Dear @terrible : No audiophile but the cartridge manufacturer really can tell you with the specific toold the true and real condition of a stylus tip.
The ones that think can do it are only dreaming with eyes opened.

A pitch too High!

Dear @terrible : " Next month I am planning to pull the trigger on SME 12A. " That is a great decision, you can't go wrong with. Very good turntable and very good tonearm and yes you can start with the Goldring cartridge selection.
Have fun and enjoy it.

@terrible : This should be my last post to you. First than all re-read my very first post to you in the page 1 and after that this: DOES NOT EXIST A MM TURNTABLE. EXIST JUST TURNTABLE ! ! What exist are different kind designs of cartridges and between others: MM, MI ( like your Grado. ) and LOMC ones. The advantage of your Grado MI cartridge and your electronics is that that MI design comes with an internal 40mH of inductance and this fact makes that load impedance does not affect its overall performance. You need to improve your knowledge levels because as I told you in one of my posts you show that as this thread go longer and longer by gentleman posts as more confused you are. R. |
@terrible : just forgeret about that " loading ". The person/man that posted knows nothing about. He loaded his Grado because the very low quality of the phono stage he used. Yours is way different. Btw, you are a beginner and through a thread and with the explanations of some really experts on the subject and wrong explanations fromm non-experts you will be more confused and probably you can't learn. R. |
Dear @terrible : What's really " terrible " is what those two gentlemans ( one applaud to the other. That one follower is @sandstone to atma. ) know nothing about Grado cartridges that is not MM but MI with very low inductance value around 40mH and what was posted certainly is totally false for your Grado cartridge. Go figure ! ! and are the " experts " here. "" used similar Grados, I've always had to load them to get the brightness gone. "" Fortunatelly for you OP your Boulder electronics is very good designs and your Grado resonance is around 60khz-70khz and not like the electronics used by atmasp...that needs that load. as stated ! ! ! . R. |
Dear @sandstone : I'm not denigrating nothing but posting facts. Do you know about Boulder electronics? I know in deep and know not only its price and that Grado cartridge is an entry level mated with non entry level system. Facts are facts. I don't accept that cartridge not even by free. Kudos to you by your low knowledge levels, at least what you showed in this thread and other threads. As I said : to each his own. R. |
Dear @terrible : I don't know how many LPs you own but I know is that that Grado is an entry level cartridge as it's that Clearaudio tonearm. Sooner or latter like today the problem comes out. If you want to be serious about LPs reproduction you need to be serious too in the level of your analog rig and most important than this is that you try to improve your very low/poor knowledge and skills levels to make your self the overall TT/cartridge/tonearm/phono stage set up. You have the " problem " you bougth it and nothing else. You can't ask oranges to a stone, rigth? R. |
