| Influence of stylus shapes on distortion Dear Axel: That was an answer from a " music lover ", I think that the cartridge designers can give us a more precise answer. Maybe JC could help us.Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| Influence of stylus shapes on distortion Dear Axel: You point out one of the distortion sources: alignment set-up, and we have to add VTF-matching tonearm/cartridge resonance frequency range-AS-load impedance-and the like.A stylus shape between its shape design has no self distortion oth... | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Peter: That threshold that I'm speaking is : through our each one ear/brain perception.Raul. | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Peter: Now that you already try both VTF " ways " you have the opportunity ( on both ) to make a very fine tunning with the VTF set-up you like it more and through tiny VTA changes try to be near on the other sound characteristics that you li... | |
| Pickering xsv/4000 replacement stylus insights Dear Drewmbl: That cartridge is only one step down of the Pickering top of the line in those times, very good performer.If you want something that could beat it IMHO maybe you have to invest over 3K on a today LOMC.Lucky to have it.regards and enj... | |
| Is there a maximum length for tonearm wiring? Dear George: There are negative consequences as we increment the distance, if we can or can't hear it is always person/system dependent specially on the tonearm to preamp quality of the cable.Now you always can think to other TT like the top of th... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Travbrow: Well you are serious about with all those cartridge. Btw, I really like your Technics tonearm specially its VTA mechanism.I agree with you about the Signet ( an Audio Technica division. ) and I can say that with the new stylus thing... | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Peter: Good. The interesting point is that you already try it in a " serious " way and you learn ( like any one of us. ) on the subject.I think that it will be a good thing to you that you can give at either set-up way a little more time with... | |
| emt 950, technics sp10 - direct drive sound Dear Lohan: From the point of view of quality performance on DD TTs IMHO I think that some models like the ones you name it are very good performers along other units out there. I can say that the Technics SP-10 ( either MK2 or 3 ), Denon DP-80/75... | |
| emt 950, technics sp10 - direct drive sound Dear Curio: As you point out the cartridge alignment was different for those two set-up ( big difference ) but not only that two different tonearms too and two same cartridges ( that believe me are a little different between them. ) and I can asum... | |
| Is there a maximum length for tonearm wiring? Dear George: +++++ " Would I lose part of the signal by increasing the wire length? " +++++in the same moment that the cartridge signal goes through a cable you start to lose/changing the original signal: adding and loosing information.If you don'... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Genesis: Normaly we can use the 4-5 position but it is important too to mate the MF-100 with the right headshell, well is almost impossible to find the right/perfect one but at least try with two-three different headshells and see which one w... | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear friends: I wonder why Daniel, I and some other people ( there are posts elsewhere on Dyna and SME owners where they state that hear differences. ) can hear differences and some of you did not.Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. | |
| SME V arm: dynamic VTF or straight weight Dear Daniel: Like I posted: different persons/systems different opinions.I made the same with the Micro Seiki ( with out damping ), FR, Ikeda, Dynavector, SME and Lustre tonearms and with several cartridges ( one cartridge at the time ) and I pref... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Siny123: In those times Astatic had a lower cartridge model than the MF-400: the IM10E, this cartridge does not used the moving flux principle than the MF series.Regards and enjoy the music.Raul. |
