Why mono?

I learned it because I was thinking about buying a mono cart. So I did some research.
(Also I have been AROUND in audio since Mono was the only choice, I am like really old.)
The biggest reason not to for me was changing carts just to do the mono cart at times. Too much bother. So IF I got a third TT, one I wanted for mono only, I might do it.

Thanks again, I really don't have that many mono records to take that kind of plunge! I was just curious why Grado makes one.

Hi Elizabeth,
Just one more question, if you use a mono cartridge would only one channel work?

I have a Miyajima Premium BE mono cartridge mounted on a Triplanar tonearm and it is terrific on mono recordings. It sounds better on the vast majority of my ~300 mono recordings when compared to my Dynavector XV1-S stereo cartridge on a Talea tonearm. Great explanation Elizabeth.

I heard the Miyajima Premium BE mono cartridge at Robin Wyatt's house, the importer, a few months ago. It is special to the point that it actually challenges stereo recordings. Jazdoc is right; it is that good.
