Addition. I forget to comment on Bimasta's sarcastic remark
about my contributions. The solution is very easy but you obviously
overlooked this possibility also. You only need to skip my
contributions.
Would you use an Ortofon A90 on a Jelco tonearm?
Huge apologies Nandric! I love your contributions, and your sly worldly humor. I meant it when I wrote "I always enjoy your answers," I always look for them, knowing both that I'll learn something and have fun reading it. What did I say that caused you to think I was being sarcastic? Please point it out to me, and I'll have that part of my brain removed. |
Dear @pani : First Ortofon is not the only alternative for you. van den Hul Colibri is an exceptional performer and Shelter 9000 or its Accord are really good. I like Ortofon a lot and I fall in love with when owned the MC 2000, from there I owned and listen almost all the top Ortofon cartridges. As fact the 7500 that owns lewm I was the original owner. Now, Jelco is a good tonearm but top cartridges deserves top tonearms that been very well damped, with top internal wire quality, user friendly and with all the facilities for the cartridge set up parameters. My advise is to change the Jelco too. Btw and about the re-tipping subject no one can make at first rate quality the re-tipping as the original manufacturer. @wrm57 talking of Soundsmith: """ The only difference is that I now keep the arm parallel rather than significantly raised in the back, so he might have changed the SRA from factory. """:: the true Replicant 100 cartridge stylus just never changed in its shape for the owners needs to make a new SRA set up. Ortofon is very clear about. In the other side wrm57 losted the opportunity that with the Ortofon retipping puts his sample with Ortofon up-dates that only Ortofon knows ! ! ! Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS, R. |
Which sut, headamp or phono stage do you use with MC2000, Lew ? And which tonearm ? My ortofon MC200 is here in the box. |
