| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dgarretson, thanks, let us know how your hypothesis turns out. It would be interesting, in a different angle, if others with headshells of similar weight, but different composition would check your idea.I always thought the difference in sound fro... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dgarretson, Wondering what you thinking was regarding adopting removable headshells to what is now a fixed headshell? I had thought about doing something similar to allow for more tweaking with various headshells. The proper parallel setup could a... | |
| Why aren't current country albums on vinyl Don,t know if your'e a fan of Robert Earl Keen, but I picked up a couple of his newer recordings used a while back which I enjoyed. Not his best, but I find myself listening to them often.You need to be a fan though. REK's voice is not for everyon... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Tom (Timeltel), the GarrottP77 and both the GraceF8 and F9 are incompatible. The F9 shank is round and the F8 and Garrott being diamond shaped. The F8 is smaller than the Garrott.They maybe could be made to work with a little modification, b... | |
| MM Phono Input impedance change 47k to 100k ohms Hello Hifitime, They still have a bright unnatural characteristic, that is harsh and poor, on a well balanced system. With all due respect,that doesn't sound like an Empire 4000dlll or an Empire 1000ze/x but as you said " plus there's personal tas... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Mike(Stltrains), was the P100le worth all the trouble? How does it sound? While we trust Raul's ear's, it would be nice to get another viewpoint on these cartridges most of us will never hear.When you get a chance , of course.Thanks,Danny | |
| Empire EDR9 users: Need advice Hello Pani, Is the Empire EDR9 sounding better, or still closed in? I have not heard that particular Empire. Another very good Empire is the 1000ze/x. I got mine for around $150 from a Balkan friend ;^) . The Empire 4000dlll can be found every now... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Agree with Lewm, something fishy about that. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Nikola, It is just sales talk to me. It is so hard not to cross the line from fact to BS, so I guess I would cut him some slack. A salesman would not be able to use personal charisma on the net so it looks more like bragging.BTW, if he is as... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thanks Henry for the "missing link "post. There is a lot of information to digest in that post, both technical and emotional. Sometimes more is said in a few paragraphs than a whole book.Breaking the Grace F8/F9 comparison to listen to the Garrott... | |
