Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Lewm: Maybe I don't explain well in what I posted.I'm not using the 507 only its headshell ( model ) and I'm using it not with the 20FL but with the Astatic MF-100 on an AT 1503MK3 tonearm.Actually the M20FL is mounted in a Grace G-940 with a... 
Turntable Distortion
Dear Al3700: About the gain and internal phono board you must contact Cambridge and Creek directly by email, they will give you the precise answers.I don't hear/heard either so I can't speak of each one phono stage quality performance but with the... 
Turntable Distortion
Dear Al3700: Check that the gain in the 640 is switched to the low gain ( 33db. ) and that in the Destiny there is not switched to additional gain in the line stage ( 3db to 9db. ).It seems to me that there is an overloading trouble, somewhere too...

Dear T_bone: Thank you for the link.I think that that price is a very fair one for a cartridge like this one even if the price was 5K dls. IMHO still fair.I own the serial numbers: 4221 and 4121. My only " concern " on the cartridge at the picture... 
Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth?
Dear Mike: I don't ignore nothing coming from you, as is I ask you.I'm interested too in what you and othet people post about the Caliburn and certainly not because I want to buy it ( I don't have than kind of money. ) but I want to figure ( at le... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Zhuwei1231: The shape body is similar but that is only what is similar between these Astatic cartridges. Its electrical characteristics are a little different and performs different but if you own them you can try the MF-100 stylus " body " o... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear friends: I have to " applaud " to Lewm again for his unusual high VTA discovery.In all those cartridges that I already test and posted the benefit was not a tiny one but bigger than what we can think. I just test the Astatic MF-100 and the re... 
Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth?
Dear Mike: Do you already listen your Rockport over the same " environment " like the one you heard the Caliburn?.Maybe the Caliburn is the best TT's out there and I'm not questioning this but what I'm wondering is how you arrive to that Caliburn ...

Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear friends: Don't " exhaust " about I already buy that AKG sample.NO, just kidding, I already have two samples of that great AKG P-100LE.IMHO with a better quality performance over any other vintage MM/MI cartridge I try it, only the EPC-P100CMK... 
Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth?
Dear halcro: Certainly a 100K+ TT has to perform different ( for the better I hope. ) " per se " but certainly too the Cobra has a weight on that performance, obviously in a lower way that the TT it self.Maybe could be interesting to test the Cali... 
Direct Drive turntables
Dear Teres: I agree on that 70's electronics example.I want to argue not what happen in the 70's with electronic designs but what we have today. It is clear even today that there are audio items that could measures good but sounds awful because di... 
Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth?
Dear Jimjoyce25: No, I did not but seems to me by its designs that maybe the most important " weight " in the overall Caliburn performance comes/culprit by the Cobra tonearm, who knows?regards and enjoy the music,Raul.
