| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thanks Frogman,You get no argument from me on this one....👌Is there something that you are able to deduce from these comparisons with the LDR that separates the sound of the Deccas from LOMCs in general...?Thanks again for a brilliant analysis 👍 | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thanks for the great feedback guys 😘It's good to have Dover's new perspective...I know you are both Decca fanboys.....so as a reward, I hope you enjoy this comparison....🤗FIDELITY RESEARCH FR-7fzLONDON DECCA REFERENCELet's see if Princi got it rig... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 @dover I'm pleased you've been following (and like) the cartridge comparisons...😀Are you able to easily hear the differences from the YouTube videos?What about the differences between the LOMCs and the MMs?Do you think there is a 'generic' differe... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thanks for the clarification on the FR7 Dover....I didn't know of the FR-7fc but note that is has a CONICAL STYLUS instead of the LINE CONTACT of the FR-7fz....Have you ever heard one?What about it do you think, could make it different to the FR-7... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 I managed to acquire an unused FIDELITY RESEARCH FR-7fz LOMC cartridge from 1984.This NOS FR-7fz is the 'Holy Grail' for those who appreciate the FR-7 Series of LOMCs designed by the legendary Ikeda-san.As Art Dudley wrote...Way back in 1967, Iked... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Interesting comments Frogman......My apologies for leaving the glass doors open for the Azden so that the AC unit could be heard. I closed them for the Palladian 🙃Interesting comments on the record quality because I have some friends who insist on... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 So I've had the most frustrating 'listening' week...and I blame Frogman ☝️I've had the AZDEN YM P50VL for 10 years but when I first tried it then....it didn't 'make the cut' and so ended up collecting dust in a drawer.At Frogman's suggestion....I ... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thank you Frogman, for taking the time and trouble to write your last Post.It made me realise that there is perhaps nothing wrong with my hearing...it's just that we all have different priorities and preferences.It dawned on me that, whereas a mus... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 I know what you mean.....Whenever I hear the Mr Whippy van come down the street playing Greensleeves, I know it’s ‘live’...... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Wow Frogman........🤯I wasn't expecting THAT...!!Firstly....I agree completely how far we are from truly creating the illusion of a 'live orchestra'....even for million dollar systems (and I've heard several).That's why at HiFi shows.....even Munic... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Thank you Harold for the above Post.......Full of emotion and enthusiasm 🥳I suspect however that you meant it to appear in the 'Glanz Thread' where it would be read by more appropriate contributors.....?🧐Regards | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 This comparison is a little more complex.....Not only do we have different arms, but also different turntables.The Direct-Drive Victor TT-101 against the Belt-Drive TW Raven AC-2.There are many who will claim this renders the comparison 'invalid' ... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 I want to thank you again Frogman for that detailed, informative analysis.I can’t admit to being able to hear exactly what you describe between MMs and MCs.....but your examples in these ’shoot-outs’ enable me to perhaps ’train’ myself to listen m... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 I've had my three Garrott P77 cartridges for nearly 40 years.I first put a JICO SAS (Boron) stylus in one of them about 6 years ago and then tried the NEO-SAS (Sapphire) and NEO-SAS (Ruby) a few years ago.AS PALLADIAN LOMC CartridgeGARROTT P77/SAS... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Noromance is becoming more confident in his analyses and I think he's spot-on....Frogman and "the very cute pooch" (Princi-a male Principessa) are also correct as usual...at least in Frogman's case....Princi is generally a sideline critic 🤣....I a... |
