Moving from MM to MC


I have a Shure M97x cart and it's been fantastic, but itching to test the waters with MC carts. What is the biggest thing I will notice once I switch?

BTW thinking of getting the Denon DL 103 for around $220. That a good bang for the buck under $300?

Moving to MC for cheap? My (much) younger (Slavic) brother

chakster is learning very fast. His (Raul's) ''learning curve'' must

beĀ  very high. Besides his memory is such that he even remember

that Denon ever produced an MM cart. Well he also mentioned

Denon DL-S1 cart. This cart is special designed for their very

successful AU-S1 SUT. I am not sure how much later. Anyway

this cart is even better than their DL 1000 . The only drawback

is its output: 0,15 mV. But the cart is perfect match for the AU-S1

not only qua impedance but also inductance. Inductance however

is seldom mentioned by carts and SUT's so how are we supposed

to combine them? I got the cart for less than $1000 and SUT

for about $1000. I am not aware of any combo regardless the

price that can compete with this one.
