| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? by some weirdness the above post was posted twice. Dunno how I did that. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? I searched long and hard for that 980LZS, just out of curiosity and because of its exotic nature. I got this in very used condition off eBay. Sadly, I had a chance to buy an NOS D98S stylus for it, but I procrastinated due to the cost and lost it ... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thanks, Nicola. It would appear based on your contribution that some of the other FR tonearms might indeed be more suitable for the FR cartridges that Raul and Halcro own. But now Halcro states that in fact the compliance of the cartridges is inde... | |
| How can anyone afford this ? FWIW, New York is a wonderful, vibrant city, unlike almost any other city on earth, in a good way. It does cost too much to live there decently however. | |

| Graham Phantom B44 2 or Taela ? Mike, Better have some oxygen handy when you finally get your v2.0 Talea. I heard a v2.0 at my neighbor's house. (Yes, there are two crazy audiophiles living on the same street in Bethesda, MD.) He is using a ZYX and a Doshi preamp with which I am... | |
| unique tonearm Brooklyn Bridge I have a hunch that the colorations the L07J may impart are due to the multitude of physical contacts in the signal path and possibly to their choice of Litz wire in the headshell, the tonearm body, and in the IC, plus the "sound" of that DIN plug... | |
| unique tonearm Brooklyn Bridge Jaspert, Thanks for the URLs, but both of them lead me to blank pages with no photos.Travis, Possibly because I was not able to view the photos, I do not understand your reference to the L07J (what the cognoscenti know to be the model designation ... | |
| How can anyone afford this ? I sympathize with your plight. Here are some ideas:(1) Buy one system within your means and then think of that as basic to your every day life, something that is non-negotiable.(2) Re-read what Viridian wrote.(3) For bang for the buck, think used ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, That's very useful information, even to someone who might have a different opinion of those FR cartridges. (I am not one of those; I don't own one.) Thanks.One wonders why the FR cartridges are not in fact perfectly suited to the FR tonearms... | |
| unique tonearm Brooklyn Bridge Thanks. That is a way cool tonearm, and from what one can see of it, it is beautifully engineered with respect to the "problems" inherent to a pivoted tonearm. I'd love to see more detailed photos from more angles. | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Banquo, I have nothing to say about Copernicus, but did you ever get your SP10 squared away by Berdan or Thalmann? If not, and if it's still unreliable, IMO you should reconsider it. | |
| Technics SP-10mkII replacement screws? No guessing. All the threaded holes that are placed at intervals around the periphery of the underside of the chassis, so as to affix it to a plinth, are M5. That is, 5mm (metric) thread. You just need to choose a length to suit your plinth.What e... | |
| Whest Audio MC REF V MK4. My new toy. DCarol, No one here has to do anything. When Raul started the thread on MM/MI cartridges, I was as skeptical as you. However, for a few hundred bucks and some DIY work, I was able to give a listen to some of the better cartridges mentioned above, ... |
