Anyone tried the Ortofon Concorde century Cartridge?
Dear @aberyclark  : for to many years to remember now and as @mikelavigne  I owned and own Ortofon cartridges along other over 150-200 MM/MI/IM/MC cartridges.Ortofon is a warranty of excellence and nothing more and always will be " there " for you... 
Problem with phono stage
Dear @jjss49  : Thank's for that but I'm still learning and willing to each single day, far away to be an expert by my self.The problem with that gentleman is that he likes to be the " salt " in every single audio subject even that in almost all a... 
Problem with phono stage
@atmasphere :  "  it is a mistaken idea to assume that the peak has an influence at only one frequency....""wrong you are and if you understand it then a misunderstood because I even talked/posted about harmonics developed but in the Nagaoka case... 
Problem with phono stage
You said:"""  I get a little bit better detail and bass extension BUT it also much noisier. """Why the Lehmann? it's a true up-grade over what you own.If you are not willing to invest what your overall system needs and " crying " for then put on ... 
Problem with phono stage
Dear @emilm : Normally when we make a true up grade in any room/system the new item comer will disclose several hidden " problems/distortions " that due to inferior design/quality of the other items in the system can't disclose it.That " humble " ...

Problem with phono stage
Dear friends: Some very well know MM/MI/IM cartridge inductance values:Stanton Series 100: 270mHAKG P25MD :  170mHP100LE ( fabolous/unique.): 90mHTechnics EPC100CMK4:  33mHAudio Technica ATML-180: 210mHAudio Technica ATML-170: 380mhSonus Gold: 150... 
Problem with phono stage
Weird/curious that you choosed in Nagaoka IM design 500 and not 300mH. Why did you do that?300mh is way nearest to the real Nagaoka value than 500mh and with 300mh the resonace frequency is at 24.6khz Way different and as we can see through the Le... 
Problem with phono stage
Dear @emilm and friends : first than all Nagaoka is not MM design but IM similar to MI and the like where normally internal inductance is not really high ( say over 600. ) so with that 150/200 capacitance in the Lehmann and due that has a high ove... 
Problem with phono stage
Dear @emilm : Do it you a favor and forgeret about that IC cable capacitabnce for the moment.First than all the Lehmann must be perfectly set up for the Nagaoka 5mv. MP-110 cartridge. Your phono stage comes with several alternatives for set up and... 
Vertical tracking force for Lyra etna lambda sl catridge
@newtoncr : Other two importants subjects with the V tonearm is that is a balanced design and you must/should be use it in static mode the other issue is that the tonearm is well damped design: magnesium is good self dampened material and the tone... 
Vertical tracking force for Lyra etna lambda sl catridge
@newtoncr the first steps for any cartridge set up is to own a small round level and first check at the TT platter center ( nearest to the spindle. ) that must be dead centered in the level, then make the same at the TT arm board, next in the tone...

Dear @newtoncr : That you are wrong with that set up and that just forgeret about those " professionals " you mentioned and put in touch directly with the only gentleman that can help you: J.Carr Lyra designer.Btw, @geof3 the OP cartridge and the ...

newtoncr : or ( a big or. ) a phono stage or loaded phono stage that can't honor the cartridge very top quality levels.R.
