| =Objective vs. subjective information and "common knowledge"=
| |
| There is an utter dearth of information on this subject. This is kind of a big issue for an HA site entry, since most information out there is not that good, and runs contrary to the goals of the site.
| |
| | |
| However, such information should still be categorized. The fact of the matter is that a lot of it does make some engineering sense, and hardly anybody ignores it entirely, but a clear distinction should be made between the "common wisdom" of turntable design and performance, and the performance metrics that are measurable and objectively audible.

| These are things I feel should be elaborated in the text to make it more objective and measurable/audible. Reply here if you feel it should not be discussed.

| * What are the exact mastering differences between classic LPs and their contemporary remasters on CD? This has a big impact on the discussion of how "good" vinyl sounds. -[[User:Axon]] 21 April 2006

| * How can one measure the impact of the various components of a turntable, when upgraded? How can a plinth or a tonearm be objectively evaluated? -[[User:Axon]] 21 April 2006
| |
| * How much mechanical decoupling exists with a belt? Is there a definable transfer function between the vibrations at the motor axle and the vibrations at the platter? -[[User:Axon]] 21 April 2006
| |
| * Are all belt drive motors synchronous? I was under the impression that a large number of them were DC servo. -[[User:Axon]] 21 April 2006
| |
| * Many audiophiles believe the tonearm has an impact on the midrange/treble, but but the basic mechanical parameters (mass etc) cannot explain this. Materials might. Is there a objective metric for this? -[[User:Axon]] 21 April 2006

| * What are the exact issues with S-shaped tonearms? -[[User:Axon]] 21 April 2006
