| ADC 26 BEST PRITCHARD CARTRIDGE EVER? or BEST CARTRIDGE EVER? @lewm Chakster uses a Reed 3P tonearm, 12 inches in length, made of Cocobolo. He has apparently mounted more than one high compliance cartridge on that tonearm which would have an effective mass at least equal to that of an FR 64S, or maybe even ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @pryso If anyone here has major issues with Raul then why are you reading and replying to this site? He doesn’t own this site or this thread.

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Instead of private emails that you guys are posting here for some reason i can only clarify something about regular posts on audiogon with disinformation regarding PayPal, because i am a PayPal user and i know very well how it works. This is Ameri... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @dimitry So the way it works, is when a new person comes on the forum, Raul, you praise their system and offer them attention, so they are pleased that the "guru" has bestowed his approval.Then you reach out to them privately, offering cartridge... | |

| Does removing anti-skating really improve sound? @lewm Chakster, probably you shouldn’t disseminate the idea that VTF should equal AS. .... But read Doug Deacon’s old thread on AS with Triplanar tonearm. This is not my full post, as i said there is a special Test Record to set up anti-skating ... | |
| Entry level turntable for my son DJing is not about "RAP" at all, real DJs play vinyl, most of them are serious record collectors of many genres of music, including live music , good music (original pressings). Our sleepwalker65 have to talk to psychologist to find out why he has... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @lewm I guess others have had better experiences being "protected" by Paypal.You don't have to use a credit card or bank account linked to paypal if you don't want it to be linked. Or you can link and delete it after. Most of my friends who sell... | |
