| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lewm: It's a simple concept, the math is more than I want to tackle. Resonance is the result of an external force vibrating at the same frequency as the natural frequency, or eigenvalue, of a system. Resonant modes oscillate back and fort... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Halcro: FYI, my crystal ball is calibrated to two nines. You slept through some great weather. :)The Virtuoso is holding your interest?Peace, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lew: Not sure of the exact date, CE 1977/78? Claims for output, "bigger is better" became so outrageous that truth in advertising laws were invoked. Ratings were tied to continuous maximum output for one hour without clipping and statemen... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Griffithds: Thanks again. A reminder, the painted white, gray, then silver and gold XV-15 motors are of increasingly tighter spec., calibrated 681 bodies (this also implies a lab-matched stylus) will be engraved with a registration #. Twi... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lew: Apologies for not having qualified that figure, leaving you in the position of an informed audio enthusiast deliberating the merits of a Soundesign "1,000 watt Peak Power" boom box at the supermarket. Peace, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Halcro: Humidity at 76%, barometer is 29.66 millibars. Outside temp. 48F, foggy this morning. Elec. service is holding a steady 125v. Old rig is cranking out out some pretty good soundstage, dynamics & ambience. Running in an AT ML150... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards Griffithds: The Stanton/Pickering carts have me puzzled. Vinyl Engine Data Base is often incorrect, glad to have a Stantering Guru on board. That would be you, Don.Thanks for keeping us informed.Peace, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Lewm: That surprising bit of data is from Boston University, Department of Physics. In the most sincere manner possible, if anyone can supply other figures it would be appreciated. AC is measured on a time scale (Hz), cyclical & there... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Griffithds: Following your saga of the TL4S with interest. As reports drift in, looks like the TL series may be a winner. It's interesting that the PickeringUK site identifies it as "line contact", can you confirm the "S" designation refe... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Halcro: Condolences, Henry. Having given it considerable thought, there is a suspicion of meteorological impact. Living in the "sticks" is a dubious advantage, have my own personal transformer & the old rig is on a dedicated twenty am... | |
| Resonators Regards, Geoffkait: Have to agree about the beer bottles. When listening with friends the enjoyment of music increases proportionately to the number of empties. How they are arrayed seems to make little difference, YMMV.Peace, | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: Thanks for your comments. As mentioned, there are days when my modest rig exceeds expectations and occasionally keeps me captivated into the early hours. There are other sessions when the components seem to not want to have anything... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: Although agreeing that the pursuit of the ideal is a worthy goal, the assertion that there is a single solution for all applications is itself questionable. “Beware the man of a single book.” ― St. Thomas AquinasHaving spent twelve ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Regards, Raul: Distortion is most often understood to mean IGD, OGD, FIM, TIM, sometimes even PMS. Music is generally considered an art and the elements constituting "good" art, it's tone, texture and structural elements have yet to be empirically... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Distortions in politics are the norm. In audio it's a BUZZZZZ word.Pax, |
