| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lewm:Good to hear from you. "Do you have any idea how Signet seems to have side-stepped a law of physics?" Umm, because Signets are magical? Seriously, a year or so ago I thought myself fortunate in locating a NOS TK7Lca. #140, a very e... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Jessica/Steverino (Hi, Henry): It appears a certain Aussie has cornered the market for the now unobtainable ATN-155lc stylus. The one referenced above is the identical LC stylus/beryllium cantilever assembly but configured for a P-mount c... | |

| Tonearm microphonics Regards, rotarius:Thanks for the considerate manner of your post. Please consider: "Constructive" and "Desirable" are not necessarily synonyms.First, neither are resonance or interference technically the same. However, when considering transducers... | |
| Tonearm microphonics Regards. Correct me if I'm wrong, I really don't mind. A cartridge doesn't care where it's signal comes from and if any constituent part of a turntable can resonate, it will. Resonance can be either constructive or destructive, airborne or mechani... | |
| The Palladian-A step beyond Regards. ThuchanWith titanium, when considering midrange enhancement the eigen value of resonance on a molecular level is not apparent (IIRC) until the 135th harmonic.Other elements discussed in this thread resonate at a much baser level, a common... | |
| Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Regards. Stereoneedles (dot com) still offers the original ATN155LC. Another alternative from the same vendor would be the ATN140LC, a nude LC stylus on a tapered alloy cantilever. A slightly warmer performer. As Halcro (hi, Henry!) mentioned, the... |
