| cartridge recommendation The pinnacle of MM is 70s/80s production, not sure if you’re familiar with this MM thread with a lot of discoveries. With your budget you can buy great MM or MI cartridge for sure, the Glanz (Mitachi Corporation) for example patented MF (Moving Fl... | |
| New Technics turntables I don’t want to say what is better when it comes to an old High-End classics like the SP-10 mkII (which i’ve been using for 5 years) ... and new Technics tunrtables released in the past few years. I think a classic is an option, anyone can buy a n... | |

| cartridge recommendation WTL tonearm normally goes well with Dynavector cartridges, but those cartridges have relatively high compliance for MC. They are also LOMC (low output), but 23RS MR or 17DS can be found for $500, for this price they are absolutely amazing. If you’... | |

| CD Got Absolutely Crushed By Vinyl @ct0517 A lot of riding going on. But only cartridge and its diamond rides in the groove where the music is, so only diamond touch the groove walls. If you have some problem right there you can not fix it anywhere else, no matter how well treat... | |

| Dragon, RX-505 or DR-2 ? Each Dragon that i’ve seen before sold for over $1.5k I love cassettes (good memories of the 90s). I wish to find the Nac deck, but i think $1.5k + service is too much for a cassettes heaven. | |

| Cartridge for ATP-12T I forgot to mention another rarity: Victor MC-1 which is relatively cheap LOMC cartridge with unique construction. Playing with Direct-coupled Victor MC-1 cartridge on Sony PUA-7 tonearm. The weight of the armature in the MC-1 was reduced by usin... |
