Sumiko Blackbird- very quiet black blackground, great dynamics, everything I've been looking for all these years.

VTA and Azimuth.
I am using Adjust+. It was very hard to find the right Azimuth because every 1/10 mm change everything. The Gold / Copper was much easier to adjust.
If everything is ok you will see deep into the record, better than as with the VDH Colibri Gold or Copper and the Instruments sounds very close to real.

Bluelectric Magic Diamond with ruby cantilever and line contact retip from Soundsmith. Setting azimuth with this stylus makes the difference between really good and great. I have also noticed that subtle adjustments to VTA produce changes more than the original stylus did.
Also use the Allnic Audio Puritas, and the Allnic Audio Verito Z

Denon DL103 in Goldenage Audio African black ebony body. For a £240 pounds GB and set up properly it's surprisingly good.
Nice to see another N.A. owner here. My Horizon SE doesn't quite match up, but I enjoy it regardless. Beautiful combo with that Origin Live and Ortofon!
Thanks for the nice comments on my rig! I'm surprised to have both of you comment on how nice it looks, since most people find the Nott's a bit industrial looking and not very pretty. I guess it's a look that only a true analog devote could love, but the sound of it really has a way of transporting the listener to the actual event.
Wow!!! There really is no end to the madness in this hobby/addiction. That is one stunning setup, enjoy the magic!
Sumiko Blackbird cartridge on a SME IV arm and Acoustic Signature Storm TT.
nice!
Very nice! I recall you posted about warped Classic Records 45 rpm vinyl, is the vacuum suction able to flatten them?
Christian, the outer ring clamp and record weight didn't flatten the records on your Clearaudio. My main complaint with the Classic Records are many of them aren't 12 inches and the ring clamp slips over the side.
They flattened mine quite well in combination with a record weight on the spindle. I have never had my TT weights ring slip over the side as you say.
