the pages of the Internet, for example here. But there is something missed there. Computational […]
In due time, the standards of essential dimensions of heads to the players were adopted. Mounting screws by standard can have threads M 2.5 and M 2.6. But, as well as in the case with the recording and playback curves RIAA, manufacturers of heads ignore the standards. For example: the length of the needle holder […]
Let’s consider a work of a tonearm, starting from the installation of the needle into the groove. The needle being in a spiral groove starts to move gradually toward the center of the record. The tonearm, due to the rest mass remains fixed until the groove through the needle, and the elastic element of cantilever […]
Indeed, the modulated groove record at high amplification even doesn’t look like a country road! Some standard limitations and comparisons lead to the same extreme conclusions. For example, let’s consider a situation when you received a record value of $500 and with the year of manufacture, for example, of 1953. The unit is one from […]
