| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @halcro So Chak,Are you saying that if one were to find an original Glanz 61 stylus assembly........one could put it in any of the other bodies (31L,51L,71L) and have the 'unobtainable' Glanz 61? I think so, but i've never ever seen a separate ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @halcro The 31L, the 51L and the 71L (which all sound virtually identical in my system) and the totally horrific M5 integrated headshell model are made by the same company as the MFG 61 and presumably are based on the same technology. Haha, tru... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @travbrow Great, congrats! I'm pretty sure you will be impressed, i hope you know that on ebay you're protected by "paypal buyer protection", even in the worst scenario (if the cart has any deffects) you can return it for full refund and it's guar... | |
| Fidelity Research 64s vs Jelco SA-750e @noromance The 64 is not a 66. Legacy reviews say the 64 is a little lacking in top end detail. The 850 is crystalline clear. This review is from 2010 and a plain BS in my opinion. The reviewer more concerned about awful SPU cartridges (the re... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? BTW has anyone measured the "terribel resonance" of the Orsonic AV-101 headshell, exept the Raul, who has his special hearing abilities with built-in resonance and distortion meter? How many people on audiogon does not like the Orsonic AV-101 ?May... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @travbrow I’ve read on another forum about this Glanz model, the owners are very satisfied highly praised the performance, but a little concerned that it’s a low rider, not being sure if that’s normal for these models? I asked the EBay seller how... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I sent an offer to the Japan seller of the Glanz MFG610, he wouldn’t agree. @travbrow his price for Glanz MFG-610LX is extremely low! This cartridge is based on my favorite Glanz MF-61 which was sold once for 1200 GBP on ebay (impossible to find... | |
| ADC 26 BEST PRITCHARD CARTRIDGE EVER? or BEST CARTRIDGE EVER? @nandric The mass of moving parts is obviously important because all cart producers try to reduce this mass .Lighter cantilever, micro ridge styli and low uitput coils with as little wire as possible are examples. This is actually the reason fo... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @slimpikins5 Just from everything I have read from people who have a lot more experience than I do, the Beryllium was the best material ever used for cantilever’s. I agree about Beryllium cantilever, i can’t hear any advantages of the Boron vs. B... | |
| ADC 26 BEST PRITCHARD CARTRIDGE EVER? or BEST CARTRIDGE EVER? Audiogon these days is like fake news sometimes. @adc-grace we need your clarification, because Grace deserve respect, do you own the original Grace F14 or LEVEL-2 models or you are comparing your $100-200 ADC 26 to F-9 with the stylus from F-14? ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? @lewm Cantilevers have been made from aluminum, aluminum alloys, boron both hollow and solid, beryllium, titanium, sapphire or ruby, and diamond. That’s a nearly complete list, unless you want to include carbon fiber and cactus. I would add my t... | |

| ADC 26 BEST PRITCHARD CARTRIDGE EVER? or BEST CARTRIDGE EVER? @adc-grace welcome on board Looking at your nickname i thought you’re specializing in Grace and ADC :) You’re right, the F14 and LEVEL II are the rarest Grace MM cartridges. The Asakura’s ONE is the rarest Grace LOMC (amazing cartridge). | |
