| Do wooden arms warp Before the Reed started their tonearm production they firstcompared all kinds of different materials for the arm wand.The conclusion was that wood is the best material for thepurpose (see: www.reed.lt ). I can't remember that Fletcherever stated: ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Sony XL series? I know how popular this series is. I ownXL 44L, XL 88 L and XL 88 D (D= diamond cantilever/styluscombo). The problem however is they are irreparable. Thebody is glued togehter from two egual parts and can be onlyopened by cutting t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Well this thread started on 01-15-08 and the most of usstill need to guess about the right VTF and anti-skate.The so called 'recommended VTF' between, say, 1,5-2,5 gmake no sense. If one looks at Jan Alearts specs one cansee what is possible. Anyw... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi David, Lucky me you obviously had no problem to understand that I was referring to the real cannons.Those wich are used to kill people. Reference is our connection with the so called reality. The corespondence theory of truth assume the relatio... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm&Frogman, Since Frege's canon that the sense of a wordis its contribution to the meaning of the (whole)sentence it is not usual to ask for the meaning of a word on itsown. This is the called 'contextual approach' in logic,linguistic and ph... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? World authorities are like philosophers. To refute one, oneonly need to read some other.I vividly remember how proud I was when I got 90 microns tracking ability from my combo Ortofon MC 30/FR-64 (without'S' = aluminum tube). But then I come the a... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Tracking versus tracing. My comrade Don and my friend Fleib are both obsessed with styli and cantilevers. I thinkthat 'our' Raul, despite of his learning curve, missed thedifference involved. He assumed that 'tracking capability' is somehow very i... | |
| Not as much activity on analog here There are , lucky us, still those 'big personalities' among us: J.Carr,Thuchan, Lewm, Dover, some Aussie, Herr Professor, Fleib ,etc. But considering my age those 'old times' were much better. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Frogman, I was very impressed with a lecture by the Dutchscientist Casimir. The lecture was about a possible nuclear war. He quoted some Danish saying: 'the noble art of loosingface may save the human race'. My 'face' was involved by mysecond e... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Acman3, Gyger styli are designed by Van den Hul. Thefirst was Gyger I (= Van den `Hul1 ) with vertical radiusof 85 micron and horizontal of 2 micron. This one was difficult to produce so Van den Hul was asked to designGyger II with vertical radius... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Banquo, It is no my intention to add to the confusion butI own (owned) 3 x JVC X-1. By my first I broke the cantilever copying Fleib by trying to bend the beryllium cantilever(grin).Then I bought one without stylus (aka the body). Then my comrad D... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Sorry Fleib, It is not 'the native languge' but the 'native nature'. As a Serbian warrior I am easelly provoced. Actually we, the Serbians don't even need a reason to start a war. One would call this 'pure passion'. My other 'weakness' is thst I l... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Our present technical ( aka 'scientific') member Fleib is obssesed with cantilevers, inductance, capacitance and loading and convinced that from those parameters he can deduce 'objective information' how any MM cart should sound.As Kant put it: we... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Fleib, Raul mentioned this JVC X-1 some time ago but I was not able to find a single one for two years and give up. But in the last three months I got three samples. One of which in NOS condition. Your specs apply to this one: beryllium cantile... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Fleib, JVC proudly mentioned their 'pulse train' methodto anylize 'tranducers' among which our beloved carts.'Your phase problem' is also mentioned as objective. To mytaste the X-1 is the best MM cart I have ever heard so far.This is not my 'fi... |
