| Anyone familiar with Ikeda 9 series (cantileverless kind) MC cartridges?

| FR66s vs Ikeda IT-407 CR tonearms My dear ddriveman, Complaining about me by my friendLew will not help you in any way. But if we assume that thisis a kind of ''indiscretion'' how then about your ''strict discretion''about the price of either Dertonarm's or Ikeda's rewire (grin)? | |
| Anyone familiar with Ikeda 9 series (cantileverless kind) MC cartridges? Thanks dear ddriveman, My only problem with 9C,mk 2 is the(very) low compliance. I can hardly get 50 microns ''pure'' with tracking capability test records. Speculating or rather deducingfrom VTF 2 g by R versions in comparison with 2.5 g for my ... | |

| FR66s vs Ikeda IT-407 CR tonearms Dear driverman, If I am well informed Dertonarm used Ikedasilver wire for his rewire. Ikeda himself also used ,uh, Ikedasilver wire while the original FR-66 was also wired with Ikedasilver wire. So no wonder you was not able to hear any difference... | |
| FR66s vs Ikeda IT-407 CR tonearms @ddriveman , I like you very much but don't like contradictorystatements. Your last two statements are such. If you preferredDertonarm's rewire how from this follow next rewire by Ikeda? BTW I assume that posting the arm to Germany is moreconvenie... | |
