Ron’s New System

[Ron Resnick]

From a sound point of view, I can recommend this Klei RCA plug copper silverplated. Low mass principle adds hardly any capacity to the cable. Unfortunately, you have to be careful when soldering as it doesn't release a lot of heat. It is best to plug it into a used cinch socket and solder it to prevent the contacts from deforming.View attachment 117276

Thank you, but I am not looking for connectors. I am happy Cardas can install a connector which contains no rhodium.

I recommend the ETI Kryo RCA plug. Tellurium copper with silver plating, no rhodium, low mass, excellent tonal balance and detail. With two retaining bolts, it also has secure cable connections and should be very reliable. I have tried many RCA plugs including the WBTs but the ETI Kryo is now my go-to choice. Available from Hifi Collective in the UK (with 3-day delivery to the US).

Thank you, but I am not looking for connectors. I am happy Cardas can install a connector which contains no rhodium.

I don't think that either model switches.

i am sure there was a switch. Not for the hybrid. I can’t exactly recall the details will have to look it up.

I can well believe Jadis installing such a function, however might the switch you recall have been a retro non factory installed mod.

If you like the KLEI, you should try the ETI Kryo. I have two identical cables, one with KLEI Absolute and one with Kyro, and I like the one with ETI Kryo much better.

Congrats on the acquisition of the Balance Ron, I've always believed that this table belongs in the top ten of all belt driven tables. At Danny's house, the Balance and the TD124 were consistently my favorite tables. What will be the second arm?

Thank you very much!

The second tonearm will be the Reed 5T.

Thank you very much!

The second tonearm will be the Reed 5T.

I hope he is also installing the Reed for you. The TT looks great with that base !

I hope he is also installing the Reed for you.

No; only Graham

The TT looks great with that base !

I think so too. The silver edge strip is a special order item.

Cool. I saw that you sold the 3012R on US Audiomart. The Reed will be interesting.

Ron, as usual you are doing it right! Besides being a delightful human, J.R. is a true professional and incredibly passionate about the medium we love. I can't wait to hear your system post JR set up.
