| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Ct0517 - I last used my ET2 with a Garrot modified Denon 103. Also used Koetsu Black & Shure V15VMR.As far as springs go, I really didn't use the spring effect at all. I found that even with low compliance cartridges, when you reduced the hori... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thanks Halcro - If you removed the stylus guard, it would be a lot more attractive to me than my V15Vxmr. Not into the gold bling though. If the marketeers got hold of it it would be the Shure Stealth 140 with proprietory resonance controlled body... | |
| Koetsu Urushi I would recommend a Shure M95ED. The M95ED cartridge has the added bonus of the Side-Guard Stylus Protection System which responds to accidental side thrusts on the stylus by withdrawing the entire shank and tip safely into the stylus housing befo... | |
| Hookup wire for tube amplifier? Atmasphere some great tips thanks.Most audiophiles would get more benefit from going to solder school than fussing about copper or silver. I have even heard significant improvements in interconnects from well respected manufacturers that have been... | |
| New Delos cart Jaspert I agree. Listening to a cartridge on a Naim based system and Technic SL1200 for a day or 2 is no basis for making sweeping statements on a particular cartridge. The Delos is excellent, but will show up system issues. In most systems I've h... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The new Clearaudio's have been available here for a number of months. They have been selling off the old Maestro's for $600 new. The major claims here were the stronger magnets and less resonant bodies on the new v2.Thucan - against the general tr... | |
| New AMG tt just arrived. Lewm - fyi I was corresponding with DJ Casser of Black Diamond Racing quite a lot during the past year before he died, and interestingly he was adamant that the move to platforms that had curved sides, either concave or convex, did indeed dissipat... | |

| New AMG tt just arrived. Lewm - click on system and you can see his whole system. Benz LPS/Ayre...To me it looks unbalanced - heavy platter, small base and why did they have to purloin the AMG V12 moniker. If the table is unique it deserves its own identity. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm this is old news. The newer v2's have stronger magnets, higher output 3.5 to 4.2, and heavier bodies. Impedance, inductance, tracking force, cantiliever, tip etc all remain the same. Supposedly wider freq response, more dynamic, and smoother.... | |
