| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: You're correct. The first place I should have looked for info. concerning the CA Virt. was right here on A'gon. Nice review. The 5 x 80um figure was given elsewhere but as the earlier 4 x 40 contact area figure was provided by an un... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: Your opinions are never disregarded. Consequent to a small amount of seeking info. online. ClearAudio Virtuoso:Description: Moving-magnet phono cartridge. Stylus profile: Not specified. (See below) Frequency range: 20Hz-20kHz. Outpu... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Halcro: Hi, Henry. Same generator, different stylus? AT15xe, sa, ss, etc. IIRC, cart mass and elec. specs are the same. Someone correct if wrong, please. Good to hear you're enjoying the TK7LCa/155lc stylus. I'm finding it performs nicely... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Acman3: And thanks Danny, fingers are crossed. The errant Black Widow has an ADC XLM-11 Impr. on it now, a good combo. Until volume is turned up. The BW has never done this before. The resonance seems due both to the two near-by active su... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, In_shore: Thanks. The loyal SP25/Black Widow is otherwise adequate for the purpose but in the small home office it's in and with the 170 yr. old pine board floors, both acoustic and mechanical resonance is causing woofer-pumping and feedb... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, In_shore: The P-10 is reputed to be second only to the P3 in Pioneer's Japan only offerings. I thank you for your interest. If the not quite mega-table PL-70L 11 offers a real improvement over the SP-25/BW (I suspect it will), then an upg... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thanks, T-bone. Have found a source (Japan) for the PL-70L's C-F straight pipe, ceramic version too. Reading btwn the lines, the curved wand is massy? Info. on these decks is scarce unless one reads Japaneese so I appreciate your experience and wi... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Stltrains (T_bone, are you still there?): Stltrains, is there evidence the Empire's suspension is bottoming out on these extreme warps? Resonance is the usual suspect but the recently discussed MOI in the vertical plane could be a factor,... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Griffithds: While others are sorting out tonearms and Raul is celebrating (congradulations, Raul), may I field two of your questions? Lewm (hi!, Lew) beat me to the easy one: The "P" in the Azden's designation denotes just that, a P-mount... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Thuchan: To borrow from Aristotle: "A good wife will make a man happy. A bad wife will make him a philosopher". Mine are all, to some degree, compliant and those which are not suitably responsive are put away in a dark place where they ca... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Travbrow: I remember and still appreciate your assistance in obtaining a suitable stylus for my TK9, it took a significant number of hours to run in and does represent the qualities you observed. I hesitated to pull the trigger on the Nag... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Nandric: Is it possible you don't have too many cartridges but rather too few tonearms? These are more easily changed or adjusted than is a lady.Peace, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Travbrow: What a dilemma! From the Greek "double proposition", two propositions, neither of which is entirely acceptable. Listening recently to a TK9/ATN25, a Signet TK7SU, a Signet TK7LCa, a bonded stylus AT12Sa and an AT20SS with both t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lew: You tell it much better than I. Henry also has a healthy sense of humor but Nicola, a "docile" person? Ha. Ho ho. Hahahaha. Nolo contendre.You've still not listened to the LPM 412? You're in for a pleasant experience.Peace, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lew: To corrupt a famous Carson line:" If it weren’t for Philo T. Farnsworth, inventor of television, we’d still be eating frozen audio (radio) dinners." In this case, it's something to look forward to.There's a NOS LPM 412 that lives on ... |
