| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul, I had seen several Atmasphere preamps the last years which were - apparently due to modification then - featuring cascaded tube/JFet phono-input stages. Cheers | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul, Jonathan Carr is involved in cartridge manufacture and as such his goal has to be to keep the prospective "field" of customers for his products as wide as possible. Smart and logic.Furthermore he does not concentrate on LOMCs either (i.... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul, sure that is your opinion - it just has nothing to do with what is actually taking place technical-wise and is as such the plain common habit to ignore at least one inherent technical phenomenon of the moving coil.But each his own....;-... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul yes, you already mentioned your preference of the MAX for the FR and Ikeda cartridges back in 2008 in a different thread. But I neither asked for it nor is it in any conjunction with anything posted here in this thread by me or anybody e... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm, the corresponding SUT to a given LOMC will have an inductance based on its primary's coil. That inductance will be in a ratio comparable to the matching impedance ratio vs the source impedance of the LOMC. Regarding the correct matching impe... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Use the LOMC the way it was designed by the engineers - and its inventors.A LOMC is a moving coil. A coil has a source impedance (that it common knowledge) and an inductance. The source impedance likes to "see" a matching impedance at the phono in... | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias Dear Peterayer, your suggestion is worth musing about. I will have some spare time over the christmas holidays and will prepare a list of my favorite records used for exploring the sonic abilities of components. Cheers,D. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lewm, it was Syntax who pointed my attention to this article - so the credits go to him.Cheers,D. | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias Viridian, while I do not share your opinion nor would say that you understood my proposal correctly (neither in intend nor content), I agree - with the experience of the past year here on Audiogon... - that there is hardly any intention to agree n... | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias It is - apparently - very difficult to establish any kind of "reference standard" (this is not meant to be taken in as "quality" here!) in a subject which is so highly individual and burden with taste, preference and emotion.Some may even fear suc... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Pryso, have a look here: http://www.klyne.com/pages/reviews.html | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Halcro, yes - I think I know exactly what you mean and do share that "experience" with most LOMCs as well as with all digital equipment so far.I however believe that it is a more complex phenomenon not just of the LOMC and tonearm, but of the... | |
| Establishing a common analog listening bias No certainly not easy - 10 audiophiles = 11 opinions.Guess we have to abandon the idea of establishing any common ground regarding a set/list of "evaluation records" for high-end audio purpose.But then that idea is failing in almost all areas of s... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Halcro, your analogy have never been able to listen to CDs played over a high-end system for more than about 1/2 an hour at a time no matter how good the CD player is and I am finding this same kind of inner-body stress occurring now when I ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Back in 1980 the german high-end magazine HIFI-exklusiv (long defunct now) published an astonishing test result of the then current production SHURE V15MK3 mounted in a FR-64s tonearm. In this particular tonearm - obviously a "mechanic dynamic" mi... |
