Analog Corner #278: Swedish Analog Technology LM-09 caj npab, DS Audio Master1 optical cartridge

Tsis ntev los no, thaum Mark Gomez, tus thawj coj ntawm Swedish Analog Technologies (SAT, footnote 1), tshaj tawm ob lub suab nrov tshiab los hloov nws caj npab SAT qub, qee cov neeg nyeem tau npau taws lossis dag: "Vim li cas nws ua tsis yog?ib zaug?”
Cov khoom lag luam hloov zuj zus mus rau lub sijhawm thiab tom qab ntawd tso tawm raws li lub sijhawm (tsheb yuav nyob rau lub caij nplooj zeeg), lossis thaum cov neeg tsim qauv xav tias lawv "npaj" - cov lus txaus ntshai vim qee tus npau suav tsis tau xav tias lawv yog.rau lawv cov pej xeem, los yog tso V2 ib hlis tom qab V1, tag cov neeg siv khoom es tsis txhob cia kev txhim kho thiab kev txhim kho txhim kho lub sijhawm, thiab tso V2 hauv ib xyoos lossis ob xyoos.
Raws li rau SAT, tonearm kuv tshuaj xyuas, poob rau hauv kev hlub nrog, thiab yuav tsis tam sim ntawd tshwm sim hauv nws daim ntawv kawg.Gomez tau qhia kuv txog qhov ntxov ntxov ntawm High End hauv Munich thiab ib xyoos dhau los nws tau npaj xa tuaj rau kuv tshuaj xyuas.Tom qab cov lus tau tshaj tawm, hauv Is Taws Nem 1 Lub Xya Hli 2015, ua rau kuv xav tsis thoob kuv pom qhov kev tshuaj xyuas ua ntej los ntawm 2013 hauv online txog ntau qhov nyuaj SAT caj npab ua tag nrho ntawm carbon fiber, nrog rau cov kabmob bracket.(Nyob rau hauv kuv lub tsev tshuaj ntsuam xyuas, lub bearing bracket yog ua los ntawm stainless hlau.) Thaum lub sij hawm, Gomez tsuas yog ua kev cai SATs, tseem tsis tau li cas kuv yuav hu rau ib tug chaw tsim tshuaj paus.
Thaum kuv saib SAT txhais tes, nws muaj nqis txog $28,000.Txawm hais tias tus nqi siab, uas txuas ntxiv nce mus rau lub sijhawm, Gomez nws thiaj li muag txog 70 SAT riam phom ua ntej tso tseg.Puas yog "Lub Cev Zoo Tshaj Plaws hauv Ntiaj Teb?"raws li lub npe ntawm kab lus no?Lo lus nug cim tseem ceeb: ua li cas kuv thiaj paub tias nws yog "zoo tshaj"?Kuv tsis tau hnov ​​​​txog lwm tus neeg sib tw nrog rau Vertere Acoustics Reference thiab Acoustical Systems Axiom).
Tom qab kev tshuaj xyuas tau tshaj tawm thiab cov plua plav tawm, kuv tau txais ntau cov lus los ntawm cov neeg nyeem uas nyuam qhuav yuav ib txhais tes raws li kuv kev tshuaj xyuas.Lawv qhov kev txaus siab thiab kev txaus siab tsis tu ncua, uas yog ib qho kev nplij siab rau kuv.Tsis muaj tus neeg siv khoom tau xa email rau kuv los yws txog SAT.
Gomez tau kawm qee cov lus qhia nyuaj thaum tsim cov thawj tes, suav nrog qhov tseeb tias txawm tias nws ua tib zoo ntim nws li cas, tus neeg xa khoom nrhiav txoj hauv kev los rhuav tshem nws.Nws tau ua qee qhov kev hloov pauv thaum lub sijhawm tsim khoom, suav nrog kev ua kom zoo dua qhov ntsuas qhov hnyav thiab cais ntim cov kab rov tav sab saud rau kev teeb tsa kom tsis txhob muaj kev puas tsuaj (txawm tias Gomez qhia kuv qhov no tsuas yog tshwm sim ib zaug xwb).Cov yav tas yog yooj yim hais dua li ua: nws yuav tsum tau ib tug tshiab, ib feem cais bearing bracket thiab ib lub cuab tam kom raug preload bearings nyob rau hauv lub teb.
