| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Thuchan, I would never dream to call you a 'bad guy' but in the context of this 'cart sickness' I may, by a way of speaking. To follow all your carts recommendation I would need to marry some of the (old) Rockeffeler widows first. But for the... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Henry, For a long time I thought to have just one single but serious deviation: the tonearms. But the reason was esthetical not practical. I admire the 'mechanical beauty' of those objects of art. But you are the last person in the known univ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Don, I got Axel's video from Mario , one of our members who introduced himself as a friend of Daniel.The text by the video has as title: 'The stylus pope from Geseke' . Axel is described as a former radio-technician, 69 years old and as known... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Thuchan, The FR-cartridge chapter will need to waitbecause, to use Lew's excuse 'the price was such that itwas impossible to resist' so I just bought: Benz LP S, Roksan Shiraz (EMT) and Glanz 5 . | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Don, I am not sure if I and Raul are on 'speaking terms' so you should inform him about the Jico alternative to the retip adventure. He already made Axel rich but intend to make also Van den Hul even richer than this guy already is. If Raul h... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Don, At last one classless, proletarian cart of highquality for the people. That is to say if the valuationby some capitalist can be trusted. I thought that there is'some' difference between the A&R Cambridge/ Jico and theone which is twe... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Henry, 'history repeats itself' it seems. As was the case with the B-60 'original' versus 'replica', for theprice difference between FR-7 versus 7f or 7fz I am happywith my FR-7. Besides I wish and grant my Aussie friendthe best of the best. ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Henry, You already know that I am a sick person in connection with the tonearms. Add to that the paradox of an not technical guy fond of technical specs. To my mindthe FR-7 and FR-7 f differ only qua styli. FR-7 line contact, FR-7f conical st... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Dover, I was not sure how to translate German 'highermidds' and was also not sure if the 'upper midds' is a moreadequate English expression. But assuming that technicalpersons among us can determine this frequency range then the kind of the n... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? According to the review in the German Magazine 'Das Ohr' (The ear; nr.7, 1984) there are two 'tiny faults' by the FR-64S. In the higher midds there is a 'tiny roughness'by vocals with a small accentuation of the guttural(sound).The second is by th... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Henry, 'the medical researcher and the lawyer' will never claim to have esthetical feelings or insight comparable to an architect. Besides they are sometimespragmatic. More in particular about the money. BTW I already consulted my machinist a... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lew, With an 'infinite' number of arguments to yours (mind) disposal there is always the possibility of some contradictions. For example: 'practical'? = one box CD.But then: '...in favor of an EPA 100 ,which seems more practical to mount'. Th... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Addendum, I forget to elaborate on the Japanese Kurt from Hawaii. He made much effort to produce those 'exact replicas' of the B-60 but he also mentioned that those are made in Japan. He sold his first batch of 10 (?) for $500 each but was not abl... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? If our Lew was a lawyer he would be certainly already arich guy. When we all are out of arguments he just starts.Henry made a whole list of arguments , in a neat order, butwith one single strock (the difference between $1100 and$400) all of them w... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lew, When I wanted to add a second tonearm to my KuzmaS.R. the space on the left back side was not even suitablefor an 9'' tonearm. That is why I ordered the arm as wellas the armpod by the Reed. Now it is only my quess that youwill need an 9... |
