Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Jtgofish: The 600LAC is a good Empire cartridge ( like almost all Empire's. ).I never heard the LPgear stylus replacement and I think there is no SAS replacement for the 600LAC.If you are going to buy a stylus replacement maybe is better to g... 
STP distance. Is it critical ?
Dear Nandric: ++++ " But we allare trying to get the stylus on those null points. But ifwe use,say,SME V with holes and ...." +++++I can't understand what you exactly men with the V.SME V was designed with Baerwald geometry, its null point are rig...

Dear Lewm: I'm refering on both vertical/horizontal-lateral. Both are important for groove tracking.These are the 507 specs: SpecificationsType Bi-Axis inertia controlled Dynamic and Eddy Current Damping Dynamic Balance type tone armOverall length...

Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Waynefia: I think and I already posted that one critical factor/subject on tonearm choice for MM/MI cartridges is to look for a low pivot bearing friction more than low effective mass ( 08-18-10 post in this same page, just below Lewm and Bir... 
Changing from an XV1-S
Dcarol: Sorry, I see/read that you already has the A-90 and like you better than the XV-1s, good.raul. 
Changing from an XV1-S
Dear Downunder: IMHO I think that other than Thom_mackris XV-1t subject your opinion on the XV-1 against the A-90 could be different if you hear today in your system the XV1-s against the A-90, today things are better in the 1s over the XV-1 ( tha... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Downunder: Yes, Nagaoka is a fine performer.Btw and just curious:almost every audio item you add to your system you listed in your " virtual system " like the A-90 cartridge.You own several MM/MI cartridges that like the Nagaoka you really li...

Dear firends: A fine B&O " touch " ( top of the line in its times. ):http://cgi.ebay.com/Bang-Olufsen-MMC-20CL-phono-cartridge-BOXED-/220660560110?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item336064f0ee#ht_915wt_1137this one too:http://cgi.ebay.com/AKG-... 
STP distance. Is it critical ?
Dear Bill: Now that I read both of your posts I think we are talking almost the same.All those different set of equations were made to optimize/put at minimum the tracking error somewhere but to bring at minimum the tracking error means that we ha... 
STP distance. Is it critical ?
Dear Nandric: I already email you an example of equations used to find out tonearm design geometry parameters where you can see/read that the input/variables for those equations are these " numbers ": effective length and inner-most and outer-most...

Dear friends: More fine opportunities:http://cgi.ebay.com/GRACE-F-9L-CARTRIDGE-/360293609520?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0#ht_3104wt_1137 these ones accept the AT200 stylus replacement:http://cgi.ebay.com/Audio-Technica-Headshell-AT-15sa-Phono-Cartridge-/... 
STP distance. Is it critical ?
Dear Bpolleti: You can make any " move/movement " you want with a pivot tonearm and always will have worst results that if you respect the different geometry set up equations where what you can change are the most outer/inner groove distances, the... 
Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths
Dear Mapman: How about, combo of mat and tonearm/cartridge. Most important?well IMHO the mat makes a difference and has a critical importance. Hard to say which TT link is more important but IMHO whatever you think the mat could be at the top.rega... 
Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths
Dear Jfrech: I'm not disputing the MK3 quality performance against your Monaco. I asume that your experience/comparison was not in your system with the same tonearm/cartridge.So: don't you think that your statement about is not only unfair but alm...