Tab sis nws tau ua lwm yam kev txhim kho txhua lub sijhawm, yog li xyoo tas los no, Gomez tau txiav cov khoom qub SAT caj npab thiab hloov nws nrog ob txhais caj npab tshiab, txhua 9 "thiab 12" ntev.Gomez, tsis yog potchkier (footnote 2), muaj kev kawm tiav qib siab hauv kev siv tshuab thiab cov ntaub ntawv tshawb fawb thiab tsis thim rov qab nws qhov kev thov tias, txhua yam sib npaug, 9-nti caj npab tso cai rau lub stylus coj tus cwj pwm zoo dua, ua suab zoo dua.Cov txiaj ntsig Suab zoo dua li 12-nti turntables (cov lus hauv qab 3).Txawm li cas los xij, qee cov neeg siv khoom xav tau 12 ″ turntables, thiab qee qhov (xws li lub nraub qaum rau Air Force turntables), tsuas yog 12 ″ turntable txaus.Dab tsi?yuav ob SAT riam phom?Yog lawm.
Ob (lossis plaub) qauv tshiab yog LM-09 (thiab LM-12) thiab CF1-09 (thiab CF1-12) qhia ntawm no.Kuv ntxub hu rau $25,400 (LM-09) lossis $29,000 (LM-12) tonearms "muaj nqis", tab sis xav txog CF1-09 muag rau $ 48,000, CF1-12 muag rau $ 53,000, thiab kuv zoo siab nrog nws.Tej zaum koj tab tom xav, "Mus los ntawm kev tsim ib caj npab mus rau plaub yog kev hloov pauv loj rau ib lub tuam txhab ib tug txiv neej.Tej zaum Gomez muaj nuj nqis CF1 heev uas nws tsis tas yuav ua ntau lossis tsis muaj nws. "
Kuv yuav tsis suav rau nws.Kuv paub tseeb tias leej twg tuaj yeem them $ 30,000 ntawm lub suab nrov kuj tuaj yeem siv $ 50,000 yog tias nws ua tau zoo thiab tseem zoo dua.(Thov tsis txhob sau cov ntawv "Hungry Child"!)
Tus tshiab SAT txhais tes zoo ib yam li thawj SATs vim tias lawv zoo sib xws: tus thawj txhais tes nws tus kheej yog tsim tau zoo thiab ua tau zoo.Qhov tseeb, ob qho tib si tshiab 9 ″ levers yog hloov rau thawj SAT.
Los ntawm kev tsim cov kabmob muaj zog uas tsis tshua muaj kev puas tsuaj rau kev thauj mus los, Gomez kuj tseem txhim kho kev ua haujlwm zoo los ntawm kev ua kom nruj tag nrho thiab txo cov kev sib txhuam zoo li qub hauv cov kabmob.Nyob rau hauv ob qho tib si tshiab levers, lub diav rawg txhawb nqa ntsug bearings tau ua loj dua.
Cov caj npab tshiab tau tsim kho dua tshiab cov pa roj carbon fiber ntau thiab aluminium detachable lub taub hau vaj tse uas txawv rau txhua sab caj npab, nrog kev sib koom ua ke ntau dua thiab ua haujlwm zoo dua rau kev hloov kho azimuth zoo dua.Cov armrests kuj yog tshiab.Cov polymer bushings ntawm thawj caj npab tubes ploj lawm, thiab cov pa roj carbon fiber hauv qab yog pom.Gomez tsis tau piav qhia tias yog vim li cas nws thiaj li ua nws, tab sis nws tuaj yeem yog vim lub armrest tuaj yeem tso cov cim tsis zoo nyob rau lub sijhawm - lossis, ntau dua, nws txhim kho lub suab.Txawm li cas los xij, nws yuav ua rau txhua tus tes zoo ib yam.
Koj tuaj yeem kawm paub ntxiv txog cov qauv riam phom tshiab ntawm AnalogPlanet.com.Nov yog qhov Gomez hais rau kuv hauv email:
"Qhov kev ua tau zoo ntawm cov riam phom tshiab tsis yog kev sib tsoo lossis cov khoom siv los ntawm kev ua haujlwm los txhim kho kev ntseeg tau, tab sis yog qhov tshwm sim ntawm kev txiav txim siab thiab xav tau kev txhim kho iteration uas seamlessly integrates nrog cov thawj kev ntseeg siab-tsim lub hom phiaj.
