Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
Is it possible we are back to "people hear different"? Some people's turntables are driving them crazy with speed errors that others cannot detect, while others are saying the pitch of a certain instrument was off, and another cannot detect that. ...

Charles1dad, I have been listening to Shirley Scott with Lockjaw Davis, on a " Cookbook'' compilation. Great playing from everyone. Jerome Richardson adds a lot of great flute playing.I think I have the original recordings somewhere??? 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
I am exactly the opposite of Lewm and Mike. I rarely listen to the same cartridge for more than a week at a time. I am able to listen to music for about 4-5 hours a night, when my wife is in China, ( about 5-6 months a year) and about 2 hours a ni... 
Most expensive piece of vinyl you acquired is?

Hello Raul, I have finally got the Shure 140he broke in, I think. It has about 25 hours now. At the 10-15 hour mark I was ready to quit, and was very disappointed, but now, all is good. Took a lot of tweaking the setup also. It is real smooth, and...

Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?
I was finally able to find a Shure 120he cartridge, and having purchased a couple of 140he stylus awhile back, now have a Shure 140he. It is starting to sound good, although only a few hours on it. The guard on the 140he is not a snap off, and see...
