Dear Thuchan, What I meant is this. The Ortofon in question
is more than 60 years old so it looks strange to me that
this cart needed to wait so long to be discovered by you. The logicaly right question should be: 'why is this cart sounding so good to ME?' Your intention was to describe a
relation between two 'objects' ( in logical sense) : you and the cart. But you are describing only the cart attributing to the thing all those qualitys. Ie independant
of your own preferences which should be also releveant by
a description of an relation.
Art Dudley just reviewed the Ortofon Collector's Box of the
''remarcable SPu's'' (Stereophile ,april 2011).'Ýour' cart is not among them. Every reader of Sterephile knows (or should) that Art is very fond of the 'oldschool gear'.
But he never told to his readers that this is a kind of his
preference based on ? ( aesthetics?). But he wants you to
believe that Thorens 124 and Garrad 301 are the best TT's
ever made. So you need only to add the 'banana' EMT 997 to
reach the Nirvana. This is called 'sefprojection'. So we get 'rhythm', 'pace' and even the 'silence between the notes' as qualia delivered by the 'idler drive'. As soon as
he can convince Syntax about those qualia I will reconsider
both TT's. In a distant past I owned both and even then thought that I need to become a rocket scientist to be able to build a rocket silo for them. But we are talking about different levels of our hobby and as Raul stated somewhere a music lover will also enjoy a cheap radio.
BTW I write feedbacks only for the items I bought on the
internet.
