It actually is. It's good to try to decipher specs in other languages.
In running dollars, just a tad over 80 at the moment because the exchange rate took a zag for the worse.
Surprisingly well, especially considering there doesn't appear to be a single exotic material or component in the cartridge. Could they have learned this trick from P.Pritchard?
I typed it as quietly as possible!
I think this cartridge is in a wide sweet spot-- a sweet splotch, if you will. VTF is 1.5 to 2.0g, give or take. This makes it good for a broad swath of '70s arms. No need to whip out your old Black Widow.
Yes. I was demo-ing the 312 for my audiobuddy but it sounded too damn bright, which of course was worsened by playing it at the level my friend prefers. My eyes flicked instinctively to the loading switch on the Hitachi HCA-8500 Mk II: 100k. I'd left it there after playing with the PickerStan UV-15/Q combo.
Facepalm.
At 47k Spyro Gyra sounded like they were solidly locked in the timestage of summer 1979. My friend also noted the precise imaging of the setup, including the strong phantom center channel; the little Hafler M5s were working well with the 312.
So the 312 is rewardingly sensitive to R loading. You can make it cut through pea soup or lay waaay back. That's only a slight exaggeration.
