Any one of them can front a very satisfying audio system, if matched into a sympathetic front end and amplication chain and speakers that compliment its presentation.Lis... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? My phono preamp does not allow for changing MM impedance. ADC is on P-mount adapter - Sony PS-FL1 has a SONY headshell that takes 1/2 inch mount cartridges only. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Glanz 610 is great out of the box. Transient and tonal detail, great imaging and focus. A bit lean right now bur should fill in as Stylast works its magic. Clearly a great all around cartridge. Very happy to have snagged it.Now I have 4 identical ... | |

A small amount of Mortite or similar damped viscoplastic material placed iside the hollow part of the plastic stylus holder, after the brush has been removed.

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Along similar logic, a lot of the large differences heard between otherwise closely related vintage cartridges can be simply differences arising from level of use, storage degradation variations and sample variance. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Propagation velocity or another metric based on stiffness and density are reasonable simple ways to compare materials.A more meaningful and precise way would be to define error between tip motion and coil/magnet/iron movement. An ideal cantilever ... | |
