The best TT system for under 30K
uwiiks, you have some fabulous equipment there, so just a word of caution. The magnets in your cartridge are very powerful. Do not let anything which is magnetic get anywhere near them. No watch straps, no coins, only tools - and even then, not too close and only when carefully controlled. Don't ask me how I know. Good luck! |
@chakster - I think your taking shots at the high end through this new user's thread is a little misplaced. You seem to know old MM cartridges well based on what I've seen and that's a valuable contribution. The turntable this person bought is a good one based on my experience with it. Perhaps you should take your own advice, to the effect "that there is not such things as "best" for everyone, you can only try and compare yourself." The poster did get to hear the table and is buying the set up at what is apparently a good price. Don't begrudge him that. |
Miyajima is great cartridge and it’s not necessary to pay over $5k, some of the best Miyajima like Kansui (or even Madake) available for $2-3k with very low hrs of use. I have Miyajima Kansui (NOS). As pointed out in another thread Miyajima is a trademark of Otono-Edison. In Japan those cartridges called Edison. The name Miyajima is for export sales only. |
