| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Says Thuchan:+++ No - there is no sex after marriage. +++Such a comforting thought (to some of us...?)And Raul,Dear Thuchan: +++++ "we should also keep in mind that for three overprized cheap vintages... +++Oh hell? So just go easy on the diamonds... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Timtel, +++ Vive la différence! +++ hey.You're one funny and most enjoyable "dude". And thanks for that "chic" complement, um. Seems you know me better then expected, hallo! Long distance intuition? OK we all know Raul's "the man" no surprises her... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? +++ Why then they [women] decided not participate on audio forums like Agon one?, especially that they have better " ears " ( frequency response range. ) than almost all of us. I think because they are on every day more creative and productive " w... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi guys,have been reading on and on about the bickering and also some, in deed, of more general interest? :-) With so much other stuff out on the web and I still keep looking into my favoured audio-thread almost daily. Yes, no BS.Alas due to perso... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,interesting notion glueing in MM/MI styli... The ONE! you missed in the fixed list is the MP-50 which is screwed in from both sides, hm. I'd be loath to glue it on top of it! I do recall hearing the Shure V15 III glued-in giving a ~ bett... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,as to the 1080LT play-in time I have no exact information, other than the person had given it "a good try" comparable with his other tests. It would support (along the line of common sense) that if a cart is lacking in "realness" / "life... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul,what you find about the 1080LT sounds exactly like my "Malaysia" source feedback. I had mentioned it before (but got the 1080LT twisted into a 1018..)Question: Would that make for a similar performance compared to the MP-50? It sure sounds li... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm,yet I guess you just did aspired "higher" anyway, no one seems guilty of prolonging the argument. "All is for the best in the best of worlds" aye.Now let's see what master Raul with come up with next for us :-)A. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm,Pas du tout! De rien!Wasn't it a scientific “truth” that: "the exception confirmes the rule"The other item comes to mind: "It is a sign of higher intellect not to continue with an argument..." O.W.(How nice to know we so many highly intellige... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm,1) If you want more "air" = less roll-off, best use higher load with MM/MI. (Any added C tends to do more harm then help).2) Those "recommended" ~higher C (250pF - 450pF) for MM/MI was *never* meant to "roll it off"! MM/MI roll-off is already... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Is anyone actually reading the Pioneer statement provided by Timetel?It is the different resonance behaviour between MM/MI and MC that causes this different behaviour. There are multitudes of graphs on the web to document this.To consider the C's ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Well, thanks Timtel, you put it pretty well and with regards to Lewm's question in deed (I hope he can agree by now!)I also go along with Raul's tonearm/head-shell related experience. In the SME V this M20E is just the most "balanced", "integrated... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm,you got the Porscheee, and the Merc - it's just a question of the best tyres, hm.BTW, there is a re-vamp version for 1/2 price for that M20E stylus at LP-Gear. I got mine in the Ortofon original package (by that german source) and that is $99... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm,Raul is absolutely correct in what he states - but of course for MM only! As far as MCs are concerened it is the other way 'round and follows your argument.AxelPS: The clue is the *much* higher impedance of MMs. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? OK, M20E super will have to stay as it looks like right now, wow! It is better then my MP-50! (less "mechanical" Raul would agree, I guess) and better than FL AND ZE/X (more "dynamic" Raul would not necessarily agree, I guess).So Lewm, 99.99 bucks... |
