Regards, Lew: Simple harmonics:http://sharp.bu.edu/~slehar/HRezBook/Chap2.pdfFactors we concern ourselves with:Damping: The dissipation of a vibration's energy into heat energy. This may also be considered as the frictional force that causes the l... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lewm: It's a simple concept, the math is more than I want to tackle. Resonance is the result of an external force vibrating at the same frequency as the natural frequency, or eigenvalue, of a system. Resonant modes oscillate back and fort... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lew: Not sure of the exact date, CE 1977/78?
