| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul, There are some problems with your 'level- and learning curve' assumptions. I will use some other kind of comparison to 'enlighten' my point. I consider myself to be a good chess player at an similar 'level' as my audiophile capabilitys.... | |
| Uni-Protractor Set tonearm alignment Wrm 57, There is this German saying: 'If theory and practice coincide then they are probable both false'. However in theory there should be no difference between theMint Lp and the UNI-pro in your case. So, I assume, you like Dertonarm more then Y... | |
| Usher DMD tweeter upgrade: worth it? Hi Rob, The 'strange thing' is that Usher, while producing excelent drivers themself , buy for their BE series bass and midbass drivers in Germany. There are two Eton 11'' drivers in my BE-20. One can see those in many 'exclusive'speakers. They ca... | |
| Usher DMD tweeter upgrade: worth it? Bezimienny, My compliment for your 'sound' description ofthe sound (differences) you observed. While I assume thatUsher try it best in particular for the BE series I am suprised to hear that GR Research crossover make 'little' difference. This may... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lew, 'Caveat emptor' is an old 'rule' from the RomanLaw. But the buyer has the right to demand what is promissed or suggested in the listing. I assume that nobody will risk a negative feedback for, say, $200. However one should always ask abo... | |
| Reed tonearm w/ Raven One table-how's the match ? Dear Jarret, I agree with Dobbins that Red Cedar is thebest 'universal' choice ( aka suitabble for the most moderncarts) but that 'they all are oiled and their density difference tend to diminish' make no sense to me. The difference is in the eff.... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lew, My electronic training is 'blanco' but from Lukatschek ( the owner/designer by Benz) I understand that the low impendance is the function of the 'bobin' material( iron or something else ) and the number of coil windings.He uses ruby-plat... | |
| What defines a good tonearm I am of course reluctant to start a new 'war' but our 'own' Raul and Dertonarm must have some very interesting ideas about this subject matter. They should be able to enlighten pros and contras of the unipivot, the usual steel bearings or the jewe... | |
| Reed tonearm w/ Raven One table-how's the match ? Suteetat, Vidmantas get's feedback from his customers anddealers about the used carts. In my case he had no info about the Phase Tech P-3G so I made an 'educated quess' for Pernambucco wand (2A,12"; 27g.) and am very happy with the result. So obvi... | |
| Reed tonearm w/ Raven One table-how's the match ? According to the Reed own R&D the Red cedar, Pernambucco and Panzerholz have the best measured 'properties'. But because of the different (wood) mass the choice of the wood kind should be made as Lew described. All the Reed tonearmsare hand ma... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lew, It was Dlaloum proposition that 'all MC's ,etc.,butthe waveform was very squere. The MM ... but the waveformwas somewhat curved', which Dertonarm addressed and try toanswer with his hypothesis about the the mass of the cantilever ,etc. B... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dertonarm made a causal statement :'the ability to reproduce a clean squere wave responce..',etc. A singular causal statement imply a (general) causal law. Something like 'whenever the mass is x , then..'.I myself was also suprised to learn that t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Geoch, In Holland we have this saying: 'love makes blind'. T_bone, Dertonarm nor I mentioned the FR-66. We all were refering to the FR-64S. Only Halcro mentioned both without any reservation. But he is an architect and this kind of human kind... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Acman3, Thucham and I share for some strange reasonsthe Balkan humour. To my suprise Dertonarm also want to accompany us by pretending to be anxious to name some tonearm by name. I had no idea that he is anxious of anything or anyone. You hav... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Geoch, Your response is an obvious 'argument' for theemotions involved. We all should defend and fight for our'selected one'. Even those who own a whole 'harem' seem to have their own Scheherezade.Regards, |
