    Vintage Cartridge Hunting - Episode 1: A Grado Something or Other

    My most successful way of accumulating vintage cartridges these days is to look for filthy/broken/junk turntables and harvest the cartridges from them. Such tables seem to be the only thing that show up at Goodwill or on craigslist fro less than $100 these days. I can often get the table...

    Which Protractor Should I Use?

    Hey there all, I have just installed the much lauded 8MZ to kickstart my Grado Black and after all the hype I'm not completely sold. I have a feeling that you could align this stylus extremely well and it would still want perfection. I've tried Stevenson and Lofgren B in a plug in generator...

    Advise on Grado cartridge match...

    Recently got a Thorens TD-318 table to restore and put in my home office system. My plan was to put on a Denon DL160 or possibly Empire 3000 ME/X or maybe Shure V15iii cart. Was leaning slightly toward the Denon. Then just for kicks I left the Grado on that came on the table for check out...

    I have a Grado Black body that I'd like to update with a 8MZ stylus: however now I have chance to buy a 8MZ signature body for 100 euros. Which difference should I find in sound quality with the full 8MZ combo compared to black/8MZ combo? Ìt is worthwhile to spend other 100 euro over the other...
