| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice Chakster, isn't the generator in the body of the cartridge (which I have the 180)?Thanks | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice Chakster can I ask what the main sound differences were between the 150 and the 170. For example frequency extension, soundstaging, tone, imaging, smoothness, etc, etc.Thanks | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice Chakster, thanks for those images they are very interesting. I am guessing from those photos and the differences you have personally heard between 150 and 170, it all comes down to the mass and rigidity of the cantilever.I think it is this single ... | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice I think I may have answered my question. The only other components in the stylus holder apart from cantilever, stylus and suspension is the compliance adjustment screw and the suspension filament.Therefore the only difference I can see between the... | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice Thanks Raul for your helpful comments. Some very good things to consider.Can I ask a simple question. Apart from the cantilever, stylus and suspension what else is installed in the replacement stylus holder. Is there something electrical, or is al... | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice OK, as an update, I was fortunate to find a brand new ML150 stylus from Japan and it arrived today. After thorough inspection to check it was indeed brand new I fitted it to the ML180 body and installed it on the not so ideal Yamaha GT2000 tonearm... | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice It appears you can use the ML 150 on the ML 180. http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/re-tip-or-transplant-audio-technica-ml180-occ-w-broke... | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice What would be a better option.1) Use AT ML150 Stylus with gold plated berylium, or2) Have Expert Stylus or Garrott Bros install new Boron rod to existing Stylus assembly.I am thinking option 1 which may be considerably cheaper. | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice WOW, so many great responses. Thanks so much for all the information. I need to go through it all and digest.Based on the comments it sounds like the lighter weight tonearm would be the best, which is what I am good with. Also sounds like I need t... | |
| Audio Technica AT ML-180 Cartridge Advice Thanks Chakster that is very helpful. Would you suggest Boron cantilever? Also what diamond profile. | |
| I have a Grace F9 Ruby and Signet TK 10ML on the way Bimasta, that is very interesting that the Grace resembles the FR1 MK3F as this is my favorite cart out of all the carts I have owned. Lately i have been been using the SPU on the Yamaha GT2000 and the Shinon Boron Red on my Oracle Delphi. Just to... | |
| Linn Ittok vs SME 345 / 309 / V That's a great response Dover. I do feel that the Ittok and Shinon combo provides a very rock solid and deep bass that I have never experienced with other combos. I now feel that if put the Oracle on I may lose that slam factor and instead get a m... | |
| Who owns/owned a Fidelity Research FR1 MK3F & what is similar but better Hi unoear, I already have two FR1 MK3F's which are both in great condition and exceptional performers. Out of curiosity I recently bought a beautiful condition and rare Shinon Red Boron which is a Medium Output Moving Coil at 1.0mV. The reason I b... | |
| How to deal with a 1.0mV LOMC or is it HOMC Update !!! Cartridge arrived earlier in the week and I installed it through the SUT at 1:14 (23bB gain). Apart from having to reduce the volume knob from my usual level of -28dB to a lower level of -40dB, it all sounded great. I also checked with ... | |
| Shinon Red cartridge Hi all, I just bought one and I am waiting to receive it. My version is the 1.0mV and I was wondering how to load it into my MM stage. I have a great Audio Technica AT 700T step up transformer that has three settings, the lowest of which is 1:15. ... |