"Ib zaug ntxiv, kuv xav kom paub meej tias kuv tsis txhob txwm txo qis qhov kev ua tau zoo ntawm ib tus qauv hauv kev pom zoo rau lwm tus kom haum raws li tus nqi / kev ua tau zoo - qhov no tsis yog kuv tus qauv thiab yuav ua rau kuv tsis xis nyob.Hloov chaw, kuv tab tom sim nrhiav txoj hauv kev los txhim kho kev ua tau zoo ntawm cov qauv saum toj kawg nkaus.Hauv qhov no, CF1 series muaj qhov sib npaug ntawm kev ua tau zoo, tshwj xeeb thiab tus nqi tag.
LM-09 yog tsim los siv cov cuab yeej tsim tshiab, tus nqi qis uas tus quab thiab lwm yam hlau yog ua los ntawm txhuas es tsis txhob stainless hlau zoo li tus thawj qib.Qhov hnyav txo yuav tsum ua rau LM-09 ntau dua nrog cov turntables.
Ntim, tsos thiab haum yog tib yam li tus thawj SAT caj npab.Lub npoo du ntawm aluminium yog qhov txaus nyiam heev.
Nws tsuas yog siv ob peb feeb los qhib nws thiab mloog yuav ua li cas sib pauv tes ntawm kuv Continuum Caliburn turntable thiab rov tsim dua cov chaw.Txawm li cas los xij, tshem tawm cov ntaub thaiv npog los ntawm cov kabmob qis dua kab rov tav, thaum lub sijhawm thauj khoom, cais cov kabmob taub hau ntawm lub khob sapphire, thiab hloov lub khob ntim cov kabmob virtual nrog lub khob ntim cov kabmob tiag tiag, kho nws ntawm lub taub thiab teeb tsa lub preload, zoo tshaj plaws ntawm tus neeg muag khoom.Kuv tau ua qhov no, tab sis nws tsis yooj yim heev.
Kuv tau siv Ortofon MC Century Moving Coil Cartridge uas kuv tau teeb tsa los tshuaj xyuas thaum lub Cuaj Hlis 2018 qhov teeb meem thiab kuv paub cov cartridge zoo thaum ntawd.Tab sis ua ntej ntawd, kuv tau mloog Davy Spillane lub npe hu ua "Atlantic Choj" (LP, Tara 3019) thiab kaw nws hauv 24bit / 96kHz.Nws nta Spillane ntawm bagpipes thiab Willean ntses bass thaj tsam, Bela Fleck ntawm acoustic guitar thiab banjo, Jerry Douglas ntawm Dobro, Eoghan O'Neill ntawm fretless hluav taws xob ntses bass thaj tsam guitar, bodran Mustache Christy Moore, thiab lwm yam. Sau thiab ci ntsa iab sib xyaw ntawm Lansdowne Studios Studios muaj lub suab nrov zoo nkauj hauv Dublin, sib sib zog nqus suab paj nruag, suab paj nruag, suab paj nruag thiab suab paj nruag. - cov banjos tau raug xa tawm zoo kawg nkaus - thiab lwm yam kev ua suab nrov, txhua tus tau muab faib ua ntau theem loj.Ib tug yuav tsum repost qhov no!
Kev sib xyaw ua ke ntawm tus thawj SAT thiab Ortofon MC Century yog ib qho zoo tshaj plaws ntawm cov ntaub ntawv 1987 uas kuv tau hnov, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog hais txog lub zog bass thaj tsam thiab kev tswj hwm.Kuv muab tso rau ntawm SAT LM-09 tshiab thiab ua si thiab kaw cov kab rov tav dua.
Kuv nkag siab koj txhais li cas.Muab tso rau lwm txoj kev: "ntau tus qub LP suppressors suab zoo dua li ntau tus tshiab", ces kuv pom zoo nrog koj.
Yog lawm, kuv lub pob ntseg tarnished qhia kuv tias ntau lub qub phaj presses suab zoo zoo nkauj piv rau cov tshiab.
