You've run some pretty fancy MC's, but the _______ MM cartridge really impressed me

Dear @wrm57  : You are welcome.

Well Your ADC cartridge as other ADC models are really good and is  no MM design but Induced Magnet. ood for you.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,

@rauliruegas , yes, I saw "induced magnet" in the included lit but didn't know what it meant, figuring it was just marketing-speak for MM.

1) Micro Acoustics 630MP (an Electret not a MM but I think still meets the spirit of the thread)

2) Signet TK-7LCa

3) Empire 4000D/III

I sure miss the good old days learning from Raul, lewm, and nandric on Raul’s 1000 page MM thread…

I really like the AT VM540ML

gakerty, I love the 980LZS, too.  In my case, I have the 981LZS, one NOS and one used.  It is said that the 981 is a selected 980, but i doubt that makes any difference.
