An interesting question. What kind achievement one can expect from a person who claims that Schroder Tonearms are distinct by the Mark of Devil due to their association with Jonathan Weiss? If I have some kind of idiotic delusion and would tell story...

Paull, the horns might be “beautiful” but only themselves. When they are jointed with the rest Macondo spherical chennals then I do not like how it all looks together. Regarding the drivers, I do have a few options, I might slowly exercise them and ...

Stitch,
You outlined very nicely the pattern that exists with quite many products in audio, I call it Whorish Fear Marketing I can’t say that the same happens with Schroeder arms. I just do not know as I never paid any attention to those arms...

I hate to provide what the audio people call “equipment recommendations”. Whoever has sent me private emails asking me about buying or trying one of another audio component know that I usually suggest do not bother me or propose to them going to hell...

Rakesh, the subject of Jonathan Weiss is not worth for me to argue it. I too much know on the Weiss to have an interest about it. All that I will say to finish it that the asshole was spending days and night reading my site, stealing positions and vi...

Frank, I do not see a reason to argue arms. I am not on a market for arm and I am comfortable with the sound I am getting from two of my six arms. I have no motivations or needs to look for other arms. Thankfully I am not in business to sell audi...

Which RCA driver you use? RCA had a few drivers the pre and after war. I am familiar with a few after war drivers that I tried in my 330Hz horn and I was not impressed. Reportedly the pre-war MI-1428B shall be the one to play with; I did not have thi...

It was The Rocky Mountain Audio Show a few days back and I LOVE it. The best things about the show that I wasn’t there, thanks, thanks, thanks, God!!!

Rakesh, I perfectly agree what you say and I am glad that others understand that it is not about tonearms but people. Frank with his tonearms might be untended victim of his chooses but it is what it is. I very much know and understand what I say and...

Hi Romy,
It was good to finally meet you at CES at the Cogent Room. I guess that you really found Steve and Rich's drivers pretty interesting (you initially wanted to buy a pair of the midrange drivers, remember?) It would seem from all the activi...
