Analog Corner #278: Swedish Analog Technology LM-09 lima, DS Audio Master1 pahu pahu puka

I kēia mau lā, i ka wā i hoʻolaha ai ʻo Mark Gomez, ke poʻo o Swedish Analog Technologies (SAT, footnote 1), i ʻelua mau pūlima hou e pani ai i kāna lima SAT mua, ua huhū a hoʻopunipuni kekahi poʻe heluhelu: "No ke aha ʻo ia i hana hewa ai?pākahi?"
Hoʻololi nā huahana i ka manawa a laila hoʻokuʻu ʻia ma ka papa manawa (ʻo nā kaʻa i ka hāʻule), a i ʻole ka manaʻo o nā mea hoʻolālā ua "mākaukau" lākou - nā ʻōlelo weliweli no ka mea ʻaʻole i manaʻo kekahi poʻe moeʻuhane.i kā lākou lehulehu, a i ʻole e hoʻokuʻu iā V2 i hoʻokahi mahina ma hope o V1, e hōʻailona i ka mea kūʻai aku ma mua o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i nā hoʻomaikaʻi a me nā hoʻomaikaʻi e kūkulu ʻia i ka manawa, a hoʻokuʻu iā V2 i hoʻokahi makahiki a ʻelua paha.
ʻO ka SAT, ʻo ka tonearm aʻu i nānā ai, aloha ʻia, a kūʻai mai ʻaʻole i kū koke mai i kona ʻano hope.Ua hōʻike mai ʻo Gomez iaʻu i kahi mana mua ma High End ma Munich a i hoʻokahi makahiki i hala ua mākaukau ʻo ia e hoʻouna mai iaʻu i kahi loiloi.Ma hope o ka hoʻopuka ʻia ʻana o ka manaʻo, ma ka Helu 1 Iulai 2015, i koʻu kahaha ua loaʻa iaʻu kahi loiloi mua mai 2013 ma ka pūnaewele e pili ana i kahi lima SAT ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī i hana ʻia me ka fiber carbon, me ka bracket bearing.(Ma kaʻu pūʻulu loiloi, ua hana ʻia ke kuʻekuʻe wāwae i ke kila kila.) I kēlā manawa, hana ʻo Gomez i nā SAT maʻamau, ʻaʻole naʻe kaʻu e kapa ai he mea hana.
I koʻu nānā ʻana i ka lima SAT, he $28,000.ʻOiai ke kumukūʻai kiʻekiʻe, i hoʻomau i ka piʻi ʻana o ka manawa, ua kūʻai aku ʻo Gomez ma kahi o 70 mau mea kaua SAT ma mua o ka hoʻōki ʻana i ka hana.ʻO ka "lima maikaʻi loa ma ka honua?"e like me ka ʻōlelo a ke poʻo o kēia kolamu?He mea nui ka māka nīnau: pehea wau e ʻike ai ʻo ia ka "maikaʻi"?ʻAʻole au i lohe i nā mea hakakā ʻē aʻe me Vertere Acoustics Reference a me Acoustical Systems Axiom).
Ma hope o ka paʻi ʻia ʻana o ka loiloi a hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka lepo, ua loaʻa iaʻu nā leka he nui mai ka poʻe heluhelu i kūʻai i ka lima ma muli o kaʻu loiloi.ʻO ko lākou hauʻoli a me ka hauʻoli mau nō ia, he mea hōʻoluʻolu iaʻu.ʻAʻohe mea kūʻai i leka uila mai iaʻu e hoʻopiʻi e pili ana i ka SAT.
Ua aʻo ʻo Gomez i kekahi mau haʻawina koʻikoʻi i ka wā o ka hana ʻana i ka lima kumu, me ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻoiai ʻaʻole maikaʻi ʻo ia i hoʻopaʻa ʻia, loaʻa ka mea lawe moku i nā ala e wāwahi ai.Ua hana ʻo ia i kekahi mau hoʻololi hana i ka wā o ka hana ʻana, me ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i ka ʻōnaehana counterweight a hoʻopaʻa kaʻawale i ka bearing ākea kiʻekiʻe no ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i ke kahua e pale aku ai i ka pōʻino o ka vibration (ʻoiai ua haʻi mai ʻo Gomez iaʻu i hoʻokahi wale nō hana).ʻOi aku ka maʻalahi o ka ʻōlelo ʻana ma mua o ka hana ʻana: pono ia i kahi bracket bearing hou, ʻāpana ʻāpana a me kahi mea hana e hoʻouka pololei i nā bearings ma ke kula.
