Glanz moving magnet cartridges


Hi,

I have just acquired an old Glanz G5 moving magnet cartridge. However, I cannot find out any details about this or the Glanz range or, even the company and its history.

Can anyone out there assist me in starting to piece together a full picture?

Any experiences with this or other Glanz's; web links; set up information etc would be warmly received. Surely someone knows something!

Thanks in hope

Hi All,

Just one more point on the 420STR revamp: it needs careful set up as very small changes (say in VTF and VTA) have a larger than normal affect on its performance. Within a couple of millimetres of parallel it can move from a super rich, midrange vibrant performer to a lean, critical and super analytical one.

Hope this helps.

As always...
Hi Nandric,

Sorry, I just realised that I might have misread your post as questioning my general sanity when it seems you were actually questioning whether I was annoyed with the MM thread. If that is the case, my answer is "no". Sadly, I have turned my attentions elsewhere recently and so do not find the time to follow or respond to much of the interesting commentary on there. I do still try and follow it when the time and inclination allow though.

As always...
Dear Dgob, I was not refering to your interest in philosophy... but was wondering why you deed not post this contribution in the MM thread. Meanwhile you already corrected this. That is to say if you want to keep your Glanz thread, uh, 'exclusive'. If you would be so kind to mention the price of Axel's work we may be able to deduce the cantilever/stylus combo from the price.I myself am very reluctant to retip a cart which already has a new stylus as well as the cantilever. This 'prerogative' I live gladly to Raul and 'some' British gentleman.

Regards,
Hi Audpulse,

I think you must have post while I was posting my above response to Acman3 and Nandric.

I hope that helps but let me know if you think I can help in any other way.

As always...
