I ran across a shure sc35c cart at the TS and learned it was typically used in the DJ environment with a stylus tracking at 4-5 grams...however, since Howard tells me a cart is a cart, I put it on my Pioneer PL 115D tonearm (still mounted in its technics headshell) with an aftermarket stylus I had been using in the shure M75ed on my JVC Y66f turntable...I figured what the heck.
I gotta tell you the combination was sort of earthshaking. The performance was damned impressive...comparing album to cd, the album actually had better detail in some cases and actually 'better' sound. Outstanding bass and treble and balance between the two...it actually sounded like the first time I had heard this music since 1977...
Anyone else have this cart?
I can only imagine what will happen when i find a JICO non-DJ stylus for this combination...
And I wonder if it will perform better or worse if I put the SC35C on the JVC
tonearm??? I'm still pretty ignorant about matching carts to tonearms...comments and input will be appreciated...
