| Naim Aro to replace my Schroder No. 2? Dear Shsohis: Like Doug states is the tonearm/cartridge matching a little more important than the TT/tonearm one.If your cartridge is performing good in your tonearm then IMHO you don't need to move anywhere other that a sure and precise change of... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear friends: I can't remember whom was the person that ask the performance of the AT-155LC against the AT-ML160-LC/OCC.Well I receive my 155LC and I can confirm that the AT-ML160 is a better performer in any way.The 155 remember me the LOMC perfo... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Selfdivider: I don't have experience other than 47K/100K but the cartridge loading subject is always something to try, listening and decide.Maybe other member can comment in specific of your needs.Regards and enjoy the music,Raul. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Axel: Good for you, I'm sure you will like it and like always: your posts about is welcome.regards and enjoy the music,Raul. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lewm: Well, yes I understand but because almost all are out of production cartridges maybe we can't find it in the near future.Anyway, the choice to buy or not is a very personal decision.Regards and enjoy the music,Raul. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Axel/Lew: Today it is very dificult to me continue to hear LOMC cartridges, more and more the MM/MI experience tell me that today this is IMHO the right analog source. I have to say that I don't have the 100% control on the MM/MI alternative ... | |
| Move to MC Cartridge- Shelter, Ortofon? Dear Dsa: IMHO these are very good alternatives:http://cgi.ebay.com/Ortofon-M20FL-Super-MM-cartridge-M-20-FL-Super-NOS_W0QQitemZ120492170569QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item1c0de49d49#ht_2634wt_1165 http://cgi.ebay.com/Ortofon-M20E-S... | |
| Goldmund Reference versus Walker Dear D.H: IMHO a Goldmund Reference vs Walker is almost useless comparison because the Walker comes with a dedicated tonearm and almost always the Reference too but a different tonearm, so a comparison is heavy dependent on those tonearms.IMHO eve... | |
| Phono stages belong to which tier? Dear Perrew: Remember that the Essential 3160 is a Phonolinepreamp: phono stages + line stage.The total gain in the Phono stage is 60db in two stages but this Phono stage signal must pass through the line stage where there is the additional gain t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Jim: I don't have the time at the moment ( sorry. ) for a precise explanation/comparison but IMHO the FL/E are something to hear and a must addition to your " powerful cartridge arsenal ", no doubt about: buy it while it last. Let me tell you... | |
| Cartridge Question Dear Scott: Certainly that you today capacitance setting is around the cartridge specs because you have to add to those receiver spec of 150pf the cable capacitance.In a MM/MI cartridges the capacitance makes a difference especially in the high fr... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lewm: Both cartridges are similar with two main differences: as you point out the E comes for elliptical stylus against the FL that comes with a linear contact type, the other difference is on compliance: E has 40cu against the 20cu for the F... | |
| Cartridge Question Dear Brent: All the posts has very wise and mature advise on your thread subject, I only want to add some thoughts about:first the Ortofon is a MM/MI cartridge that needs not only the right load impedance but the total capacitance value ( that the... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Lewm: Try a Nagaoka MP-50 where the tonearm is not grounded and touch the cartridge or the headshell not exactly hum but a distorted sound around Khz not 60 hz, yes I know that the ground hum is 60 hz or 50 hz frequency depend in which countr... | |
