Hi Eldartford,
you say:
>>> It is essential to remove sensitivity to vertical modulation by jumpering the two channels together, or using the MONO switch on your preamp (if it has one). <<<
Any idea at all, why when I use that 'summing' to mono on my ML326S (with phono) the level drops by at least 3dB? I seem to get rid of that "vertical noise" but also loose resolution (using a stereo MC).
as Samujohn says:
>>> Despite theory, I generally prefer the sound without engaging the mono button. <<< Could it be because of what I mention above?
I'm sure that the 'jumpering' must work as Eldartford
says, but brother ---- that's a pain, if you do not have a lot of MONO to listen to.
I have a suspicion that if the phasing L/R (due to stereo cart performance) is not at it's best, the summing will cause some signal cancellations and that would explain the drop in output level, correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks,
Axel
