I have used the 10E Mk.IV in what would seem to be heavier than optimal arms successfully. I do have other suitable armboards and lower mass arms though.Originally Posted by Barry

It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

After the Pioneer PD-S505 Precision CD player (seemingly) let me down, I bunged the Trichord Research Digital Turntable transport into the system with the trusty little V-DAC and it's sounding really fine. Stupid thing is, I had the same non-reading of discs as I'd had with the PD-S505................. it was a dud CD!Talk about overlooking the obvious!! Anyway, I'll reassemble the PD-S505 and test it with another disc, bet it'll be fine. I have to say, I've never had a CD that wouldn't play at all before.
Yes, I know it all needs a dust and polish.

The humble M75 is my favourite Shure cartridge. I sold both my M95 and my V15-III but kept the M75.Well this is remarkably good.
Shure M75ED cartridge in my TD150 II, fitted with a very rare NOS Goldring M75E stylus. Yes, that's right, Goldring made replacement styli for Shure cartridges for a while and this one is unused (until now). I expect it to be every bit as good as the Shure original, it's sounding truly fine.

I wouldn't mind an M91ED to go with it.

Literally the same thing in a different plastic shroud... The old M75-6S (with the metal clip mount) is the best M75 to have because it accepts both M75 and M91 styli. The part that goes inside the cartridge body is the same on both M75 and M91 styli, it's only the shape of the plastic grip that's different.

I had several M91ED's years ago and loads of the M75 variants. I just fancied another M91ED to round off the (modest) collection.

Perhaps the CD needed a dust & polish too. I had a mate who swore by T-cut for his scratched discs.

we used tcut and similar in the industry.. we had hundreds of cd jukes and they can be hard on cds at times.. tcut etc, and my preference was the wadding version fixed 95% of them

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

It is mint. I'll be having another look at it though.
