| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear friends: I already send an email to WT where I explain our findings on the M20FL Super and where I ask where he get these Ortofon ( his source. ) cartridges and if he can confirm that both different cartridge body/color are the same.I let you... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Siniy123: Good to hear from you on the M20FL subject. I have some things to say about but before I have to make some tests before.What made more complex is that now we have not only two cartridge versions but three!!!: one gold/cooper body an... | |
| Direct Drive turntables Dear Mikelavigne: I don't argue of what you heard through your first hand TT drive experiences but what does not make sense to me is that you made statements/conclusions ( same as Albert. ) of the superior DD performance when ( even between your D... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Kcc123/Siniy123: I have on hand an Ortofon VMS30MK2 that has similar body shape than the M20FL but with silver color. Both cartridges comes with the same stylus shape and looking at micro the one in the VMS looks like the one in the picture (... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Tigerwoodkhorns: IMHO that AT-15 cartridge performs a little better at 100K but certainly not rolled off/closed in at 47K, maybe that's because the stylus is near its " life-end " or something wrong with the cartridge suspension. If I remembe... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Kcc123: Maybe only you and Siniy123 are the ones that own both version.Wo you already made comparisons with the same analog rig/set up? which were your findings?I don't worry about the different color on the body but more about that differenc... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Dgarretson: From some time to now I'm not using capacitance through my phonolinepreamp and IMHO and due that I'm loading at 100K and that the MM/MI cartridges are very sensitive to capacitance the performance on all the cartridges that I hear... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Cashcamp: I can't say if there is quality performance differences between it because all the ones I have comes with the cooper/gold body.Siniy123 owns both and I hope he can put some " light " in the subject.Regards and enjoy the music,Raul. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear friends: I was aware of the Ortofon M20 Super more than a year ago when I buy my first one ( I own 4-5. ) the M20E Super that I buy to a person on CA where I pay something over 200.00 for it.When I mounted and heard it I was really impressed ... | |
| Direct Drive turntables Dear Alec:+++++ " Hi, has DD a "theoretical" advantage over belt drive that will translate into better sounds? " +++++IMHO the opinion on DD advocates can tell you " several " advantages " and in the other side the BD advocates can tell you too th... | |
| What would you chose? VPI MKIII vs. Linn LP-12 Dear Jemm: If you go for the VPI up-grade then you could consider a VPI tonearm.here are some good options for a different tonearm:http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?anlgtnrm&1267456794&/Rega-RB700 http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.p... | |
| DaVinci tonearm and azymuth Dear Larry: IMHO the best way to " minimizing wear/damage to the stylus and to my records " is not hear/touch it ( kidding. ). The life is to short like not full enjoy your records because that trade off, at least for me.regards and enjoy the musi... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear friends: Due that the compliance numbers I posted comes from a Japanese magazine then the true values are what you already know: 40cu and 20cu. Please read this ( at the end of the link. ) and sorry to create this confusion:http://www.moerch.... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Cashcamp: Great info, thank you!!!Now, this info about dynamic compliance put me in doubt the info I posted and have in that Japanese guide ( 1984 ) where they have two values: 20cu and 10cu, where I take 10cu for the dynamic compliance.Seen ... | |
| DaVinci tonearm and azymuth Dear Psag: +++++ " Would appreciate it if anyone could comment on the pros and cons of this design decision. " +++++IMHO there is no single pro about. From a stand point of tonearm design one main tonearm target is to permit/accept the right cartr... |