Kuv xav tias qhov teeb meem yog nrog tus tswv kaw thiab tsis nrog lub siab nws tus kheej.Yav dhau los, lub tshuab nqus tsev vacuum tsuas yog cov khoom siv hluav taws xob nkaus xwb, thiab tam sim no muaj ntau ntau ntawm cov cuab yeej digital / khoom siv hauv lub xeev siv hauv mic / mixer / master recording.
Sonically, Kuv pom cov suab paj nruag qub / mono classical suab paj nruag LPs kuv tau txais (qee 1,000+), cov laus suab zoo dua (ntawm xyoo 1960), hais txog OPENness, airy & lifelike. Sonically, Kuv pom cov suab paj nruag qub / mono classical suab paj nruag LPs kuv tau txais (qee 1,000+), cov laus suab zoo dua (ntawm xyoo 1960), hais txog OPENness, airy & lifelike.Hais txog lub suab, kuv pom cov qub stereo/mono cov ntaub ntawv ntawm classical music uas kuv muaj (txog 1000+) cov laus suab zoo dua (1960s era) hais txog OPENNESS, airiness thiab realism.Hais txog lub suab, kuv pom tias cov suab paj nruag qub / mono classical suab paj nruag kuv muaj (kwv yees 1000+) suab zoo dua rau cov qub (1960s) hais txog OPENNESS, airiness thiab realism. Tsis muaj ib qho ntawm kuv 30+ digital mastered LPs suab zoo, ib yam li kaw hauv ib lub thawv txawm tias lawv txhua tus suab meej, huv, punchy & digitally 'yog'. Tsis muaj ib qho ntawm kuv 30+ digital mastered LPs suab zoo, ib yam li kaw hauv ib lub thawv txawm tias lawv txhua tus suab meej, huv, punchy & digitally 'yog'.Tsis muaj ib qho ntawm kuv 30+ digitally mastered albums suab zoo li yog tias lawv tau ntim, txawm tias lawv txhua tus suab digitally meej, huv si, punchy thiab "yog".Tsis muaj ib qho ntawm kuv ntau tshaj 30 cov ntawv kaw lus digitally zoo li yog tias kuv nyob hauv lub thawv, txawm hais tias lawv txhua tus suab meej, huv si, punchy thiab digitally "yog".
Raws li kuv nyuam qhuav sau ntawm no ntawm Phono Forum, thaum kuv thawj zaug ua si cov ntaub ntawv ntawm Richard Tucker tus qub Columbia University masterpiece nrog Vienna State Opera Orchestra nyob rau hauv Pierre Deveaux, kuv zoo siab heev xav tsis thoob.(1960s?) Kuv yeej zaum hauv nruab nrab ntawm thawj 3 kab ntawm lub tsev era (Kuv nyiam lub rooj zaum: kab 10-13 hauv qhov chaw). Kev ua yeeb yam suab zoo li nyob, qhib, muaj zog & koom nrog. Kev ua yeeb yam suab zoo li nyob, qhib, muaj zog & koom nrog.Qhov kev ua yeeb yam suab nrov heev, qhib, muaj zog thiab zoo siab heev.Qhov kev ua yeeb yam suab nrov heev, qhib, muaj zog thiab zoo siab heev.Wow!Piv txwv li, Turner (yug hauv Brooklyn, New York) hu nkauj saum kuv ntawm lub podium.Kuv yeej tsis tau nyiam ua si nyob hauv tsev zoo li no ua ntej.
Kuv tsis tau yuav cov ntaub ntawv yas hauv ntau xyoo lawm, tab sis tseem kuv yuav tsum hais tias cov xovxwm qub yeej tsis zoo li ntawd.(Muaj, tau kawg, kev zam, uas yog tej zaum yog vim li cas cov qub HPs raug txwv rau Vintage Living Presence).
Mr. Qasim zoo li tau yuav lub tshuab luam ntawv uas twb muaj lawm thiab tab tom kho nws kom ntau li ntau tau.Nws muag nws cov ntaub ntawv yas tshiab rau $30 txog $100 txhua.
Vinyl tam sim no yog qhov nyiam nyiam kim heev!(Kuv xyoo 1980s Koetsus yeej tsis pheej yig, Ameslikas muag rau $1,000).
Kuv siv kuv lub pob ntseg thiab lub taub hau kom txaus siab rau cov yas tsis muaj kev puas tsuaj rau kuv tus account hauv txhab nyiaj!
