Show us your Phono Cartridges
I thought it would be some fun to see all the different phono cartridges that the AA folk own.
Here are a few of mine. Ortofon A90 - transparent to the source dynavector XV-1 - a legend MC cartridge with long stylus life Ortofon SPU - enuf said Technics EPC-P100CMK4 - probably about the best MM ever made - competes easily with any LOMC. Ebony Denon 103R - equisite ebony wood shell for the classik 103r Denon DL-S1 - overachieving top of the line Denon LOMC. |

So where are your photo's Jerome ?
With the LP12 at the moment I use an ESC'd Linn Troika. takes me right back to when I was a Linn Naim man and Troika was king. I stupidly traded my Troika on an original Arkiv - a terrible cartridge if ever was one. I have to take a photo of the Troika and post. cheers |

Here is my humble Grado Reference Sonata on the Linn Itock LVII arm.
Thinking about moving up to a Reference Master1 or a Clearaudio Virtuoso or a Clearaudio Maestro Wood . Decesions, decisions. |

You sure do have an impressive collection of gear there! I was wondering how you like the TW/Graham combo vs the LP12/ARO combination? |

Goldfinger contains >16g of 24k gold which would spot at around $1k just for the metal. With Goldfinger around 2.5 the price, you'd expect it to sound golden as well. Last edited by MyPal; 06-16-2012 at 11:13 AM. |
