| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon @mechans How do you know "it's superb" if you only have had one MC cartridge and this particular MC is not even a low output ? We do believe that everything we're buying is superb until this opinion is crashed by something much much better, so co... | |
| Recommendations for an MC cart on Audiogon Chakster, I don’t but from what I’ve read & understood here I thought MC was the better way to step into audiophiledom once I’m in this price range. It also seemed what I was reading was that most MM at this level have more of a warm feel &a... | |

| The nightmare of the cartridge buyer... @gilles130 if anyone would like to repair the suspension then it’s also impossible, same logic, ZYX cartridge body is sealed, nobody knows which material has been used by Nakatsuka-San for suspension/damper. If you proceed via official distributor... | |

| low mass tone arm suggestion sub $1k used @bimasta I did use the EPA-500 for awhile, with the lightest armwand. I adored the design, less so the sound. Had some ’golden ear’ friends over — I had it set up alongside an SME 3009/II, playing identical cartridges, and all preferred the SME... | |
| low mass tone arm suggestion sub $1k used This my ex Luxman TA-1 lighweight tonearm for high compliance cartridges. The armwand is removable like one big headshell. This tonearm made by Micro Seiki and it’s way better than Infinity Black Widow for example. I’ve been using Luxman TA-1 with... | |

| No right channel in new cartridge @djf1 They mounted it on a new tt I had also purchased. I had it for 2 months then one night the right channel went out. Wow, that's bad. I haven't anything like that even with my 30 years old vintage MM or MC cartridges, except the one in a bu... | |
