| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: Your points made regarding "hybrids" are well taken and under no circumstances should anyone presume to do so blithely. There are precedences, the Acutex LPM motor is compatable with a range of styli as are many AT, Shure, and in pa... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: The usually accurate pickupnaald.nl site describes the TK9e as red, the TK9LC as gold and replacement styli for both the AT22 and 24 as silver, same description and price but with different item numbers. Three sites describe the all... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Headsnappin: Relative to the concerns Raul expresses, look under the AT or Signet page. Raul: Yours is the first confirmation of specific numbering, thank you for your identification as otherwise the vendors' description is the criteria f... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, DU. Another positive report on the AT/Signet siblings. Construction of the class is hand wound meticulous, Signet estimated twenty minutes per coil. Good to hear you're enjoying yours. I'm especially pleased to find the LC stylus for my w... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: Thanks for taking the time to respond. I'd recently revisited my Grace F9-E and the Shure 140HE, two cartridges I have trouble in assesing, largely because I listen to them so infrequently. Although the paperwork that came with the ... | |
| Anyone have an opinion, Jico SAS stylus? Regards, Hxt1: Shure recommends 4-500pF cap. At 100k Ohms res., hf/low level detail is quite good. Strong bass if VTA is slightly heel down, helps in taking bite out of the mids, too. Otherwise the Shure will sound brittle. Current passion is for ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, all: It seems there is an increased current of both interest and availability in these classic transducers. Through the internet and exchange of information, those with the prerequisite knowledge and inclination are enabled to make inform... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lew: Our posts have crossed in the ether. Raul is correct about the importance of considering any potential for improvment and as he is the originator of this thread is welcome to take it in any direction he chooses. Under no circumstance... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: You indicated several weeks ago you were revisiting the Grace F9-E/Ruby and indicated it might merit a formal review. Do you still think it so? Also, your Acutex LPM 315-111STR is now a LPM 315 MK.1VdH. Have you tried it yet, can yo... | |
| Anyone have an opinion, Jico SAS stylus? Regards, Blondskier7: Caution! The SAS stylus has cost me somewhere in the neighborhood of, well, a lot. It is said that familiarity breeds contempt. In this instance 35 years of familiarity had engendered complacency. Although some components hav... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lew: Have you listened to your Acutex yet? (Maybe I can distract him from this subtopic).Peace, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Headsnappin: Apologies, I was not serious in redirecting your question towards the AT-7v, I'd been recently speculating about the suitability of the 7v for accepting a higher compliance stylus. Found this morning, this is a snip of what L... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? 11-17-10: HeadsnappinHas anyone listened to the AT-7V cart?Heck, Headsnappin, I thought you were going to try it with the AT-7v cart, must have written 7ea instead, the names are so similar."The Audio Technica AT-7V uses a proven cartridge design ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Headsnappin: More information than you asked for but there may be some considerations others would find interesting so please pardon this post's length. First question, will the 7ea work- the ea series require the rectangular alignment po... | |
| Paradigm Studio 60 V5 Fingernails on Chalkboard Hi, Bobaguv: An old school solution, place soft tissue between the tweets and grill. Easy fix and it works. Another thought, have you tried tipping them forward or back? |
