| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi LewmI don't think the Cadenza series is MM.On the Ortofon website it is categorised in the MC section.It also talks about the Cadenza being a further development of the previous Kontrapunkt range (which is certainly what it looks like)Although ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? A question for our erudite fraternity....Is anyone out there still making exotic tube cantilevers?The Genesis1000 is described by fleib as having a diamond coated boron tube cantilever, The Talisman S had a Saphire tube cantilever, and the top Tec... | |
| Much better MM cartridge than Shure V15 IV? Absolutely! Yes it would improve the Maestro...A number of contributors to Raul's MM/MC thread have done a stylus retip/recantilever on CA MM's with great success...http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?eanlg&1200430667&&&/Who-ne... | |
| Automatic Turntables ??? - My JVC QL-Y5F is very definitely an SME type bayonet fit headshell S-armI do use quite a few p-mount cartridges on it, but I use these via either a p-mount adapter on a standard headshell, or on a Technics SH90S p-mount bayonet adapter...Inf... | |
| Cartridge Compliance Another poor innocent audiophile enters the netherworld of cartridge compliance....Seeking in the fog for points of reference.... (all we need now are Scully and Mulder)Yes those two measures are equivalent, and there are rules of thumb applicable... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Dover,for sure, but some of us want to have our cake and eat it too...(and that wee little resonance can't be such a big deal can it ?!) | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Timeltel, I am not clear as to whether you are responding to my posting with regards to measuring ETM via primary resonance, or my second recent posting with regards to headshells and vibration...Assuming it is the former:The physics behind usi... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? On the topic of headshells ...My observation and measurement of various cartridges on the JVC S-arm clearly shows up a resonance around 250Hz (varying a bit depending on headshell/cartridge) which appears to be related to the flex between arm tube... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Folks,working my way through some late 60's Walton articles on measuring pickups, I came across the formula for calculating Effective Tip Mass.This requires two important values: 1) Primary resonance frequency and 2) Vinyl compliance constant.T... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Yes I recollect an article in a motoring magasine many years ago - the reviewer walked in on a well known specialist mechanic sitting on the floor of his workshop with a Ferrari motor in a thousand pieces around him.The journalist asked him what w... | |
| Automatic Turntables Hi Audiogabby,I would suggest searching fleabay, audiogon, the various audiophile forum sales sections...But also Yahoo auctions Japan - I think the Japanese sites are the most likely place to find them - I've seen some there a few times over the ... | |
| Automatic Turntables From the same era, using the same technology, and according to some, designed by the same design team...The JVC QL-Y series (5/7/55/66/77) - all have the electro mechanical servo damped arm, the later top models have magnetic bearing direct drive ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Jonathan,thanks for that posting!Could you please go into more detail on the "voicing" differences?Are we talking audiophile fashion? Or are we talking differing compromises?Is one more "true" to the original master? Or can different voicings a... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? We appear to be heading back towards the linguistic impass we encountered before.Henry, could you characterise your listening experiences with top MM's vs MC's in technical audio terms that can only have a single meaning please.... if that is poss... |
