Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Stltrains: My last (ever) comment on AS. Fleib, as has Nikola (between the lines of his wry Balkan "humor"), suggest that an inspection for cantilever deflection as the arm is queued down would be a good idea. There was a photo offered on... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Raul: From the Boston Audio Society, 08-04-'80, this may be of interest :"Bauer in the early '60s,--- found the VTA of most cartridges too high (average 28 o ) to match the then current 15 o standard. With the change to an 18 o standard, ...

"address further comments on this subject to someone else."Oh no, Fleib, that's not how it works. An open forum, I'll address whom I please. However, it might be best to not address further comments to the other on any subject. No noob here, tired... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Fleib: Copy/paste from your friends as Wikipedia: "a force which keeps a body moving with a uniform speed along a circular path and is directed along the radius towards the centre. Isaac Newton's description was: "A centripetal force is t...

Regards, Pryso: Skating force is relevant to the audiophiles position. ;)Before Lew explodes: First, the speed of a revolving object is greatest at the outside perimeter. If the rpms are constant, velocity as measured in inches per second (ips) de... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Dgob: You are being too kind. I thought the discussion was educational, entertaining and on occasion deliciously nonsensical. Everyone else made points to be considered and there's still some difference of "opinion" evident so for now, "t...

Regards, John Gordon: Thanks for the reference. I thought your information useful and presented in a practical and easily read fashion. Input from professionals is always welcome.Peace, 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Fleib: Here we go again. You said "There are 2 factors that effect AS, position on the record and stylus velocity." So far, so good. Next, "skating is CAUSED by the additional vector from offset". So far there have been four influences id...

Nevermind. 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Lew: "I thought we all agreed on this". Yep. Matter of fact, said so. Two days ago. Being the knucklehead that I am and think of it as you wish, I have a hard time believing that if one were to twist a cartridge in the headshell so that t... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Fleib: Heh, conical paddle. Laughter is good for the soul, so "they" say. It appears that all that needs to be said about AS has been, there appears to be a remarkable state of agreement in the ranks thanks to those who offered to share t... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Ecir38,Stltrains: There are fewer reports of concern for AS from those who implement MC carts, it becomes more a concern for those who use high compliance pickups. Downforce is an additional vector and it seem reasonable to suggest that, ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Lew(m): And every other interested person:http://www.vinylengine.com/library/sony/pua-237.shtml.Two items related to the discussion, go to this link and click on "owners manual", the geometry of the tonearm is pictured on the last two pag...

Regards, Ecir38/Stltrains: Please don't think you're being disregarded, your contributions are appreciated in view of the topic. Do you mind if I reply?Peace, 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Regards, Lew(m), I believe we are essentially in agreement concerning skating and its relation to the somewhat intuitive but verifiable principles of Newtonian physics and yes, thank you both Lew & Jcarr, the ability to communicate using refer...
