MM Cartridge or MC Cartridge Yoo-hoo Handyman. You still here? Decided on what you're going to do yet? | |
MM Cartridge or MC Cartridge Since your PH3 is suitable for phono cartridges having .25 mV output or higher, I would recommend a MC cart in the .25 to .50 mv range. Don't know your tonearm so I withhold recommending a specific cart. Search the archives if you're interested in... | |
are all used LPs dusty? A record cleaning regime, as uru975 put it, is essential. | |
