anyone?
is an ortofon mc-3 turbo too light for traveler?
According to specs from ortofon and vpi, I get the following:
Resonance Calculator
Arm Effective Mass: 12.1 g
Cartridge Mass: 4.1 g
Fastener Mass: 2 g
* Compliance: 13 x 10-6 cm/dyne
Resonant Frequency: 10.34 Hz
This puts me in the desired 9 - 12 Hz res freq range without having to go crazy on the fastener weight. As you can see, the ortfon mc-3 turbo is a pretty light cart that tracks at 2 grams.
Hopefully this would be a good match. It sounds good on my Xpression III that has a 8.7 g arm effective mass. What does everyone think?
