Sorry chakster, My remarks about AKG are indeed addressed toCleeds whom I somehow confused with you (grin). However my mistake about AKG and Cleeds does not apply for the Signets about which we had our dispute .  
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear chakster, we again disagree in our valuation. As answer toyour post our Professor first quoted your statement and then wrotean exteded explication of the ''real state of afairs'' with Signets. I don't think that his intention was to ''prove''...
