Is There An "Absolute" Best Cartridge?


Dear friends: We can read through different threads/posts in this forum that people always want/ask to know for the " best " " audio item " that IMHO and till today does not exist in " absolute " meaning.
Well I already have and I'm " living " a unique experience that makes me to share with all of you what IMHO could be in Absolute terms " the best cartridge ever ".

Please read this Technics EPC-P100C-MK4 information that could help you for you can share with us your experiences/thoughts on the subject of this thread:

The best cart in world is the cart you own. We can all speculate about what would be theoretical the best cart in the world. But The cart in your own TT is the best one for you at that time. Because that is the cart that lets you listen to you music. Any cart that you don't own is by definition worst because a cart you don't own cannot let you enjoy your music.

I was somewhat tongue in cheek with my Technics EPC-U1200 post.

Just goes to show how the mighty have fallen, but it does have a glow in the dark stylus :-)
Dear Mordante: IMHO is useless any comments in your "
philosophical " opinion other that I'm not speculating
not even in theoretical way what I posted in this thread are
experienced facts.

Mordante, your post was way too smart, intellectual and educational to find the applause it surely deserved.
Few really like it to look into a mirror.
Logic and philosophy in its consequence does not qualify for be taken serious in personal audio nirvanas ...... it is the nature of the game: this is always about individual emotional experience via an individual matrix.
The funny thing is, that the very same lonely personal experiences often cry out for absolute statements.
Dear Mordante: I know that the Dorian is your " best " cartridge.
Well, if you can spend 200.00 buy the Azden one and if you think that after the Azden settle down and you fine tunning it that the Dorian is still your best one then let me know , send me the Azden and I pay for it.
