    The importance of measuring VTF at the right height when using the Kuzma 4-point etc

    Well 5g is the reference weight and is measures the Sam wherever I use it on the scale. 2.0 g is much less so I think is still accurate.

    I thought of that but it seemed a bit risky.

    The importance of measuring VTF at the right height when using the Kuzma 4-point etc

    At what height you measure VTF is very important, if you measure above the height of the record surface you will get the wrong VTF. On some balanced tone arms this isn’t a problem but with the 4-point the most of the arms mass is so above the record surface, that it’s what they call a negatively...

    Kuzma Stabi R compared to a Garrard 301/401??

    I really love StabiR had it for a couple of years. You can’t go wrong with it. Haven’t decided what sides I will use yet, I bought it without the metal sides because my intention was to let a carpenter make sides of some nice wood or perhaps make them in acrylic ore brass. Haven’t come around to...

    Kuzma Stabi R compared to a Garrard 301/401??

    I use the StabiR with the feet. I already had the feet when I bought the R. I used them with my StabiS. So I never compared with or without, and was to lazy to lift this heavy bugger to try. Anyway I did a while back and with the feet, sound is more detailed and relaxed, almost as a vail is...

    Kuzma cart differences: CAR30-40-50?

    To be fair I had this cart for many years and it is refurbished once, about two years ago, I have about 290h on it since. It was refurbished by Techne Audio in Germany.

    Kuzma cart differences: CAR30-40-50?

    I recomend CAR if you have a tonearm that can handle the weight. I have used Benz LP, Benz Glider, Benz ACE L, Hana Umami Blue, Scheu MC among others. I really love my CAR-30 and now I just recently sold of my spare Benz Glider and I’m ready to buy the next main cartridge for my StabiR/4-point...

    My (SMT) room

    Horns are very directive, so my major concern is the walls directly in front of me and behind me. There I have the Svanå Wing and S-wing. To dispatch energy both in direction and time domain. The Absorbents are from a Swedish company called Bullerbekämparen. They are very broad banded and takes...

    My (SMT) room

    If you mean my room? approx 7x6x3m I had a larger room once. That was 11x5x4m, huge.

    My (SMT) room

    Just for the record, it was the original LP, not the new LPS that I suspect is much better than the old one. Benz SLR are also a candidate for me in the future. I recently tried the Hana umami Blue at home.... rich in color but a bit dull compared to the CAR, except in the area that made steel...

    My (SMT) room

    Awsome!!! I also had a Benz LP (the old) and bought a CAR-30 that sounded more dramatic and better in the system I had back then. The Benz LP sounded more romantic or sophisticated, but the CAR-30 had both grunt dynamics, sweet top end yet detailed and fun. Since then my system has gone through...
