His outfit is top flight and he does this on his time. My early work with him was to define every aspect of the material, hardness, mass, and then start work on how to keep the stylus planted into the grooves.What started me on this was reading Mosin's information on the Unitrac Magnepan arm.
Basically its designer was trying to create infinite mass at the headshell and the least possible effective mass for the tonearm. That way the cartridge sees a brick wall so only the suspension of the cantelever is doing its dance.
I would say it is extremely effective. When I first mounted the Grado on the arm I was immediately taken by how much more detail and bass I was hearing. Like focusing a lens on an SLR camera. Everything just sounded more lifelike and natural.
I just worry that Alias will point me in a direction but the sound may or may not be better. If the sound does not beat the Unitrac then I quit my tonearm project. I would rather spend time listening.
While my friends analysis is really awesome it is totally theoretical and just flat out fun. We are running an analysis of 60 hz bass gitar riffs and 350 hz female vocal belts. So far the women are harder to track.....what does that mean?
