Dear Timeltel: +++++ " Any audio system has limitations ( many kind. ) and is this limitation system factor the one that permit or preclude to " hear things " or hear things at different quality level.Your system as my system and other people syst... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Halcro: Btw, other than in this thread and because is more easy to find out you can read in the 20SS review what Dgarretson posted.In VE there are more 20SS owners that really enjoy the cartridge high quality performance.I'm not promoting not... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Timeltel/Halcro: IMHO a main difference between the Signet freak, the 155LC and the TK10ML3 is on the " I'm here "/cartridge presence factor level:IMHO the freak has the higher level where the 155LC is in between and the ML3 is the one where ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Timeltel and all: I finished using the AT 1503 tonearm and the MG-10 headshells for all " four " cartridges: 5e, 155LC and TK10ML2. Halcro, as you point out, as with the 20SS these cartridges does not likes the G-940.I will be briefly on what... | |
| Graham Phantom B44 2 or Taela ? Dear Lewm: +++++ " o the wooden arm wand in combination with a euphonic kind of "resonance", for want of a better word, that could occur in the unipivot tonearms I used to listen to in days of yore... " +++++as almost always but especialy with ton... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Halcro: Usualy I listen at 83db-84db but when I'm testing my system or a " new " item/cartridge I always make two tests: I heard at around 76db on SPL ( continuous at seat position. ) and at around 95db.The latest one give you very clear the ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Halcro: I forgot, please test the FR at continuous 95db SPL at seat position with around peaks on the 102db for at least 20-30 minutes and see what " happen ", what is what you experienced?Regards and enjoy the music,Raul. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Halcro: The one I tested was the 6SE. About compliance you can check against the XV-1 (with VTF in between: 1.8grs to 2.0 grs. ) and see how the FR cantilever with the same VTF than the XV-1 ( I just do it. ) goes down a little further that t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Waynefia: IMHO the 140LC is worth for a new stylus ( after you tested what you have right now, maybe works fine. ) or the 155LC up date.Five dollars for it?, that's a real bargain. I think the best you can do is test that cartridge for you ca... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear friends/Halcro: I already have on hand the FRs cartridges 6 and 5 ones ( courtesy of Mario. He worked for five years in Japan. ) along the Signet 5ea.I was " playing " with all them and permit me to report my findings first on the FRs:first t... | |

| Phono Input or new Phono preamp? Dear Fatgh0st: IMHO your KW500 is a lot better that what the people here seems to me they are thinking.I agree with Johnnyb53, IMHO the best you can do is to work/test your MF KW500 with a good MM cartridge ( as a fact your unit was designed for u... | |
| What defines a high compliance cartridge vs low Dear Mechants: I don't have nothing to add on what other people posted other that could be nice and a " surprise " to you if you try/test that Goldring 1042 cartridge in the VPI set up. That cartridge has a lot better quality performance that you ... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Chris /all: The " naked TT project " is similar as what happen with the MM/MI alternative: many people are trying/testing with no posts in the threads.Both alternatives are so un-expensive and so easy to achieve that IMHO it is an audio " was... | |
| A Copernican View of the Turntable System Dear Halcro: You are IMHO spot-on in your last two posts.On the first " plinths "+ subject we need to think " too " that not only the floor works as a plinth but the Earth's nucleus too!!!!In the other side a debate exist only because the ones tha... |
