@mijostyn- I've never had a problem getting excellent Bass with my chosen carts.
Always have tried to match them correctly (compliance/effective mass, within reason), which, I realize, some think is bunk.
In my mind: a high compliance cart, in some of the newer, higher mass arms, would create other problems. ie: exaggerated cone motion, when trying to ride record warp, possibly: early compliance collapse and excessive stylus wear?
Anyway: I've always been a Pipe Organ-phile, Bass lover and got acquainted with the sound of, "live", way before ever owning a system (Elementary School music classes, etc). Well- there was the turntable and Elvis 45's, at around the age of 12, but...
Two of my all-time favorite vinyls are the Crystal Clear, Direct to Disc, of Virgil Fox (The Fox Touch, Vol I) and MFSL, Dark Side of the Moon.
Toccata and Fugue in D minor and the heartbeats (not to mention the rest of that disc), both are mesmerizing, when reproduced correctly.
Thanks for the suggestion, though!
