| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Timeltel, Puissant or pissant, it really doesn't matter, although I think the latter is more appropriate if it would only relate back to OP. I think I get the point of your beautifully written prose, it's just that I don't accept your premise or t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Timeltel,BlasFleibmy? Kind of cleaver, but inappropriate don't you think? This stuff might seem like religion to you, but my cat BC, says it's mostly smoke and eyewash. Can't say I completely agree, but she's entitled to her opinion. She doesn't d... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul,Your remarks to Lewm are way off base. In the early days of Stereophile it was common practice for the manufacturer to make a gift of the review sample to an enthusiastic reviewer. How's that for an incentive? I'm not saying Cordesman was gui... | |
| Best way to warm up the sound Hi Saki70,The photo on the Music Hall link for the table still shows the Goldring cartridge. Ortofon is currently manufacturing the 2M series of MM carts and your Magic is probably one of them. If you're only around 30% of the way toward the sound... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Aceman3,The 160ML appears to have the same motor as the 440ML, 140LC, 155LC, etc. It's the stylus that should be outstanding. Timeltel,Seems that back in the day before the race to higher output, AT might have actually listened to the carts. The 1... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Timeltel, Aceman3,Looking at AT carts, there seems to be a qualitative relationship with lack of reactance. That is reflected in the resistance vs impedance. The top generators, 20SS, PC440, 550 etc have resistance and impedance nearly the same va... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? ATTENTION Frankenfans:Darth Griff AKA Griffithds, Don, and Dandy Don, has successfully transplanted a 150MLX (100 series) into a 95 plug (3400 series). This is the first known successful transplant of this type. Not to steal his thunder, I'll leav... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Aceman3,The generator in the 155LC is identical to the 440ML,5mV490mH3.2Kohm Have you tries a 150MLX? 4mV350mH2.3KohmThe motor in the 100E ($80 LpGear) is exactly the same as the 150, even the PCOCC wire. All these styli are interchangeable. Just ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? " Lets refer to this level as early stages of the transplanting transformation. The Frankencartridge has to begin somewhere and dewinging is as good a place to start as any!"Lets not. You can take the cantilever out of the plug, but you can't take... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Knut,"Playing CA virtuoso now with at3472 Jico stylus 0,3x0,7 at 1,4 vtf on a 12g effective mass tonearm. Transplant was very easy to do with a knife." This is the P-mount stylus I tried on my Virtuoso except mine is made by AT. I suspect all t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Stoner,I'm not against getting high, but it seems some people lose their power of discernment. I'm not angry or excited, so nothing to cool down for. I also have no hard feelings about a silly post, merely pointing out inaccuracies.This thread has... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Stonedagainagain,Rather nasty PM touting your fav cart. Why do some people think it's necessary to denigrate other brands when recommending? Not only that, the PM has misinformation.Grado is in Brooklyn, not the Bronx and why the basement remar... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Tubed 1,It is essential to have a small lip on the bottom of the plug so it's properly seated against the bottom of the cart body. If you position wire cutters flat against the plug you will get a near perfect lip. I think you can get a similar li... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Nandric,This discussion about economics and now political views, has no place on this forum. Why don't you take your opinions and ignorance to a more appropriate venue?Please don't address me again on these topics. Regards, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Nicola Nandric esq,If you're going to post in English, maybe you should learn the meaning of the words. That tends to facilitate communication. Debt crisis - massive PUBLIC debt relative to tax revenues or government income. If the US government t... |
