Description

I love diy. Made my own phone- loudspeaker - net cables in silver and carbon. The sound of horn and 300b love it.

Now I am tube rolling.

Since last I have made a Garrard 401 with a Schroder tonearm and a lot of tweaks. I dont belive how good this old girl sounds.

Lately I have made a tonearm that is an intermediate step between a Schroeder and a Well Tempered tonearm. Golf ball has a magnet on the underside life and are immersed in a jar with oil and a magnet. It plays great. Arm is made of a golf club.

I have actually had the pleasure of listening to this quite unique system. My overall thought was that there where limetless headroom combined with a huge soundstage.

One of the very very importent variables of any system is the acoustic properties of the room in which it's operating. Here Ole has made a enourmous effort and achieved what i would identify as the best listeningroom i have ever experienced. It's at the same time very fast, but not hard and short but not dull.

Best performance is with the turntable and 30 inch arm, but you have to filter out the analogue problems like "rummel" and noise, no problem it's very convincingly better and more interresting this way.

Ole, thak you for your time and good luck with your never ending quest of value for money!

Regards
Asger
