| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Virtuoso Nandric, **Dear Fleib, this is what our forum is about. Profit fromsomebody els experience. So to put it as simple as possible: learn from Raul what to do and from Fleib what not to do (grin).Virtuoso Nandric**LOL, There are quite a fe... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Nandric, Griffithds,To be honest I'm not sure exactly how much money the broken stylus bill comes to. I try not to think about it. This is the culmination of my stylus/cantilever investigation. I chose the AT line for obvious reasons. This star... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Pryso,I believe records spin clockwise south of the equator. However, the liquidity of the presentation is reversed. This can be especially disconcerting when a horn player neglects to empty his spit valve. The sound of the horn will retain the... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul, Have you moved to South America? cause you're now the Rationalist King of that continent. I don't want to debate the philosophical implications of your statements or methodology. This is your thread, your parade as it were. You have made ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul,**Now, each one of us need to have some parameters/factors/characteristics that could tell us if one cartridge is better or not to other one. I have very clear those parameters to " measure " cartridge quality performance, that's why I kno... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Delamostre1,Glad you're getting good results with the Sonus. Maybe you have the JVC by now? I think you'll enjoy the performance. Concerning the table; the performance can be improved by doing some work on the hollow base. It's prone to feedbac... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Nandric,I think you made a wise choice. It will be interesting to read what you think of it. Regards, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Nandric, Inexpensive styli are bonded. A smaller diamond is mounted on a metal platform that is attached to the cantilever. Better styli are nude mounted directly to the cantilever. This would include a pressure fitted one on an aluminum cantil... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Nandric, **So I may surpass the master by cutting of some plastic parts of the donors?**That is yet to be determined. Raul ordered a nude .3 x .7 elliptical on a tapered aluminum cantilever. AFAIK, there is no nude tip available for any of the ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Nandric, If you look at the underside of the CA, you'll see the cantilever exit the body from a rectangular piece of black plastic. That plastic is actually part of an AT stylus assembly. If you pry it up you'll see what we call the plug - this... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Nandric,I guess your cart will be very similar to Rauls. You didn't mention what kind of tip you ordered. Your Virtuoso, like any other AT MM, can exchange styli. You can have different styli mounted on separate plugs, and compare. I hope you d... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Lew,When I first got the 980 I took it up to 2.4K. It was all midrange at first. After some hrs I kept reducing it until somewhere around 250 ohms sounds right. The stylus is problematic. Most of those Pickering stereohedron have disappeared. A... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi David,This is interesting. One tidbit I didn't see in the Audio Circle post, was this: **On another topic - compating my Revox Linatrack arm to the JVC QL-Y5F... the high frequency response is pretty much the same, resonance frequency range (5H... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lew, Raul,Thanks for your responses. I'm always curious about other peoples experiences with this one. I usually load it between 200 and 300 ohms, depending on the pre. Apparently there was a MKI and MKII version of this cart. I don't know what th... |
