Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
In last few years I watched this Technics P100cMk4 cart going from obscurity to stardom. Very interesting and entertaining.

Raul, re: Azden YM-P50VL and Empire 875 XLT. Both of them have transparent red stylus assembly. linear type cut and tapered cantilever. My Empire 875 XLT marked as "Japan". I think it made in Japan by same maker as Azden cartridge.

Axel,It my case M20E is the lady of the week or two on jazz and classics. Less so with Limp Bizkit.

Raul. Re: Azden YM-P50VL. I have Empire 875 XLT, which is same cart. Last time I tied it it was very good, especially on rock/pop music. Bass was solid and really provided really good foundation for the music. Very enjoyable. Glory of music is rig...

Glanz moving magnet cartridges

Glanz moving magnet cartridges
Raul,honestly what can happen to wires in enclosed G5 body?

The h/s connector to stylus distance is 50 mm, which is good for many FR tonearms (probably Ikeda as well) and for my L-07D. I have to find it. BTW, Empire XE/Z body can be purchased on Y!J and original styli from Garage A Records.
