Regards, Downunder: You wrote: "keep us informed what Stereoneedles say". Recieved a call to inform me that they were aware of my concern and would take the necessary measures to arrange for return of the AT25 stylus they sent for "testing". In co...

Regards, Acman3- Hi, Danny. The TK5/7ea are progressively more refined and exceedingly articulate with the 155LC stylus but lack the vivacity/immediacy of the somewhat enthusiastic TK3/140LC. Woodwings, voice and strings are presented graciously, ...

Regards, Raul, Lewm, Dean-man, Ackman3: Thanks for the thanks but it's not neccessary. Raul led the way, Lew, Jim & Danny, you did the work, now time (I hope) to benefit. For such an ugly duckling, the Acutex LPM is a rewarding little cartridg...
