| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lew, I don't mean to sound picky but your comments are normally quite precise. In describing your 980LZS audition you stated, "This brought it back to life, so there is some life left in the stylus after all." That could imply to a newbie that pla... | |
| Well Tempered Classic or Technics SP10Mk2 Bob, looks like you have sufficient response to make your decision. But I'll add a little reinforcement.Years ago I owned an original (square motor) WTTT and arm. It played music but was responsive to improvements such as the new black platter, a ... | |

| DBP-10 Protractor Instructions...... I have read Raul's posts for the past three years or more, exchanged personal messages with him, and had the pleasure of meeting him in person when he visited my city. I believe he has been one of the most valued posters on Audiogon in sharing his... | |

He always claimed it was the most musically accurate cartridge he ever owned (he has quite a bit of experience making ... | |

| Mono cartridge classification Jonathan, thank you so much for your clarifications and added information. I was guilty of using the term "narrow profile" but in my own defense, I was thinking front to back, not side to side for stylus dimensions.Your information makes me wish e... | |
| Mono cartridge classification Hesson11, I've looked into EQ devices, including the Re-Equalizer, but have not purchased anything as yet. I began a major change in my system last year, going to HE speakers and a 300B PP amp. I've also picked up a few cartridges following inspir... | |
| Mono cartridge classification Hesson11, thanks for the link to Carr's information. Nothing like going to the horse's mouth! Here is information I posted on VA some time ago. Mr. Carr's information seems to correct part of that -"I believe you must first consider which records ... | |
| Mono cartridge classification Hesson11, I've posted comments on selecting stylus size relative to the records to be played here and elsewhere and thank you for your added descriptions. I've also read the suggestion that Lyra narrow profile styli are recommend for mono playback... | |
| I want to know if the kuzma stabi s with stogi s Never used the S-version arm or table but I've found the Kuzma products to be very well engineered and built. I've owned a Stogi Reference (arm) and Stabi (table) for years and would not hesitate to recommend them. The more I've learned about thes... | |
