| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,Do you have an opinion on the sonic characteristic differences between the ATML-150, Shure 97, and the Nagaoka MP50?Also, I'm wondering if you feel that all moving magnets need a 100K load or just certain ones.Thank you for your contribu... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Raul,I am new to the world of moving magnets but wouldn't mind trying them out. I know there are always variables, but what do you notice for sonic differences in your system when comparing the ATML-150, Shure M97, and Nagaoka MP50?Do you nee... | |
| Artemis Labs Ph-1 owners..... Hi Dave,I am not using a step up transformer right now. I'm using a wood bodied Benz MO.9 which has .9mV output straight into the Artemis Labs Ph-1 which has no internal step-ups either. I'm thinking about getting a new cartridge and would conside... | |
| Artemis Labs Ph-1 owners..... Happy New Year and a big thank you to all of you for trying to help me with this.The problem that I am having is that although I really love this phono stage, I do hear some tube rush at my listening chair with normal volume levels, which for me i... | |
| Artemis Labs Ph-1 owners..... Hi Dave,I really appreciate your response. This is the kind of information that I'm looking for. I really am trying to find out how many mV's (whether from combination of step-up transformer with cartridge or a cartridge straight in) I can put int... | |
| Artemis Labs Ph-1 owners..... Hi Glide 3,Thank you for responding. I was hoping more owners would have responded so I could get a better feel for the cartridge output range that works well with this phono stage. I have both phoned and emailed Artemis Labs directly and they won... | |
| Benz Micro M2 loading I'm using the Benz MO.9 which has impedance of 21ohms and an output of .9mV I've been giving it a load right around 250 and it loves it. | |
| Aural Thrills 300B mono amps... Ladavid and Jek,Ladavid, your bullet points mirrored exactly what I was thinking and therefore the reason for my looking for some opinions. Thank you Jek for sharing your experiences. The other thing that caught my eye was that they were claiming ... | |
| Benz LP and SUT's... Hi Brianhutch,Thank you for your response. I think I may not have been clear in regards to how I wrote my previous post...I'm using the Artemis Labs Ph-1 which only has about 50db or so of gain and no step ups. The Pl-1 is basically the same as mi... | |
| Benz LP and SUT's... Rudolffzigray,Thank you so much for sharing the experiences you have had with the various Rubys. I have heard good praises in regards to the Bent Mu and trannies from the Stevens and Billington as well, but had no idea if any of those would work w... | |
| Benz LP and SUT's... Hi Dgad,Thanks for the response. Yes, the Benz Ebony LP has a 38 ohm internal resistance and a .28mV output. I must say that I have never understood the relationship between cartridge and SUT impedances. I'll be using the Artemis Labs Ph-1 ( http:... | |
| J.M. Reynaud Trente vs. Harbeth Compact 7es3 I appreciate the responses. I have heard over the last few months from people that really, really love their speakers. Some of them have Reynaud's and some have Harbeth's and some have Spendors. All different sounding speakers, but their owners se... | |
| Difference between micro line and gyger s stylus Hi Jonathan,Thank you for taking the time to give such an in-depth response and helping me as well as others understand this better. Please forgive my ignorance, but when you mentioned records made of "molded styene", how do you know when one is m... | |
| Difference between micro line and gyger s stylus Hi Larryi,Thank you for your response. I currently use a wood bodied Benz MO.9 which I think has an elliptical stylus. I think it sounds great on my analog rig. However, I'm thinking of getting a Ruby3H and I see the older ones have the micro line... | |
| Hickok 752 tube tester.... Thank you Rodman for the tip on the 6922. That's thinking outside the box.AudioFeil, thank you for the lead on Bill Waters. I will try contacting him. Sounds like a great resource!I appreciate your help. Thank you both. |
