Graphite can be softer than Tin Lead solder.
the coating avoids desintegration = good.

(the loudest) and that seems "better" but when its compared against others, at same RMS level, like for example: vs. Audio-Technica AT150MLX (a very quiet cartridge). they sound...

lab made diamonds are yellow, anyway... the new v3 stylus with jewelry grade diamond does sound much better than older stylus.

Spherical v3 sounds better than older Eliptical stylus.

The results have been surprising to say the least. The first cuts were of a musical selection. do you have the links ? Please use the search feature of the forum. Look for Vinylium vs. Vinyl Recorder. You'll find them as well as a lot of good back and forth banter. found the thread but most files a...

Why bother being the best? or the fastest? the Strongest? or the most precise?

How about re-encoding your video in a common codec. To expect people load software or codecs to play a video is not cool. Not going to happen. Even just uploading to You Tube would work.... TSCC is the best codec for Screen Capture video. other files would be larger... or less quality. its a real 3...

Hi, I really don't get why you are so concered with absolute pitch accuracy. Its really hard to design a crystal oscillator that is off much more than .1%. If the motor speed is controlled by a quartz locked oscillator, than I think you are good. If you need better accuracy, then buy or rent a high...

i have a few concerns on your method: 1. The Ultimate Analogue Test LP is also just a record that was cut on a lathe, and so you have all the wow/flutter of it in your results. Further it is only usable for playback, but the more interesting thing would be cutting, since the cutting process will pr...
