| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Downunder,I have not had that problem with the M20 but did have it with the MP50. I have had a similar problem in the past but it transpired that there was a break in my phonocable. I don't suppose there is any chance that that might be the case h... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The reasons for my personal lack of interest in buying the AKG for myself include my being completely satisfied with my options in the Glanz G5 (hopefully to be backed-up/replaced by a Glanz G7 or MFG 71L); Technics EPC-100c MK4 and Nagaoka MP50 c... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? ALL,If the url does not appear, the AKG P100-LE cartridge is now available at Yahoo Japan. Sinyi123 has proven really helpful in advising on such purchases in the past and might be able to assist if anyone wants to buy cartridge. Not only does he ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Anyone who's interested in buying the "AKG P100 Limited Edition" cartridge that has been highly promoted on this thread can currently find one for sale online. I seem to have problems notifying people by using URL's on this thread so I will post i... | |
| Ortofon MC A90 cartridge Vettorone/MikeL,I think the cartridge comparison that you are proposing will be invaluable for most audiophiles out here. If you could throw a Dynavector DRT XV-1s into the mix, it could even answer some of my most pressing questions concerning ca... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? What recommendations does anyone have for a tonearm to match the Technics EPC-100c Mk4?Many thanks | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Davev,That's great to hear and maybe it will improve more over the coming hours. I also agree with you about some things being immediate. Of all the cartridges that I have owned (or still own) the MP50 still marks a rare moment in which it took me... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Davev,I think another of those trial and error truisms relates to giving a cartridge at least 20 hours break-in before assessing. Maybe this will apply to your NOS ortofon but others surely seem very impressed with it. I'm sure you know this alrea... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Davev,Great to hear. Yes, as we seem to agree, their providence is an important factor in their popularity. Indeed, the Grace/103d combo is actually 'the' combo that was most frequently used. That other cartridges have made you happier is also a w... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Davev,You should try a Denon 103d on a Grace 660P tonearm. It was the standard used in Japanese broadcasting back in the day and helps me, at leaast, appreciate the clamour that there was for this cartridge (albeit clearly a budget item). Definite... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I've just came across a useful manual on the MP50, MP50H and MP30 equivalents. I must admit to smiling because its recommendations comply with what some of us have had to learn through the long and often painful process of trial and error. You can... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The term "IM" refers to "induced magnet". It is part of what makes the MP50 so special. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi All,Those considering a good phono stage for their MM/MI cartridges should look into the EAR 324. Despite its use of internal SUTs for the MC stage, its MM stage is flexible and of high quality. It would easily address the issues regarding load... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi All,Has anyone tested the 'Music Maker Classic' yet? Of all of the MM/MI cartridges that two very knowledgable friends (whose phenomenal personal hearing abilities I can attest to) have heard, they feel that this is THE cartridge. Not cheap but... | |
