| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,I really do love your contributions........and this one is amongst the very best :^)But if I have to lie here in the rehab hospital after having both knees replaced and imagine you sitting naked in a darkened room...............my doctor... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,You're right that we have many times discussed this arm/ cartridge resonance issue and it's true that you have always reported the facts as you've stated above.I think it good that many of us are 'simple' enough to try all our cartridges... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Thuchan,It appears that you and I are hearing the same things with these wonderful Signet cartridges and the various styli options available?Even though we have totally different components, it appears that all our "distortions" are 'in align... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Measurement cannot be discountedDear Professor,I assume you mean.....in relation to the beautiful woman? :^< | |
| A $300-$400 turntable tweak As Manitunc and others here have suggested.........I believe that it may be the mat in combination with the rim weight which is the culprit here?I removed the Millenium mat from my Raven AC-3 and placed the record directly on the copper top platte... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? A great article from the past that was just posted on Vinyl AsylumMM vs MC | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,I think that maybe Thuchan's 'subjective' proposition relies on the fact that no matter how many 'objective' measurements you care to supply........if 'I don't like it' is the net response........what good is your objective evidence?To p... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Wayne,I will let the Professor speak for himself.With cartridges, I personally don't care what shape the stylus is if it does the job?I've had spherical styli ( particularly on MMs) which have sounded sublime.I've also had Shibata and Line Contact... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Nandric,Only 3 meals a day!?I have a friend (also of Polish lineage), whose chief claim to fame was discovering a meal that slotted seamlessly between breakfast and brunch :^)You realise also, that the Poles claim the Russians stole vodka fro... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Nandric,I look forward to the Sliwowitz. You realize of course that the Poles claim credit for this invention? :^) | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Wayne, I appreciate your comments but it was really the Professor himself who alerted me to the AT7V.Timeltel has inspired me to search for all the vintage Signets and it is he who has done all the hard work.......and very thoroughly I might add.W... | |
| A $300-$400 turntable tweak Hi Emailists,Thanks for the kind words.Perhaps the differences we are hearing on both our Ravens with the peripheral clamp, are due to the fact that you don't use the Millenium mat and I do?Interesting......I have to try it.CheersHenry | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lewm,Because of those poor quality connectors at the rear of the headshell and the poor connectors at the headshell/tonearm interface. This is another case I believe, of 'theory' trumping 'practice'?Firstly I don't accept the statement that t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,My AT-20SS Limited Edition had a brand new LPGear original replacement stylus (bought by me), and that was the only stylus I ever listened with.Before selling it, I broke the stylus by clumsily 'crushing' it in its cartridge case.This I ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Chris,You certainly have the midrange 'champ' with your Quad 57s.With the Empire and AT7V you must be careful to avoid 'midrangeitis'?I hear it's a particularly pleasant way to overdose :-)CheersHenry |
