Dover,
I feel you misunderstand the reasons for my preference for MMs over MCs?
I do not hear an abundance of high frequency exaggeration in MCs.
I have at least 3 or 4 MM cartridges which give a greater and more detailed extension into the upper frequencies than any LOMC cartridges I have heard in my system.
I also have an equal number of MM cartridges which can plumb the depths of bass with greater authority and better control than any of the LOMCs I have heard in my system.
There is one magical cartridge (the Professor knows it)......which performs both these feats (and more) at the same time!
Brightness has never been a problem in my system or listening room unless the pressing or cartridge presents as such.
