matching cartridge and speakers


A lot of talk about matching cartridge and arm, and cartridge and phono. And rightly so.
However, that's not all, I believe. These are two points where energy transformation happens. The rest, with the exception of turntable itself, are just supporting structures and "wire with gain". Cartridge and speakers make music.
Opinions?

Your last post is the epitome of the cruel reality in audio and of course WE NEED TO OVERTURN THIS AT LAST.
Very serious My dear D. This is the reality and this is the honest, real & valuable contribution of a Agon member.
My self-sarcasm is not "brilliant". It is true and sincere.
Unless you feel that the self-route to progression is not allowed to exposed in public. I want to point, demonstrate and prove the path of the wrong direction. No need to hide things that can be of a major help here.
Well - reality bites ...... which is an inevitable side-effect of reality .... it is real.
Enjoy the trip.
As a serious epigraph: do take care to match cartridge's dynamic-mechanical parameters with the moving effective mass and energy conductivity of your tonearm.
Likewise try to match the output stage of your amplifier according to your speakers x-over/voice coils inductance/resistance and capacitance.
Those are the things to match if you want to "match" speakers and cartridge.
Match their parameters with the direct partners.
For real world's sake and best results.
Now you talking. We were in a complete agreement from start. The only difference is that I choose to focus on the brain storm after the marketing onslaught in our hobby and how can alter the logical steps to the direction of a twisted reality.
And -it's epilogue, not epigraph.

And -it's epilogue, not epigraph<<

Sorry Aristotle, epigraph was used correctly.

Epigraph- "A motto or quotation, as at the beginning of a literary composition, setting forth a theme".

Epilogue- "A short poem or speech spoken directly to the audience following the conclusion of a play".

And it's "now you're talking", not "not you talking".

Unless of course you be from the hood.
Bill, the key word is "the conclusion" and this I believe Daniel means by closing this theme.
OK my English are lousy, but as you see, I'm trying hard to express something important here so, don't be such a picky Bill now.
