Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Frogman: I can understand that you are not fully yet " convince " on the MM/MI alternative superiority against the MC alternative.Once I was convinced on the superiority of the MC alternative ( mainly because the AHE give no other choice. ) a... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
dear Jcarr: Thank's to join us this time.It is " curious " ( and not rare. ) that a person like Jcarr likes more a cartridge in a manufacturer line that is not the top of the line as is the Fr-6E against the " lower " model as the Fr-5E.So after t... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear dertonarm: Even in the FR or Ikeda tonearm the 702 Fr-7f and the Ikeda9 ( I prefer the Micro Seiki MAX for these cartridges. ) can't match what Halcro pointed out on the MM/MI cartridges.In my experiences the nearest ( to Halcro subject. ) LO...

Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Downunder: +++++ " I think the success of these seeming anomalies of tonearm/cartridge matching simply show us that the data (for compliance and tonearm effective mass) we are given to plug into the equation are crap. Garbage in; garbage out.... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear halcro: +++++ " Wdi,I started off with my Empire 4000D/III mounted in the low-mass unipivot Grace 940G which I imagine is quite close to your Morch DP-6?Surprisingly I found the 4000D/III a better match to the high-mass Fidelity Research FR-6...

Dear Peterayer: Of course that Dertonarm idea is very good and IMHO Viridian maybe don't understand in deep the whole subject of that " tool ".I posted an example of what dertonarm means in the thread:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?eanlg&...

Dear Dgob: Yesterday I was lucky enough to win an ebay auction for a Micro Seiki LF-7 ( variable flux. Non integrated headshell but standard 1/2" mount. ) that I assume is no other than the Glanz ( moving flux. ) MFG-71E.Every single MS specs coin...
