Experience with Einstein TU-3 cartridge
Dear Olaps: IMHO I think that a " natural " way/road could be through the Titan i due that you like the Lyra experience.I can't say to much on the TU-3 due that I only heard it once for a brief time but even if you go for it or the Titan i here is...

Dear Axel: I have to say that this Empire ( elliptical stylus. ) is really sensitive to VTA/AZ changes, normaly cartridges with elliptical stylus are very friendly but this one is a little " nervous ".Well, after 20-25 hours and with a fine tunnin...

Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Axel: Reading on your posts when you talk about the Empire cartridge you reffer to it like the S1000 model.In my " book " the S1000 ( I have two ) is a stylus replacement for the Empire 1000GT, these facts makes things a little confusing beca...

Dear Lewm: IMHO that way is not the best to achieve/to have a top MM/MI quality performer.If you own a Honda Accord not because you change its name for Ferrari : you have a Ferrari, things are not so easy.In cartridges is almost the same. Normally... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Lewm: I think you can't do it ( of course you always can try it. ) because that model in particular has different specs on: output level, internal inductance and internal impedance against the 15-20 SLa/SS models.The 13 model was not very pop...

Dear Dgob: In my experience that AT ML-170 OCC is one of the " must to have " cartridges ( MC or MM ) along the 180 OCC.I hope that when you already have/play it you can share with us what do you think about.Regards and enjoy the music,Raul. 
Do you think you need a subwoofer?
Dear Pryso: I want to add ( a little late!. ) that even if the main speakers cross-over is at 160hz like you say and other benefits that the ones I posted earlier one advantage using separate self powered subs is that that separate subs can more e... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Dear Pryso: I'm accustom to use the cartridges with out stylus guard due that almost all the MC ones must play with out it.If your audio system has the adequate resolution you could hear a very tiny improvement ( clear highs. )with out the stylus ...
