First, define ' mid-fi '. Dual and Thorens are ' mid-fi '
when compared to a $4000 TT. There are a lot of people on this forum that compare the Jap stuff favorably to those two. I didn't
say he didn't mention DD; he did, and doesn't like them for the same reason half the inmates and the top end manufacturers don't;
motor noise. To say that there are DD tables that beat the three
Jap models mentioned is a broad statement; name a few, that's what this forum is about, right? And belittling someone who
spends 10-12 hours a day repairing everything from Mac to mish-mash
and for decades at that is pretty much self explanatory. Everyone has an opinion, and I value them all; there are a dozen cartridges and nearly as many arms discussed here, and if there was
a universally perfect solution, we could all find better thingsd to do. I take all opinions and weigh them and try to find an average
best solution to my price point. When I mentioned B&O to the tech,
that's where he went, opinions on mid-fi. I'll ask about the
idler thing when I see him next.Ron
