Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Harold-not-the-barrel, I picked up that Shure Ultra 500 that has been taunting me. How are you loading your Ultra 500. Have you tried the Jico stylus? I have tried the Shure 140he and thought it was good, but haven't listened in a while. Any thoug...

Congratulations Stltrains, the Signet Tk7lca is one of my favorites also. The AT 155lc stylus is very close in performance to the Tk7lca, but if you want to make it a bolder presentation, different not better, the At ML160 is real nice.Enjoy!

Analog_sa, sorry to hear about you're bearing problem. I have had no problem with my bearing, but your report is making me wonder about this table. I am surprised Gunther will even answer your email. Keep us informed of the progress, or lack of pr...