Akā ke hana nei ʻo ia i nā hoʻomaikaʻi ʻē aʻe i nā manawa āpau, no laila i ka hopena o ka makahiki i hala, ua hoʻopau ʻo Gomez i ka hana ʻana o ka lima SAT kumu a hoʻololi iā ia me ʻelua mau lima hou, kēlā me kēia 9″ a me 12″ lōʻihi.ʻO Gomez, ʻaʻole ia he potchkier (footnote 2), he kēkelē laeoʻo ma ka ʻepekema mechanical a me nā mea waiwai a ʻaʻole ia e hoʻihoʻi i kāna ʻōlelo ʻana, ʻo nā mea ʻē aʻe a pau e like, ʻo ka lima 9-inihi e hiki ai i ka penikala ke ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ke kani, e hana ana i ka leo maikaʻi.Nā hualoaʻa Ua ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka leo ma mua o 12-inihi turntables (footnote 3).Eia nō naʻe, pono i kekahi mau mea kūʻai aku he 12″ turntables, a ma kekahi mau hihia (e like me nā mauna hope no ka Air Force turntables), he 12″ turntable wale nō ka lawa.He aha?kūʻai i ʻelua mau mea kaua SAT?ʻAe.
ʻElua (a ʻehā) mau hiʻohiʻona hou ka LM-09 (a me LM-12) a me CF1-09 (a me CF1-12) i hōʻike ʻia ma aneʻi.ʻAʻole au e kāhea aku i $25,400 (LM-09) a i ʻole $29,000 (LM-12) tonearms "hiki ke kūʻai aku", akā ke noʻonoʻo nei i ke kūʻai aku ʻana o CF1-09 no $48,000, kūʻai aku ka CF1-12 i $53,000, a hauʻoli wau iā ia.Ke noʻonoʻo nei paha ʻoe, "ʻO ka hele ʻana mai ka hana ʻana i hoʻokahi lima a i ʻehā he loli nui ia no kahi hui kanaka hoʻokahi.Manaʻo nui paha ʻo Gomez i ka CF1 no laila ʻaʻole pono ʻo ia e hana nui a ʻaʻole paha.
ʻAʻole wau e manaʻoʻiʻo.Manaʻo wau ʻo ka mea hiki ke hoʻolilo i $ 30,000 ma ka tonearm hiki ke hoʻolilo i $ 50,000 inā hana nui a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi.(E ʻoluʻolu, mai kākau i nā leka “Keiki Pōloli”!)
Ua like loa nā lima SAT hou me nā SAT mua no ka mea ua like loa lākou: ua hoʻolālā maikaʻi ʻia ka lima kumu ponoʻī a hana maikaʻi ʻia.ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo nā levers 9 ″ hou nā mea pani no ka SAT kumu.
Ma ka hoʻolālā ʻana i kahi ʻōnaehana bearing ikaika ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka hoʻouna ʻana i ka pōʻino, hoʻomaikaʻi pū ʻo Gomez i ka hana ʻōnaehana ma o ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka ʻoʻoleʻa holoʻokoʻa a me ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka friction static i ka bearing.Ma nā levers hou ʻelua, ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ka lāʻau e kākoʻo ana i nā bearings kūwaho.
Hōʻike ʻia nā lima hou i hoʻolālā hou ʻia i ke kalapona kalapona a me nā hale poʻo hiki ke wehe ʻia i aluminika i ʻokoʻa no kēlā me kēia lima, me ka ʻoi aku o ka ʻoi aku ka ʻoi aku o ka ʻoi aku ka ʻoi aku o ka ʻoi aku o ka ʻoi aku o ka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻololi ʻana i ka azimuth.He mea hou nō hoʻi nā hoʻopaʻa lima.Ua nalowale nā ​​polimer bushings o nā paipu lima mua, a ʻike ʻia ke kaula kalapona ma lalo.ʻAʻole i wehewehe ʻo Gomez i ke kumu i hana ai ʻo ia, akā no ka mea hiki i ka lima ke waiho i nā hōʻailona maikaʻi ʻole i ka manawa - a i ʻole, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ke kani.ʻO kēlā me kēia ala, e hāʻawi i kēlā me kēia lima i kahi hiʻohiʻona kūʻokoʻa.
Hiki iā ʻoe ke aʻo hou e pili ana i ke ʻano mea kaua hou ma AnalogPlanet.com.Eia ka Gomez i haʻi mai iaʻu ma ka leka uila:
"ʻO ka pae hana o ka mea kaua hou ʻaʻole ia he pōʻino a i ʻole ka hopena o ka hana i hana ʻia no ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka hilinaʻi, akā ʻo ia ka hopena o ka hoʻomohala ʻana a me ka koi ʻana i hoʻohui pū ʻia me nā pahuhopu hilinaʻi kumu.
"Eia hou, makemake au e maopopo ʻaʻole wau e hoʻohaʻahaʻa i ka hana o kekahi kumu hoʻohālike i makemake ʻia i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe e kūpono i loko o ke kumu kūʻai / hana - ʻaʻole kēia koʻu ʻano a hiki ke hōʻoluʻolu iaʻu.Akā, ke hoʻāʻo nei au e ʻimi i kahi ala e hoʻomaikaʻi ai i ka hana o ke kumu hoʻohālike kiʻekiʻe.I kēia hihia, loaʻa i ka moʻo CF1 kahi kaulike kaulike o ka hana, ka hoʻokaʻawale a me ka hōʻailona kumukūʻai.
