Cartridge Experts

No, a longer cantilever doesn't necessarily mean more mass. All variables must be taken into account when designing ANYTHING including cartridges. Magnet strength, flex, mass, suspension compliance, resonance, etc., etc., etc. That is what makes it an art and best be left to the artists.

Stringreen, are you trying to say if I'm not an artist I should mind my own business? If everyone listened to that advise nothing new would ever happen.

naw, i think he is saying that whether short or long cantilever, the designer understands why he/she made it the way it was made and took a lot of variables into consideration besides length. but again i could be wrong!!!!

No Oilman...you are correct. Then too if Sarcher could provided works of notable effort, he would be an artist.

Sorry, must be male pms.
