| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thanks Raul,It took over 200 hours before the PS Audio really settled in. I only wish it had 70k and/or 100k loading option(s) and don't know if it can be modified. The DL-S1 will have some pretty stiff competition from the 4000D/III and MF-200.John | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Thanks Danny, just ordered a NOS MF-300 stylus from Ed Crockett to try on my MF-200 cartridge. The price was very reasonable. It will be interesting to compare the two.John | |

Thanks, they had both the original (brass arm) and the Gold styli and without your know... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Acman3,The MfF listing was no doubt a help in limiting bidders; I thought it would sell closer to $300. Are the 200/300 styli interchangeable? The 300 is an elliptical isn't it?Not even a hint of stridency and 'Highway 61' is my usual litmus... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Raul,The MF 200 sounds better with every side I play, probably only 8 hours on it so it should continue to improve. It looks a little strange when playing, as the body and the stylus guard ride much closer to the record surface than any othe... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello Raul and Acman3,RE: The aptly named Astatic MF 200. I bought this last week on the bay and strangely enough I was the only bidder. The first 3 to 4 sides I played sounded very ordinary, then it began to open up and OMG! Passed the 'Highway 6... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Hello to all, I wonder if someone can give me advice on a possible purchase(s) from a seller who doesn't have the best reputation. The Bluz Bros. aka as adelcom.net advertise a lot of styli and cartridges for sale. However, I have seen on this thr... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? WOW!I have to admit to lurking on this thread for some time and have found it very informative and of late extremely entertaining. I do not profess to have the experience or the "golden ears" to properly evaluate these cartridges and I know that R... |
