Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Timeltel, I really like both the Acutex 320 and 315. You described both well in past post.Not sure if I have a favorite. I found that as T_bone mentioned earlier the Technics U205llX's Jico SAS will work with the U205/3 and have been breaking that...

Hello Timeltel, I already have the Acutex LPM 320.The smoothest high end.I had been a little wary of playing much with replacement styli being difficult to obtain. I had used the 312 but as you have already mentioned it loses much of the magic of ...

Timeltel, I have been listening to the Signet MR 5.0 and it is better than I remembered. I had listened only briefly to it on main system. Had been used on old cheap Rotel turntable in old system. Sound is a little more HiFi than the Empires and O...
