matching cartridge and speakers

Well - reality bites ...... which is an inevitable side-effect of reality .... it is real.
Enjoy the trip.
As a serious epigraph: do take care to match cartridge's dynamic-mechanical parameters with the moving effective mass and energy conductivity of your tonearm.
Likewise try to match the output stage of your amplifier according to your speakers x-over/voice coils inductance/resistance and capacitance.
Those are the things to match if you want to "match" speakers and cartridge.
Match their parameters with the direct partners.
For real world's sake and best results.

Now you talking. We were in a complete agreement from start. The only difference is that I choose to focus on the brain storm after the marketing onslaught in our hobby and how can alter the logical steps to the direction of a twisted reality.
And -it's epilogue, not epigraph.

Sorry Aristotle, epigraph was used correctly.

Epigraph- "A motto or quotation, as at the beginning of a literary composition, setting forth a theme".

Epilogue- "A short poem or speech spoken directly to the audience following the conclusion of a play".

And it's "now you're talking", not "not you talking".

Unless of course you be from the hood.

Bill, the key word is "the conclusion" and this I believe Daniel means by closing this theme.
OK my English are lousy, but as you see, I'm trying hard to express something important here so, don't be such a picky Bill now.

Well, not many people participate. They are still talking about best cartridges and power cords when it is obvious that there are no such things.
There is always both science and art involved in whatever we want to match. I wanted to stress the art part.
It is possible that at least in some cases people are not satisfied with their clearly great systems because this link, cartridge-speakers, is not the best to their taste.
