| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Danny – I did not want to be premature with my findings with the at7v. I think I tamed this “Bronkin” Billy”. My initial impressions were as yours – singers closer to u, big bass, nice midrange – treble a little too much at times. I “think” I m... | |
| Power handling capability of original Quad esl 57s The 405 works well. The sound I heard taking it easy with a Music Reference RM9 was amazing. One knowledgeable member has commented on the protection circuit in my review of them. | |
| Power handling capability of original Quad esl 57s Tuttles I share your enthusiasm for these speakers. I have tried different SS / Tube amps with mine. The original 303 amps they came with were good for 28 wpc at 16 ohms and 45 at 8 ohms. I have a 405 amp. Quad recommends resistors be put in the 4... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Danny (Acman3)Can I ask what VTF you were tracking with on the AT7V before you changed to the other cartridge? Cheers Chris | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Stlrains - It gets much better. I am into probably 150 hours now on it maybe more and well this cartrdige has reached that special status with me.

| Review: Quad 57 When I started hearing the noise in the one tweeter panel when music was not playing my heart dropped thinking it was the panel. I paid $1400 for mine. I had the one checked out and the person said it was the EHT (the box module where you plug the... | |
| Review: Quad 57 Hi Kentaja Excellent information. I should qualify that the seller I bought my 57's from sent the panels to Wayne to rebuild. When they were returned to him he put them back into a stock 57 - hence no protection circuit. So this is why I am carefu... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? You guys are starting to concern me this fetish with tonearms – have you also given them names as well outside of the names their maker gave them ? Does a pretty tonearm compromise your listening and cause it to perform better than it really is ? ... | |
| Review: Quad 57 Henry I am going to have to stop posting after i have had a big morning coffee on Sunday mornings. I am finding I go on and on. I am hoping someone that has been able to spend more time with the 57's will come on here and answer your question bett... | |
| Review: Quad 57 Henry I have brought my sp10 to the location where the 57's are once for a week to try it out. My VPI TT is too big to move. So I am in the process of setting up a good TT at that location. My opinion so far and remember I am a linear tracker guy ... | |
| Eminent Technology LFT 8a's versus 8b's I agree - if you added the B ’ Tweeter you could always interchange with the A’s very easily. I think this talks greatly to the genius and simple way that Bruce built these speakers. Funny about the tweeter comments – maybe because mine are firing... | |
| Sonic difference bteween VPI hw 19 mk iv & VPI TNT Memac I owned the HW 19 Mk IV and currently own a TNT. Both with ET 2 arms. I echo what Wntrmute2 said with one exception. The HW19 MKIV keeps time "ok" - the TNT without an SDS can't keep speed - it goes too fast (at least mine did). So budget fo... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Timeltel Per your last post I pulled my Court and Spark lp and enjoyed last night. Regarding the “Raised on Robbery” track – of note any money wagered on the "Maple Leafs" hockey team that Joni references, ever since this lp came out - would ... | |
