| Review: ACUTEX LPM 315 III STR Cartridge Raul,Great to see you getting even more pleasure. Shame about the soundstaging but, as you say, sacrifices for preferences seem the order of the day.Thanks for sharing your views again and happy listening | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Oops, No G2 (as far as I have heard!!) - G1, G3, G5, G7 only. | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Hi All,Been spending quite some time with my Glanz cartridges and doing some thinking. I recall certain Japanese cartridge makers (Audio Technica etc) have produced high quality models for the Japanese and Foreign market but kept one or two "speci... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Hi Nandric,I agree to some extent: although the third Critique might not quite uphold the distinction. Personally, I'm not quite certain where my philosophical leanings should be categorised but I obviously find much of great relevance to our conc... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Hi Nandric,Just to clarify a little: I agree with your distinction about perceptions of art and about the extensive complexity of any judgement of art.However, I think that Baumgarten's work on aesthetics/taste/truth and Kant's critical response t... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Hi Nandric,Thanks for your thoughtful reflections on what I am sure is a more common experience than it might generally appear. I agree.A case in point might be in comparisons of the famous interpretations/performances of Bach's Partitas by Arthur... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm,"So one has to believe the instrument that resides between one's ears.":~)Spot on | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Raul,Well, where to begin? Firstly, I must apologise for your interpretation of my reference to: "in conversation and debate with friends whose hearing ability might exceed the Audiogon norms". I can now see how this might read as an attack on the... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Lewm/Dgarretson,Corrections include: 1000ZE/X not SE/X (Downunder's humour obviously stuck somewhere!). Secondly, I meant its 'soundstage width and depth' and not its 'imaging' as an immediate positive.Cheers | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Lewm/Dgarretson,I must admit that I have so far only heard the Azdens for limited periods - as I have posted elsewhere on Audiogon. My perspective on it might change but I have given my honest opinion of it now. Sadly, the Glanz, Technics, ATML-17... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Lewm,Apologies but I was pressed for time and so did not fully respond. Well, my son no longer desires his chauffeur and so I'll try to clarify some of your points. Glanz was a Japanese make ["Mitachi Onkyo Seisakusho (brand name "GLANZ")] that wa... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Raul,Many thanks for your view and I do believe we have indeed heard many different things from similar equipment but such is life. I think hat the raising of the "fuller and warmer" issue above has not quite grasped my point nor the basis on whic... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Hi Again,By way of quick clarification, I should also stress that I am not claiming that each of the noted grouped cartridges sound the same or are of the same quality. My division is based on taste and experience and will hopefully be read with s... | |
| Glanz moving magnet cartridges Hi All,I've not been able to resist. Having sent my Technics EPC-P100 Mk4 cartridge off for a touch up at Van den Hul, I put my Glanz G7 back on my Audiocraft AC-3300 tonarm last night with its original arm wand (AP300). Despite the fact that it d... | |
| Azden Cartridges Jmowbray,I think Van den Hul might be able to mend your 50VL. It will definitely be worth contacting your local agent to inquire. If you do, please let us know how it works out.I've not really given the 50L and 50E sufficient time but they both so... |
