how will the overhang of the well tempered simplex be adjusted?
Correctly so, because all it does is change the effective length by a mm or two. The change this makes to the geometry is tiny and anyone who thinks that they can measure cartridge alignment to this degree of precision is deluding themselves IMO.WTL's philosophy is that you don't need to worry about overhang as much as some think.
When you turn the vinyl record, do you turn the Well off?
Or does that work well with the platter running.....
I bought a DPS, planning to use it with both my Versalex and P75 mk 4. Although the outputs are labelled as 12v, they all measured around 20v on the one I tried. It killed my Versalex motor within an hour of use (coincidence - maybe?). Luckily I was warned not to use it with the P75 before I got round to connecting that as well. It may well have suffered the same fate.
I know its supposed to be all about the sound...... But look at the versalex..... Its £4k and just look at it.... Pride of ownership? Finely crafted? I think someone is having a laugh.
I'm certain it works well because many people with much turntable experience and good ears have bought one. But there's just no way I can see any value in the thing. The Rega RP10 is a grand cheaper on the HiFi Lounge site. Put them side by side. Which one cost more to make? Which one looks like its something worth having? Which one will last for decades?
It is similar to the Naim Aro in overhang adjustment, you get what you’re given.
Because it looks like someone's science project and the Rega P1 looks far better finished?
Read Supatrac’s post above on that…Great to see this thread ! This TT, esp the Simplex has something i have considered before but i wonder
What range of cartridges have people used, considering its a fixed headshell ? Is it limited in choice, like the Naim Aro ?
