Dear chakster, I don't believe that you ever owned one of
those ADC 25/26and 27. I just listened to my ADC 26 and
am very much impressed. Never heard Portuguese guitar
more natural sounding before. Speaking in your terms
never seen such low mass cantilever/stylus combo. My
only problem is light hum which I only get with MM carts and
never with my MC carts. I deed try everything but alas.
My only new idea is to connect ground of both cart connectors
together. Ground is an real enigma but looks very simple
because everything is connected with ''the same'' ground.
But before trying I hope to hear from my comembers if
anybody has try this ''solution''.
