| New Gold Note PH 10 Price? Gulp, 6000 euros. Oops, i'm happy to stay with my PH-10 :) | |
| Audio Technica VM540ML v. N97xe Jico SAS I think I prefer more warmth (full velvety mid-range and solid bass with good dynamics) even if it means it's at the expense of just a tad of detail. Then why did you ordered the Nagaoka?You need Garrott P77i if you like what you described above. | |
| ADC 26 BEST PRITCHARD CARTRIDGE EVER? or BEST CARTRIDGE EVER? Even an Grace F-9 with F-14 MicroRidge stylus (much better than any F-9 original stylus) sounds different but not better. Because the F-9 signal generator is an old generation of Grace compared to the the High-End F-12 and F-14, you have to use y... | |
| New Gold Note PH 10 They are more concerned about capacitance options for MM than an additional 100K load option (which is not widely popular). There was an early bunch of PH-10, then the regular production (which i have, serial #58009) and then they blabling somethi... | |
| New Gold Note PH 10 Or perhaps I could use one of the loading resistors on the input RCA's which might do the same thing. No, you can't. But it depends. The reason i asked Joe to modify my JLTi phono stage with 500k Ohm internal resistor, so i can add any lover va... | |
| New Gold Note PH 10 I've mention At 20SLa just because it is the closest to your SS which must be better )never had that one). However, i have AT-ML180 OFC and OCC and both are fantastic with 100k Ohm. Grace F-14, Grace LEVEL II and Victor X-1II are superb at 100k Oh... | |
| New Gold Note PH 10 My ex Audio-Technica AT-20Sla impressed me with 100k Ohm load on this phonostage, at that time my main arm was a tube one. Now i have much better resolution with First Watt F2J power amp and Aleph L preamp. It's system dependent, you're right. But... | |
| New Gold Note PH 10 @slimpikins5 hey, i paid really great price for both PH-10 and PSU-10 buying them from official Italian dealer who does not charge VAT when exporting the items outside of EU, that was serious discount for a brand new units with warranty. I think ... | |
| Audio Technica VM540ML v. N97xe Jico SAS My sniff test? Everyone knows that XSV-3000 is exactly Stanton 881s.Never tried the XSV4000, but all 3 cartridges are very good in $300-400 range, but not top models from Stanton/Pickering. I am not a fan of Shure, but there is a Shure ULTRA-500 s... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear chakster, According to my information those Stereohedronstyli are produced by ''Expert stylus UK'' . Their own retip stylusis called ''Paratrace'' which I have in two of my carts. The priceis about 200 GBP. Their chief engineer has, like A... | |
| New Gold Note PH 10 I am using it with the Audio Technica AT20ss vintage MM cartridge which has an extraordinary frequency range of 5-50K hz, so I was able to take advantage of the Enhanced RIAA curve the PH 10 has. Very nice cartridge! However, i use my PH-10 w... | |
| Can you run the HANA SL MC at 100 ohms? then at 470 ohms with sut do you mean 47 000 ohm (47k Ohm) with SUT ? | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Just uploaded a nice picture of the Stereohedron stylus tip. Stanton's most advanced stylus: The Stereohedron has the advantage of long and narrow contact surfaces that allow it to track high frequency modulation while minimizing record wear. Th... | |
| Audio Technica VM540ML v. N97xe Jico SAS @stevecham As an owner and user of several Pickering, Stanton and Shure vintage cartridges from the 70s and 80s, plus a number of newer models from AT, Grado, Nagaoka and Ortofon, I will say that the current cartridges manufactured, especially th... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The LP gear selling a lot of replicas and also privides little info, many of their styli are blank without original cogo. I wouldn't buy anything from them, just sayin' A good vintage MM carts must have an original (genuine) stylus or it doesn't m... |
