| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Lewm, I thought the highs on the Azden were etched on some lps when I first tried it but it seemed to settle down after 10-20 hours. The next time I tried it the suspension became weak and I have put it away for now. It sounded real good while it ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? The point of Raul's treatise was to take another look at the best MM/MI and see how they stood up to MC, not to determine if they were better or worse. To get back to the natural flow of the music instead of dissection of it. Some MC are highly th... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Just an honest question, no sarcastic or frustration intended. Is the Technics 100c better than the Acutex 320/315 and Empire 400D3?Had the chance to get the Technics 100c as mentioned but already have Acutex and Empire. After looking for a while ... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Timeltel, Took off the Signet3a/AT 140lc to listen to the Signet MR 5.0me. I listened all week to this cartridge and I have to say it leans more towards the detail category but is still musical. At first I thought it had a little to much edg... | |
| Soundsmith's turnaround time? I had a problem with my Soundsmith MMC2 with a loose cantilever. I sent it to him and had it back in about a month.He charged me nothing although it was over a year out of warranty.Never heard anything from them. | |
| What's the objection to Floor Standing Speakers? Is it possible Lrsky's strong reaction was because the floorstander's he has been lusting after were shot down in favor of standmounts and he has already been told they are visually smaller but can't see that logic?Or just a real bad day. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Timeltel, The AT 140lc/ Signet 3ea combo is very good.I know now why you asked question about favorite stylus types.The high frequencies are detailed but very smooth.It seems to pick up the spacial cues of recording extremely well.Did anyone else ... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Raul, I am looking for the 100MK4 and own the 205MK3. Sorry for the confusion.I would not mind a 205MK4 though. I believe you when you say the 100MK4 is in a different league. Just have to find one to see for myself. Still have another 25-3... | |

IMHO.Good luck in your vinyl journey and have fun.Looking for g... | |
