Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear chakster, I checked your Luxman and assume that ''salepending'' apply to you (grin). Since Kondo san we all believein (old Italian) silver merely because we assume that ''the higherthe price the better the object of our disire''. While I don'... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear chakster, You are an novice while I am member of this forumsince 2007. Back then my German was much better than my Englishso I become also member of the so called ''German group'' (alias''German mafia'' according to Raul). This group consiste... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear chakster, I thought that you ar the fastest learning novice inour forum. The best student Prof. Raul ever had. That is to saywith the highest ''learning curve'' among his students. The problemhowever is that he hardly ever mentioned MC carts ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear chakster, I can't remember when I  bought an MM cart lasttime. I am only interested in MC kinds. Since the so clleed ''debtcrisis'' it become very difficultt to sell our stuff. So we need to beinventive. As you stated eBay and PayPal are very... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear chakster, The problem is that one is never sufficiently plain.I should add as argument by my single MM retip that to it makeno sense to retip an MM cart which cost (me) 100 euro for 250euro. I try not to make the same mistake twice. This expl... 
Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model)
I am sorry to spoil the admiration but in my opinion neither EPA100 nor the Mk2 version are suitable for the (LO) MC carts. The ''damped counter weight'' is obviously made for the MM carts.Aka lightweight . I (re) sold my MK 2 after two months . I...

Dear chakster, While I am talking about ''apples'' you are talkingabout ''apples and pears'' . As if I own just one kid and you atwin (grin). I am obssesed with MC carts you with both kinds.But the cantilever/stylus combo's in both are like ''appl... 
Would you use an Ortofon A90 on a Jelco tonearm?
Bimasta, Your first two sentences are contradictory in the sensethat praise and critical remarks don't mix well. In my reading you wrote: ''I enjoy your post but what you write make no sense''. You ''argument'' was : ''my Koetsu has no hole in its... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
chakster, because Axel retired I wanted to try the ''Expert stylus''about whom I was informed by my ''brother Don''. According tohim Expert stylus made those Stereohedron styli. I had no ideathat they also produce styli. But they have their own ''...

Addition. I forget to comment on Bimasta's sarcastic remarkabout my contributions. The solution is very easy but you obviously overlooked this possibility also. You only need to skip my contributions.  
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
chakster, I also noticed that all (?) new boron cantilevers arerods. The only way to glue them to the so called ''joint pipe''is to use an aluminum tube in which the boron rod is glued.So while we pretend to have boron cantilevers we actualy havea... 
Would you use an Ortofon A90 on a Jelco tonearm?
Bimasta, you overlooked that the statements you ascribe to me are made by Axel Schurholz with more then 40 years experienceas retipper. Not to complicate the story I deed not mention theproblem with glue. All those ''lost styli'' are lost because ... 
Would you use an Ortofon A90 on a Jelco tonearm?
stringreen, Yes , retipping the stylus is much more dificult to dothen cantilever/stylus combo. Finding the right stylus which willfit in the hole of the existing cantilever is very time consuming .Then the stylus need to be oriented with the hard... 
Would you use an Ortofon A90 on a Jelco tonearm?
sturgus, Your statement is not clear to me. Do you mean thatreplacing the stylus only in the existing cantilever is more expensivethen the whole cantilever/ stylus combo? This would be strangebecause boron cantilever+ stylus cost about 500 euro in...

I hope that nobody among us owns a Ferrari. The poor personneed to post his Ferrari to Italy for the new tires. According toour Mexican oracle that is. He also thinks that Van den Hul andOrtofon own their own jewel company where those remarcablest...
