| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thanks Dover,Informative comments.....The question though is:- Do these $2,000 cartridges miss out on the 'magic' of the Palladian sufficiently enough to make the $8,000 extra investment obligatory? 🤗And note that the Palladian is the very best LO... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Looking forward to this next comparison. Later.Frogman?...Frogman?....Bueller?.....Anyone?...... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Frogman (and I agree) has anointed the AS PALLADIAN LOMC Cartridgeas the 'benchmark' in my system (possibly a tie with the LDR for Frogman and Noromance?)....The Palladian is a current production top-of-the-line LOMC from Acoustical Systems which ... | |

| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thanks for the kind words Rob.I'm pleased you're enjoying the Thread...😀As to your question on styli profiles and cantilever materials.....these are hotly debated topics and some audiophiles have rather staunch and dogmatic views on both.I'm not o... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Oh how wonderful the LDR sounds in MONO....when there's no sound-staging issues 🤗I am completely "immersed, astounded, moved and left shaking my head in disbelief at what I am hearing in my own room....."I didn't know Frogman, that Ray could even ... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Hahaha......Coming from you Eckart, that is high praise 😇I know how much you love mono, and I also know how much you love jazz 🎹🥁🎷🎺You should get this Ray Charles boxset from Discogs.It contains 5 discs (10 sides) of his wonderful music mostly rec... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 This should be an interesting comparison....🤗Five years ago, at the start of the mono-cartridge ’fad’.......I bought the AUDIO-TECHNICA AT-33 MONO LOMC Cartridge to see if there was an improvement over using my stereo cartridges with my Phonostage... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thanks Frogman.....The reason I showed and commented on the live orchestra in Ravello is that they were all REAL unamplified instruments in 'real' space yet to me.....it didn't matter 😴It left me cold 🥶 and unmoved 🙉....and I really didn't want to... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 But, some get closer to it than others. And that is what I hear and try to describe. The differences may be very subtle, but they are there. To me, the Decca sounds closer to the sound of music as I know it than the Shure does. So, if that is ... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Are you certain it wasn’t a setup or record issue? Well I'm certain it wasn't a record issue because it occurred on all records.I'm not certain it wasn't a setup issue but it occurred on the three tonearms surrounding the Victor......the knife-edg... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Agree with you both on the FR-5E and 6SE,,,,,,I have always preferred the 6SE to the 5 and 5E and have been confounded by the preference of some (J Carr and Chakster) for the FR-5E?They are BOTH coloured cartridges in that they emphasise the 'warm... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Something I said Frogman? 🙂 | |
