Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Fleib, I am not sure what you mean with 'that consideration is specific to each cart.' If you mean with 'consideration' cantilever/stylus combo than I can ask you about all those efforts you made with different styli for the same cart.Because...

Banquo, It seems to be obvious that Sony made those integrated cart/headshells for their own turntables/arm combo's. As deed Ikeda for his own tonearms. But the difference is this. According to J. Carr the magnets by FR-7 series are so big that no...

Dear Banquo, '+/- 3mm'? I ever made a joke pretending not to be able to see whatever fraction of just 1 mm. Then I got reprimand from Dertonarm and Raul togehter. As you probable know they often disagree but not in this case. Since then I never ma...

Dear Raul, 'I am losted with all the cartridges Axel has...', etc. But I am, and I assume others are interested to read about cantilevers and styli differences. We are well informed about the aluminum/line contact combo but not about : boron, sapp...

Dear Raul, I am sorry but I don't understand what you meanwith 'not only that but even you can't make a precise/accurate cantilever alignment!!!'. I have no idea to what 'not only that' refer nor what you mean by 'precise/accurate cnatilever aligh...

Addendum, I should of course say: Raul and you probable discovered the 'best buy' in the history, etc. Sorry Raul. BTW we speak about the 'aluminum cantilever' as if this kind is somehow inferior in comparison to the 'exotic kinds'. But 'aluminum'...

Hi John, I was not aware about those Astatic replacementsfor the G 800 otherwise I would try those first. But consudering the price of both , the cart and the stylus, you have probable discovered the 'best buy' in the history of this thread.Regards,

Hi John, 'virtual' I own Anna (Ortofon) and 'actual' I posted my G800 to Axel with the instruction: 'the same as Raul'. But I added 'no exotic cantilever/stylus' because Ihave no idea what Raul ordered or , more 'actual', what his retip will cost ...

Dear Dgob, We both try to inform other members about the Glanz and Astatic carts. While both kinds are not easily available one may have luck and if one find ,say, Glanz 31 l or E even more luck because of the price difference with the Astatic MF ...

Dear Dgob, You obviously overlooked my connection betweenwishful thinking and logic. From only two carts of bothkinds (Astatic and Glanz) I constructed the 'all quantor'by help of which the universal statements are made. Nowby Astatic versions MF-...

Porto, our Professor assume that everybody has a cat sohe deduced that you also must have (at least) one.

Dear Dgob, Wishful thinking is a strong psychological partof our hobby. But I added logic to it as follow: all thetop line Astatic and Glanz carts have the same body (aka 'generator') and the only difference are the styli.According to this logic t...

Dear Dgob, thanks for your good intentions but I don'tbelieve that you have as much of spare time as I have tosearch. I am a retired civil servant with good pension...Dear Vetterone, I think that my Astatic MF 200 sounds better with the stylus fro...

Dear Dgob, This to me is like dating Michelle Pfeifer orNocole Kidman and suggesting to us to try the same. Now those 'girls' at least exist and are in theoretical or imaginary sense attainable. But I have never seen the Glanz 7 or 5 nor the Techn...
