Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Priso, Timeltel (aka Herr Professor) referd to Lencoheaven in his post reg. Acutex carts (12-10-11). You should ask him about your problem with Lenco heaven.I was confused because of the conical stylus which I only mentioned in connection wit... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Priso, I am sorry but I never owned any of Denons products. My reference to Thomas 'Denon 103 and conical stylus' was probable in the context of the 'Italian Swiss'Reto Luigi Andreoli who 'swears' by conical styli. He produced the Magic Diamo...

Marakanetz, I am very disapointed that you totally overlooked the central committee of the communist party (wherevere).Regards, 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Mike, The price is always an issue but you overlookedthe MM collector which I mentioned. Even Raul need to resell some of his and then those 'refreshment prices' are relevant irrespective of Rauls 'soul'. If you own just one or two MM carts y... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Stating the obvious is some kind of 'intellectual povery'.But while this is actually an MM thread those retip specualations are mainly about MC carts. By collecting MM carts one of course needs some 'exit strategy' which usualyimply the resell of ...

The problem with metaphors is that anyone is free or allowed to have his own reading or interpretation. This way we may surpass the MM thread...Regards, 
Usher DMD tweeter upgrade: worth it?
Vinylphile, You forget to mention the price of DMD in Taiwan. For such a price anyone would try I think. However by production of any driver there are deviations of, say,3dB at least. Next to presellection of individual driversfor a given speaker ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
To many choice possibilties may be confusing. But the moreinteresting question should (then) be who is better in onekind of repair then the other. I think that we already havea good idea about Axel and Peter but not about Van den Hul,Northwest and... 
help with Thorens headshell
I am not sure if all Thorens headshells are the same quaconstruction. But to my knowledge they have nothing in common with the SME standard. The 4 pins Stanwal mentioned are in the headshell and the contra part in the armtube has4 entry 'holes' wi...

Dear Lew, I should know better. You obviously prefer the'morbid' Portuquese humor above the 'peaceful' Balkan kind.But when the time for your Koetsu comes you will probablesing some other tune.Dear Raul, Regarding Van den Hul I wish that I was Rau... 
help with Thorens headshell
Aaronz28, The only way to find one is to watch ebay.uk andebay.com. Your 'removable headshell standardized so that any would work' is an enigma to me. Ever seen an S shaped Thorens tonearm? SME 'standard' apply only for the connection with the arm... 
Zeta tonearm serial number
The Zeta was in high regard in Holland in the 80s and recommended for the Linn LP-12 instead of FR-64s which was considered to be too heavy for the Linn (springs). If I remember well the Zeta was twice as expensive. Even thenthe rewiring issue was... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Lew, 'Conspiracy' supposition is is usualy connected with secrecy. In Holland we have two retip services which behave like Fort Knox. One can approach Vanden Hul only via the Dutch dealers and nobody knows his address. For the other firm one ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Lew, The problem by the retip sevices is that thecustomer has no idea who actually deed the repair. To attribute some qualification to a 'collective being' is obvious speculation. Does , for example, Van den Hul the repairs himself? I don't e...
