The system video is pretty amazing too. Obsessions bordering on insanity…
Only got about half-way through but references to an NZ hydraulics engineer re platter and the Wand arm. Favourite quote: “I really feel in our business, in our hobby, more people need to stand up more often”, referencing a pre-amp where the remote wouldn’t change the inputs. And merit award for: “Room decay, better than tooth decay.”

I think he's damaged his brand by discussing Mr Wilson's health.. not impressed. Some will think it's funny or amusing I dear say.

Post by RdM on May 3, 2023 20:28:30 GMT 12Great link, thanks Michael! I'd paused it about at the half way through 'interlude' at 34:24, but now it seems I'll have to scroll to there again after a Firefox update and restart. Oh, maybe not - there it is! But I might scroll back to set up the AT-30E segment, below. I'd already noted that the Audio Technica AT-30E is mentioned ! - from ~ 4:32 to 5:19 minutes in. He's not quite right about it being the only replaceable MC stylus; I've already mentioned the Empire MC 20+ and the AT-30E here. Hey, maybe I should kindly and pleasantly email him about them and that! ;=})) Here it is cued up to that point: paulsaints has one of these. I still must microscopically examine my older two styli and compare them with the new one!

I still have a Pioneer PC-3MC body, stylus trashed. Went with their proprietary carbon something arm on what looked like a slightly plasticly looking turntable that actually didn't sound too bad at the price point, and maybe later ones. I forget model numbers, maybe later, but easily searched. A better TT than VinylEngine mentions for it. I used to have it. So that's 3 removable MC stylus cartridges now.
