Ron’s New System

[Ron Resnick]

Tinka and I love it, Jim! Thank you very, very much!

I had nothing to do with the design of the home theater, and I agreed with making it as simple as possible. I am not a videophile.

The Reed 5T tonearm has arrived.

 

[Ron Resnick]

Ruta sent me overnight a link to a new video which shows how to install and set-up the 5T. I think there might be less than half a dozen of these in the entire United States.

I know at least one reviewer (Michael) and at least one WBF member (Marty) who wishes this video had been available a few years ago.

 

[Hi-FiGuy]

Yes, exactly. Tinka wanted the home theater to be as empty of visible components as possible.

100% agree, hope to have pictures of ours in a couple months. I also do not like posters and stuff in the theater, you know like a real theater...

[Ron Resnick]

What color are you having it coated

Bengal Silver, a Tiger-Coatings color.

Thank you! It is a copy of a Chihuly.

I was going to ask the same question. I love the red color.

The room looks beautiful and relaxing.

I much appreciate the enthusiasm! J.R. can install the Graham and the ZYX at his convenience probably in the next couple of months, but I am going to wait for a 5T expert to do that installation late this year or sometime next year.

You must have the patience of Job! I watched the Reed video and it seems that installing the 5T is something a reasonably experienced guy should be able to handle. If I were you, I would set it up and try it out, then let your Reed expert tweak it for best sound.

Yeah, I agree… Why don’t you try your self Ron? It is not that hard at all. It is very fun and it is very educating. With all those ”christmas presents” I would for sure like to ”open” and setup them my self. Is there any reason for letting the setup work be done by somebody else but you? (Asked with all respect.. .)

Have you, yourself, installed a Reed 5T?

 

[Ron Resnick]

Is there any reason for letting the setup work be done by somebody else but you?

Yes; I want it done correctly, perfectly, professionally the first time.

Easy Ron!!

Even a girl can do the installation on the video

 

[Johan K]

No Ron, I have not, but I am quite confident I would manage with ease… as I like to take on such a task with the approach of NASA-standard… carefully and meticulously as if life was depending on it .

i do outdoors when I do 5k, whichbut was doing under 24 mins outdoors (under 22 indoors) but lately I have started doing zone 2 and VO2 max for cardio. Will check my improvement in 3 months to see if it works.

Zone 2 is very low intensity cardio, so difficult to do outdoors as even a slight uphill can make you cross the border to zone 3. It requires flat ground or steady state machine. 5k jogs were zone 4

VO2 max is 3 to 4 min sustained internal at almost max heart rate, 1:1 rest period, 4 times.

At the mo just testing out this split and its benefits.

Never mind...
