Zero Distortion: Dalby Record Weight

You know the phrase "don't ask!"
Applicable here Lol.

It was a very simple question.

 

[spiritofmusic]

I believe in excess of $10k

the people want bread and circus, let them have it...

 

[spiritofmusic]

Ahem, no money left to visit the circus, and very little for bread, if you buy the Dalby.

you never really own a Dalby Record Weight, you are just the caretaker for the next generation.

Well... I listened to the older model D7 Dalby record weight on my Micro Seiki turntable. It's a 3.5 pound beast . It does some things a little better than my 1.5 Lbs. Stillpoints LP 1 record weight. Too bad the Dalby weight is 2.80 mm larger in diameter than the Stillpoints . Tonearm can crash against the outside at the end of the record grooves on some records. The Titanium Dalby weight outside diameter was even larger yet. I value my cartridge too much. I ended stacking 2 Stillpoints LP 1 on top of each other. It bettered the Dalby.

The dalby was substantially better than the still points, my friend who owned the SP bought the dalby after many compares. Didn't try with two SP, but did you try loosening the base? You can screw and unscrew it to adjust the Dalby as required.

Also we tried a different Dalby that didn't work at all. Each one is different

Does your MS have vacuum? It does not make much difference if the table has a vacuum and works negatively with suspension

RX-5000 no vacuum Gunmetal / Stainless Steel Platter. TMC Air Isolation stand. Sitting on a 450 LB. constrained layer top.

You are allowed a brief moment of grace in holding one before it is your time for *Carousel*