Hana ʻia ka LM-09 me ka hoʻohana ʻana i kahi ʻenehana hoʻomohala hou, haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa kahi i hana ʻia ai ka ʻauamo a me nā ʻāpana metala ʻē aʻe me ka alumini ma mua o ke kila kila e like me ka lever kumu.ʻO ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa paona e hoʻohālikelike i ka LM-09 me nā turntables outboard.
ʻO ka hoʻopili ʻana, ka helehelena a me ke kūpono e like me ka lima SAT kumu.He nani loa ka ʻili laulima o ka alumini.
He mau minuke wale nō ia e paʻi ai i loko a hoʻolohe i ke ʻano o ka hoʻololi ʻana i nā lima ma luna o kaʻu mea huli ʻo Continuum Caliburn a hana hou i nā hoʻonohonoho.Eia naʻe, e wehe i ka pale mai ka ʻaoʻao haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa, i ka wā o ka lawe ʻana, e hoʻokaʻawale i ka piko bearing mai ke kīʻaha sapphire, a hoʻololi i ke kīʻaha kīʻaha luna ma luna me ke kīʻaha o luna maoli, e hoʻoponopono iā ia ma ka piko a hoʻonohonoho i ka preload, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma ka mea kūʻai aku.Ua hana au i kēia, akā ʻaʻole maʻalahi.
Ua hoʻohana au i kahi Ortofon MC Century Moving Coil Cartridge aʻu i hoʻokomo ai no ka loiloi ʻana i ka pukana Sepatemaba 2018 a ʻike wau i ka pahu pahu ma ia manawa.Akā ma mua o kēlā, ua hoʻolohe au i ke mele poʻo inoa ʻo Davy Spillane "Atlantic Bridge" (LP, Tara 3019) a hoʻopaʻa iā ia ma 24bit/96kHz.Hōʻike ʻia ʻo Spillane ma ka ʻeke a me ka bass Willean, ʻo Bela Fleck ma ke kīkā acoustic a me ka banjo, ʻo Jerry Douglas ma Dobro, ʻo Eoghan O'Neill ma ke kīkā bass uila fretless, bodran Mustache Christy Moore, a pēlā aku. puunaueia ma ke kahua nui.Pono kekahi e hoʻopuka hou i kēia!
ʻO ka hui pū ʻana o ka SAT kumu a me ka Ortofon MC Century kekahi o nā reproductions maikaʻi loa o ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka makahiki 1987 aʻu i lohe ai, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka mana bass a me ka mana.Hoʻokomo au i kahi SAT LM-09 hou a pāʻani a hoʻopaʻa hou i ke mele.
Maopopo iaʻu kāu ʻōlelo.No ka waiho ʻana i kahi ʻano ʻē aʻe: "ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā suppressors LP kahiko ma mua o nā mea hou", a laila ʻae loa wau iā ʻoe.
ʻAe, haʻi mai koʻu mau pepeiao ʻeleʻele iaʻu he maikaʻi ke kani ʻana o nā paʻi pā kahiko kahiko i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā mea hou.
Manaʻo wau aia ka pilikia me ka haku hoʻopaʻa ʻana a ʻaʻole me ke kaomi ponoʻī.I ka wā ma mua, ʻo nā paipu hāmama wale nō ka mea uila i loaʻa, a i kēia manawa aia ka nui o nā ʻenehana kikohoʻe/paʻa paʻa i hoʻohana ʻia i ka mic/mixer/master recording.

E like me kaʻu i kākau ai ma ʻaneʻi ma ka Phono Forum, i koʻu hoʻokani mua ʻana i kahi moʻolelo o ka haku mele kahiko o Columbia University ʻo Richard Tucker me ka Vienna State Opera Orchestra ma lalo o Pierre Deveaux, ua hauʻoli loa wau.(1960s?) Ua noho maoli au i waenakonu o nā lālani 3 mua o ka hale o ke au (koʻu noho punahele: nā lālani 10-13 i waenakonu). ʻO ka hana kani ke ola, hāmama, ikaika a hoʻopili. ʻO ka hana kani ke ola, hāmama, ikaika a hoʻopili.ʻO ka hoʻokani kani ke ola, hāmama, ikaika a hoihoi.ʻO ka hoʻokō ʻana i ka leo olaola, hāmama, ikaika a hoihoi.Auwe!No ka laʻana, hīmeni ʻo Turner (hānau ʻia ma Brooklyn, New York) ma luna pono oʻu ma ka podium.ʻAʻole au i leʻaleʻa i ka pāʻani ola ma ka home e like me kēia ma mua.
