| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul. It seems to me that from simply observing audible and visual cues one can determine if the tonearm is appropriate for the cartridge in use. Just as over-damping of a low mass tonearm will result in excessive flexing of the cantileve... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dgob: The best information I can offer comes from Empire Sci.: Empire states all styli fit all cartridges within that family.

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul. Several comments were made concerning the ZLM stylus, perhaps three weeks ago. It is entirely possible that I had misremembered and the comment was made by another. Apologies.The Acutex: the 315 diamonds' profile is 0.3 x 1.6 x 0.6,... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul: In the spirit of sharing information, your and Aolsalas' opinion of the ADC ZLM stylus came late.

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Aolsala: I think you are suffering a misapprehension. The thread is about MM/MI/IM/MC cartridges.

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Greetings, Aolsola. Regards, Raul.Great information about ADC cartridges recently, and perhaps more importantly, justifiable opinion expressed by knowledgeable others. Does it get any better? The Astrion is apparently a transitional cartridge, the... | |
