Anyone have any experience with the Naogoka MP110?
I am using a MusicHall mmf5 with the stock tonearm. The origional cartridge was the golding and the table had been setup in the factory for it. I dialed in the proper styless pressure and checked it for the recommended grams.

Thanks for the response. Just want to give you more backround on the problem. As far as the Ortofon Super OM10 goes I have no problems bottoming out because of its shape, but it is a bit weak on base as a few reviews seem to point out. Recently, I...

Has anybody used the older design : the MP11 and experienced and bottoming out by the cartridge on the first track? Thanks 
Thinking of adding a subwoofer for more bass.
Thanks for that last repsonse Marty, I think I am going to go with a 8" to 10" subwoofer and try it out. If it doesn't work I will just send it back. As far as the equilization is concerned, I am going to set it up to my listening preferences. Tha... 
Thinking of adding a subwoofer for more bass.
In reply to your comments I am reading the 37 Hz right off the specifications. My main concern was that if the output of my system was not generating the low frequency the sub woofer would not make enough difference. I guess I will have to experim... 
Thinking of adding a subwoofer for more bass.
I have played with speaker placement, but still not satisified with the amount of base. Also, I changed out the speakers cables from the cheap clear stuff to the shielded and insulated cables and that did very little. Was thinking about changing o... 
EL 34s for Cayin A 50T Integrated Amp
I saw a quad of the EL34 sveltlana's on ebay. They were about $59? One last question, does anybody no about EL34 Mullards? They are selling them on Ebay too. 
EL 34s for Cayin A 50T Integrated Amp
I saw a set of 4 Sveltlanas but they are not the "Winged C" that people are talking about. Are they good as well or is the difference night and day when compared to the "Winged C's? Also, the electro harmonix that you are referring to replaces the... 
Ortofon Super OM10 or Sumiko Pearl cartridge?
Thanks Again! Just quick note for anybody whois is a fan of Ortofon cartridges. I tried a OM20 equivalent by LPGear? The OM20 equivalent stylus was $79.99 and the 30 stylus was $99.99. The 20 stylus seem to make a bit of a difference. Just thought... 
Ortofon Super OM10 or Sumiko Pearl cartridge?
Thanks for all your input. I took a second look at my Bellari and found out it had a bad channel. Not a total loss because I have a lot of ideas for my next cartridge. Don't know whether I am relieved or dissapointed because now I no longer have a... 
Ortofon Super OM10 or Sumiko Pearl cartridge?
After listening to what everyone has said, I have ruled out going back to the Ortofon OM10. As for the Denon or the Benz Micro cartridges, I am limited to moving magnet types because of my Bellari preamp. I play rock on my turntable; so it would b... 
Klipsch Speakers for a low power tube amp.
Are there any other makes of speakers that you know of that are 90db or better sensitivity, and are still moderately priced (Less than 6 or $700 a pair)? What concerns me about Klipsch is that when I buy them I will not know exactly what I will en... 
Good low-price cartridge for listening to rock.
Thanks again for your input, and I would like to add that I have seen some of the reviews mentioned. As for my cartridge setup, I followed the directions that were given to me with the MMF-5 and set the tracking force at about 1.5 grams, and then ... 
Good low-price cartridge for listening to rock.
I think I am going to go with the AT 440 MLa. One last thing I would like to say. With my above mentioned setup(The MMF5 with the Ortofon Super OM-10)CDs in my opinion seem to sound more detailed. Keep in mind that I am using a sony cd player that... 
Good low-price cartridge for listening to rock.
I am really leaning toward the AT 440mla. One last question if you can answer this. Since my new amp does not have a balance control and the new AT cartridge has twin magnets (I think?)- did anybody notice uneven volume with this cartridge? I migh...
