VPI 3D tonearm

And when a 8k cartridge is absolutely inferior in comparison to a 2k cartridge, then there are only 2 ways: To deny that, or to think about that.This is what I also found.When a 21st century $4,000 or $5,000 or $10,000 dollar LOMC is outperformed ...

Dear Thuchan,why are we talking about limiting? The word limit itself is something I do very hard in most life environments. Maybe better: Take it to the limit... vroom!You know.....I think you're right! :-)
