| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Halcro, excellent as always ! That´s a great find ! Looks like beryllium... As you have many beryllium carts can you confirm the material ?? This is extremely important. Thank you | |
| Death of Rock 'n' Roll Indeed. Well, I´ve always been against the tyranny of the mainstream and it´s kinda fun when reading how low the masses eventually will go : )But now it´s time to ..... zzz ZZZZ | |
| Death of Rock 'n' Roll Schubert, for a classic music lover you´ve got kinda punky attitude : )I say this for second time ´cos ... you rock´n´roll and I like it ; ) | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Chak, your biggest mistake is not that limitless arrogance as a novice but you simply cannot take a man´s word. "Your" Pyramidian MFG-71L has the lowest VTF of all the MFG-XXX series, a possible exception is your MFG-61L. And it does have the flat... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Trav, congrats on the new MFG-610LX. Chak, First correcting my little typos, of course I´m talking about GLANZ MFG-310LX (actually my first Line Contact cart in the early 80´s, very good sound way back btw, no listening fatigue which´s always a go... | |
| Best Cartridge for $1000-$1350? I have two styli for the ML180, both sound better at 30 kOhm. I am sure they are not worn, besides a worn stylus will sound distorted and that I would hear immediately. It´s quite distinctive sound, like also sibilance is.Following Raul´s advice f... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Chak, you gotta prove this community that all GLANZ motors are exactly the same. + you gotta prove us that all GLANZ and ASTATIC motors are exactly the same. You will have a hard job but we are all ears.FYI GLANZ MFG-31LX w/ Line Contact is not AS... | |
| Best Cartridge for $1000-$1350? Actually I´m using 30 kOhm with my AT-ML180. And actually I did try 100 kOhm following Raul´s advice in 2014 (I think) and to my great surprise it and a couple of other vintage MMs like Shure´s flagship suffered from high register over emphasis, m... | |
| Best Cartridge for $1000-$1350? No it can´t. Now with the vintage Highphonic MC-R5 no more listening fatigue which has been an issue with that ART9. Additionally the MC-R5 can be listened on higher volume level without increased feel of distortion I noticed with ART9. Highphonic... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Just buy it. My GLANZ MFG-610LX from (early ?) 80´s is magnificent vintage classic MF, very balanced & nuanced sound, one of my top 5 of MM kind really. However, that one on eBay you are looking at is not exactly the same I have, it´s later st... | |

| Will technology make records obsolete one day? Digital Revolution sounded like Communist Mantra back in the day. Well, hear in the border of the East we Finns never took it too seriously. We won´t never be fooled, by any mantra : ) | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Twas in 2012 and yes not a true NOS obviously. Yes I have the MF 2500, took your advice and got it for a ridiculous price under 300 USD many years ago. And an MF-100, the second best ASTATIC for 100 USD, and believe or not the seller said it would... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? travbrow, slimpikins & all,My AT150ANV was sapphire pipe + Micro Line and played just fine and tracked everything easily but didn´t make magic, like all ATs I have had.My ATN20SS was indeed probably just goofied by the seller but a serious aud... |
