| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Does anyone know for sure if all the AT20 cantilevers were Beryllium? The AT 20SL, 20SLa, the 20SS and what ever other 20 there might have been? To many errors in data base to trust what's read there. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Flieb,I think you just might be on to something with your comments pertaining to the mis-identified PCN100. Nikola has sent me a photo of the cantilever of my 550ML. The way it is built sure looks like a Audio Technica manufacture, right down to t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Flieb,"Square post housing is inadequate to describe the 100 series of styli (plugs), which the 155LC, 152MLP etc, belong."I wasn't describing the plugs in the series. I was stating why one type would not work in the other type situation. Square p... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Flieb,Yes, I own 2 of the 20SS styli. One of them is on the 20SLa body that came with the 20SLa stylus I have mentioned in my discussions of the TK7SU. Flieb, I like options, lots of options. And yes, I do need to thin the heard, a lot! | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Acman3I have ordered another Akai from TTN. Price $139 then minus purchase bonus points that I had accumulated, dropped it down to $89. Knowing how good it is, and how supplies suddenly disappear, it is hard not to order spares! | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Acman3,Isn't the 155LC a square post housing? Because the 220 takes a round post. I know my 152MLP and 152LP which are "P" mount versions of the 155LC have square posts. I would think they would both be the same in this regard? | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Comrade,So very kind of you to protect me and look after my wallet, but I already have someone who does that. I sleep with her every night. (grin) | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Nikola,Since you are probably the only person in the world who has a (suspect)550ML stylus housing and an original 220 stylus housing, perhaps you could do me a favor. Could you look very carefully at the two of them and determine (other than colo... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Fleib,See Tiemltels reply to Nikola dated 4-25-13. Just up the page. As far as "cost effective", what I wanted was a stylus as close as possible to an original 7SU. I have a TK7CLa already and wasn't looking to replicate it. I recall someone on an... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Fleib,I did not had it in my possession long enough to see the comments you and Nikola have stated. I sent it off to him after a short time in my system. It was not even broken in when he received to for an audition.I do intend to spend some time ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Tubed1,Sounds like something well worth the effort. I have the short nosed M312STR. I will definitely give this a go. Thanks for the Mod effort and the write-up. That's what is great about this forum. A person can learn so much just through sharin... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Comrade,Funny how the name "Schwarzeneger", came to mine when talking about Frankenstein.The Precept's as well as the Signet's were both top tier Audio Technica cartridges. This fact alone, means it's not just an "average body" cartridge. As far a... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Comrade,I think you have taken my response to personal. I, like Raul, have not seen even a picture of a Precept 550ML cartridge. So we do not know what one "should look like". LPGear did not in my opinion represent the 550ML as a substitution... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Nikola,"So I am no at all sure that this stylus is actually the 550".When Raul first mentioned where the 550ML could be purchased (LPGear), I immediately ordered it. Very soon after, it sold out. I have no doubt that it is anything other than an o... |
