Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Dgob: Do you read what J.Carr posted on phono stages?, IMHO that's how your Phonolinepreamp was designed but on " steroids ".No I'm not presume on that design but facts are that it " falls " under that description and was so " tempt " to leav... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Nandric: IMHO the " euphonics " is in the designer hands and not in a specific " in self " part of that design.A designer can choose to achieve an accurate and neutral sound/performance in the same way that he can choose different level of it... 
Cartridge Loading and Compliance Laws
Dear Jeremy72: Laws?, IMHO there are no laws about but only theory about: that sometimes works and sometimes does not it depends on cartridge overall characteristics and tonearm it self.IMHO it is not easy to take as a rule/laws a " generalization... 
A Copernican View of the Turntable System
Dear T_bone: I understand what " detractors " speaks and asks.I think that you sooner or latter will be HERE. This excercise is worth to try it even if at the end you don't like what you hear, a learning one.Regards and enjoy the music,Raul. 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Nandric: Characteristics ( stand alone ) of any material are at our hand all over the net.For me speaks on aluminum ( or other material ) alone has no sense in the cartridge overall design.No, I'm not " angry " for your post, things are that ... 
A Copernican View of the Turntable System
Dear Halcro: Way before we go into the tonearm isolated/stand alone arm boards some TT manufacturers already had in their designs like: Red Point, Kuzma, Galibier, etc, etc.My point here is that I can't remember any single post against/questioning... 
A Copernican View of the Turntable System
Dear friends: Several yeras ago when I bring to Agon my first naked TT fashion subject and latter the isolated armpod for that naked TT I remember that almost all the people that argue against were persons that argue against it with out having any... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Fleib: Overall I agree with you. No, there is no " one size fit all ". The cantilever been a critical an important factor on cartridge design is just one of the carrtridge design factors, that's that is only part of the cartridge. Of course t... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Timeltel: I bought not one Signet sample but three ( I already sold one. ) and there is no difference.Btw, I think you missed my post on AT line. What I remember of it is that it is near a Siny123 post with his opinion about.Yes, the Astrion ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Timeltel: I'm sorry but IMHO you are wrong on the Signet subject: it is to easy to compare the 20SS plastic assembly and the Signet ones and " see " why the Signets have more resonances and no I don't think my Signets are " defective " but th... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Timeltel: +++++ " pre-digital influence carts, " +++++I don't know what you mean with that but IMHO there are great cartridge designs before and after digital era.Digital starts with many quality performance problems but if there is one area ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Dlaloum: It appears that almost " float " around resonances/distortions that comes from different product inside/sources and in different kind of it.The Virtuoso has some design characteristics that helps a lot, additional with what you poste... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Tubetan: Talking for me. MM or MI does not really matters on the subject.I already heard The Voice and the SMMC1/2 , these all SS cartridges.The SMMC1/2 are B&O MI original designs modified by SS and marketed by SS.Several times I posted ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Griffithds/Fleib: The alternative to find out how " long " could goes the Virtuoso with different cantilever/stylus approaches is a good one too especially because in stock status showed very good quality performance.Of course that as Fleib p... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Griffithds: I'm with you.In the other side the Fleib ruby cantilever option is other alternative with way different targets. As J.Carr posted more than once: if you like your cartridge " signature " then re-tip with the same/similar cantileve...
