| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? In support of Rauls quote, ****Now, the 103 success IMHO is not because the speric/ conical stylus shape but mainly because its motor. That stylus came with conical stylus because the cartridge belongs to a very restricted consumer price range and... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Tubed1,"a conical styli actually rides deeper in the groove"Ask yourself something. Does additional information reside deeper in the groove? I think it's just more dirt! | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul,I'm a little confused? Do we now have 2 Axels. One in Germany, and One in England?I think it's the exchange rates that are making the UK prices seem higher. If England had moved to the Euro currency system, I doubt that their would be much... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Timeltel,****the mongrelized TK7SU is sounding extraordinarily good tonight.****I think it was you that once said "I never met a Signet I didn't like." I have come to that same conclusion. It doesn't matter which model, or what type of music yo... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Audiofeil,Good eye! I never thought to look. That red flag is SCREAMING.Regards,Don | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Lewm,++++Does anyone here agree with the notion that a spherical tip is optimum for a stereo cartridge? I have no doubt it is a good way to go for mono.++++I certainly do not agree with the stereo part. The information that is captured by the s... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Timeltel,I was going to make you a deal. You buy the Audio Acoustics 3002 that's killing me sitting their, and I'll buy the *****EPC-102SP offered on Agon, someone please buy it.*****, but I now notice it's not a standard mount! I could not use... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I have done a search of this forum and have not found much of a duscussion in reference to the London Decca cartridges. They seldom if ever show up on Ebay so I assume the owners cherish them and retip when necessary. They seem to have that homema... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Audpulse,From time to time, I go back and reread the previous 5-10 pages of the forum to kind of refresh my memory of the various topics that we are discussing. I ran across the following quote I had made to a reply to a comment that you had ma... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Ecir38,With Raul getting back cartirdges in days from vdH. Others getting theirs back from Axel within 2 weeks. Having ES state 6 weeks for turnaround but then delivering in 6 months, just makes me want to comment and ask "WHY". Orders must have c... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Audpulse,If you do use this NORTHWEST ANALOGUE, please keep us informed. More options the better!Regards,Don | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The problem as I see it with all the normal retip services (other than Axel), is that we (the repair my 1 defective cartridge group), are at the bottom of the priority list for repairs. If vdH and others deal with Expert Stylus, and I'm sure they ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Lewm,Try contacting vdH for a paratrace/sapphire combo and see what he says. It might be a backdoor way of finding out if he does send some if not most out to ES. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Lewm,In June, I was given a, (have cartridge to them by 1st week in Aug.), repair schedule. Their email said 6 week turn around from that date. That would be end of Sept. The cartridge is a Denon 103FL. They are installing the Sapphire cantlive... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Timeltel,I accidently hit the submit instead of preview to edit so I'll continue. I did ask Axel to not replace the cantilever if it needed a new tip. To me, the stylus looked very good under a 75xx scope. I have high hopes for the turtle. The rep... |
