It is a problem for the Rega's because the moter is beneith the platter and the unsheilded cart would pick this up. With your moter being off to the side I see no problems. Great cart; I have one myself and love it. Mike
Compatability Issue or Not? Grado Sonata and MMF 7
I have a MMF-7 Turntable and I am thinking of buying a Grado Sonata cartridge. Currently I am using a Blue Point cartridge. I read somewhere where my turntable is susceptable to hum with this cartridge, like the Rega's are. When I mentioned this to the store which is trying to sell it, they said, "as long as you ground it, it will not hum". (I ground the MMF-7 to the back of my VITB phono amp)
However, because it is a cartridge I can not return it(I would hate to have buy a cartridge twice!). It is also used. I would like to know if anyone has any experience using the Grado Reference line with a MMF turntable.
Thanx in advance for your help, I really appreciate it!
