Hi Dover,Congratulations. Good to hear :-) 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
the exchanging of headshells is of some value, but that's a personal opinion.And it's an honest opinion......Trying to justify 'opinion' by speculation or invoking 'voodoo' science is annoying IMO.Now there may well be some reasoned thought behind...

A discussion in the 'Glanz' thread on integrated headshell design more fittingly belongs here!Raul set forth his arguments against the concept:-Dear Henry: +++++ " It would seem impertinent to assume that the manufacturers did not conduct a thorou...

Glad to see your post of course but do we need to force you to contribute?As I have zero experience with Glanz cartridges..........the obvious answer is.....yes.Regards

You called Nikola?I am happy to say that I am well but puzzled slightly about your reference to those who do not own tonearms with detachable headshells?You are surely not one of those........?! :^)With regard to cartridges with integrated headshe...

That's strange Mike,When my cartridges were ready.......Axel sent me an Email with the Tracking No of the postal service together with the Invoice for the work.In other words.......he sent the completed cartridges before I had even paid him? And I...

No offense Lew,I enjoyed your response.Have you mounted your FR-64s yet 
Technics SP-10 mkII speed adjustment question
Lew,Of course some of us are reading this thread and some.....like me....would prefer you to stick to 'medical science' rather than structural science?Whilst invoking the Laws of Newton may appear to add credence to your statements.......there mus...

Dover,A good analogy.......I know what you mean as I have heard this effect myself between copper and silver wiring.I'm not sure though that the presentation I am hearing with LOMCs is identical because as I said......there is an immediate 'impres...

Like David......I would be most interested in further elaboration on the 'voicing' of cartridges which you mention Jonathan?How does this relate to 'flat' frequency response?Regards 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
It is not my intention to convert or convince anyone to ‘switch’ from LOMCs to MM/MI cartridges.My efforts over the last five months…….were an attempt to resolve (for my own benefit)……the ‘generally’ accepted notion of the superiority of LOMCs wit...

Lew,Apology accepted :^)Raul.....can you elaborate on the reasons for this long hiatus in your 'listening' ability? 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
I theorize that the sense of increased detail with LOMC cartridges is due to their lesser ability to re-create the harmonic envelope of a voice or instrument, compared to the best of the MM or MI types. I agree.......and please don't discuss my t... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Hi Lew,I'm glad you found my posts of some interest.I have, for some time, been ruminating on the puzzle (to me) of the LOMC attraction?What alarmed me the most......was why I heard (or preferred perhaps).....differently to the majority or high-en...

I received back from Axel my Clearaudio Virtuoso (Black) and Fidelity Research FR-7f.....both with the 'Nandric-approved' nude Line Contact stylus in aluminium cantilever.After a long break-in for the Virtuoso (during which it sounded quite awful)...
