| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, Don't hold your breath. LpGear is notorious for not answering emails. It's almost impossible to get a hold of them. Their reputation has been tarnished lately with a bad batch of OC9II carts. People couldn't get a response and had to cancel ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Griffithds, what is this Akai RS180, beryllium/LC?You bought them to transplant into a TK7SU. Is this more cost effective than a 155LC, requiring no transplant?I don't have the Precept cart. I tried the PCN550 on an AT15 which I hadn't used in qui... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Griffithds, **Comrade, to me based on what they have stated, it's kind of hard not to believe it is not an original. But being an original doesn't mean it had to be good!**Like Nandric, my magnification is inadequate for a definitive answer, but t... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lew, *I don't really know JE, but he is a frequent contributor on VA and seems to have a legit engineering background. That said, he tends to go by the numbers rather than by the ears in most of his opinions (except he does admit to loading his De... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lew, I proved Ellison wrong about electrical resonance and supposed phase shift, some time after that series of posts. The Ortofon paper from 1982 measured amplitude vs phase response in the MC200 vs 5 MM carts. None of the 5 MMs showed phase reve... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Nandric, We're in agreement about your nurture vs nature thesis, no problem with that, unfortunately that's not what I was addressing. In English, the use of the plain language word "all", is a precise and distinct quantifier from the word "m... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Nandric, Your illogical responses are tedious, and I doubt if others are still interested. Looks like I opened a can of worms, but once opened there is little alternative but to deal with the mess.*'I have refuted those statements' or 'thosestatem... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Raul, I've been using the PCN550ML stylus on an AT-15 body, with very interesting results. I normally use the 20SS stylus. It took a long time to break in or loosen up, seems like much longer than usual. Perhaps it was because I hadn't used the ca... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Nandric, I fail to understand the logic of supporting your learned differences thesis with statements that are obviously false. Your use of words/phrase, like all, and each of us, in no way implies relativism. Then, when I present an opposing view... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? "We all got 'the same' hearing capability from the mother nature all the rest is nurture."This first statement is untrue. All of us did not get the same hearing capability. All implies everyone and one exception renders your statement false. It's ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Nandric,**To be in accordance with what science already knows and what Zenblaster stated in short you should reformulate your statement as: the operation of our earsare the same by each of us but our brain interpretation of what we hear can be ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Comrade Nandric, I was under the impression that you bought the 150ANV. I think that was a good move and a wise investment. It's limited production and now discontinued. Raul already commented on its quality, performance. The AT50ANV is the l... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hi Raul, have you tried the AT-50ANV ? It has air core coils - could be a winner. Regards, | |
| How much magnification required to see stylus? Elizabeth is correct. To judge wear, you need at least 200X and up to 500X is helpful for micro types. You also need high intensity lamps on either side of the stylus. Then you have to know what you're looking for and how to judge.The professional... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Did it have a stylus guard when you got it? They usually say what it is. I think the SLa is tapered aluminum and the SS should look thin and straight. Maybe you got a mislabeled one, or someone switched guards to sell the aluminum but forgot to sw... |
