Glanz moving magnet cartridges

Thanks for that.

Hi All,

Those looking to optimise their vinyl replay can currently get hold of an Audio Technica AT666 EX pneumatic stabilizer. There's one currently going on eBay:http://cgi.ebay.com/Audio-Technica-AT666-EX-disc-stabilizer-pump-etc-/200516997374?pt=Turntable_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2eafbe90fe.

Hi All,

Just spent an enforced length of time re-aquainting myself with my Glanz's. I can only reaffirm my claim that the G5 is a very superior cartridge and I would desperately urge anyone who has the opportunity to grab it. I am aware that they rarely appear but I truly believe they are worth any efforts to get hold of.

I write this partially stunned by the music presently playing in the background.

As always...

Apologies,

However, following off-line correspondence, I hasten to clarify that the Glanz is NOT of the quality of my Technics EPC 100Mk4. There again, nothing I have heard is.

What it is is a better performer than most well respected cartridges 'and' a (in my case) still unresolved challenge for perfect set up.

These points hopefully now clarified: I highly recommend it and its undoubted potential.

"Its undoubted potential" alludes to the fact that the Glanz might indeed outperform the Technics if the (still sought) ideal set up is achieved.

Any medium mass arm that places the stylus tip precisely 50mm from the collar of the arm wand where the cartridge meets arm will provide that potential!
