| How good is your system You’re a good sport, Douglas. | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 First, Rita sounds wonderful. Very nice performance.I should probably go back and listen to the other cartridges that have been compared to the Palladian before making this comment, but I think that the Glanz, overall, gives the Palladian the bes... | |
| How good is your system +1 bigkidz. I don’t agree that “resolution” as defined by most audiophiles is necessary for realistic (accurate) microdynamics which is, as bigkidz says, what makes the music exciting. I suppose one could call it dynamic resolution, but that is ... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 No correction necessary, Halcro. With, of course, the usual caveats that listening this way has important limitations (talk about stating the obvious!) and using different tone arms has to be factored in. Still, one can compare the two different s... | |
| broken dreams - new cartridge help please! Well, adaptors are easily available and inexpensive. LP Gear sells a better than average one. Re 75K: As you probably know some MM enthusiasts claim 100k is ideal. I’ve always stuck with 47k. 75k might be interesting. | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thanks for your responses, travbrow and raul. I did experiment with VTA, tracking force, azimuth, etc. Improvement was definitely possible, but still same basic character. Interesting that the specs and data for Gold and non-Gold are the same. | |
| broken dreams - new cartridge help please! Mine came with the p-mount to standard 1/2in mount, L bracket adaptor; works well. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? How does the 4000D3 differ from the 4000D3 Gold physically? I own the Gold and while it is good I am not particularly impressed by it. I find it to be a little too texturally soft and polite. Thanks. | |
| broken dreams - new cartridge help please! I can’t imagine how anyone could do better than this for the money. Sounds very good in my system. No affiliation with seller:https://www.ebay.com/itm/Azden-YM-P50VL-ultimate-performance-cartridge-same-as-Empire-875XLT-RARE/31... | |
| How good is your system Nice tune; new to me. Thanks! If you mean the whispers beginning at around 0:45, yes. I guess my iPhone and $15 Phillips earbuds (YouTube) are pretty good; road noise and all 😊 | |
| broken dreams - new cartridge help please! I am sure others can offer suggestions as well. All of the MM’s that I have used with the EAR have been vintage MM’s and not that easy to find: AT ATML170-OCC, Empire 4000D III, Andante, Azden and Acutex LPM 420STR. All are excellent (the Andant... | |
| broken dreams - new cartridge help please! This is not a pitch for any inherent superiority of MM cartridges as some believe; there are great examples of both MM and MC. However, I know the EAR very well and I can say with confidence that the MM section is inherently better sounding than t... | |
