Your thread has no sense at least what you stated ... stupid ... Stupid things ... ignorant ...  no-sense statement ...  Your logic about those cartridges with diferent color has no sense ...  other gentlemans already gave you opinions in your no-sense statement ...  you like to live in that " audio world " a wrong/dark one ...
Not everyone who disagrees with you is stupid, Raul. Not all of the "ignorant" people who disagree with you are wrong.

Dear @cleeds : As almost always you don't have nothing say.

Now, if you are in favor of the OP thread statement, good for you and for me because tells that " you don't have any sense " at least audio common sense/knowledge level.
