Default The Phallacy Of High Dollar Cartridges

The LP is only so good as a medium of signal (don't be
like the ass- sniffers at one local audio saloon and say
"INFORMATION") transfer and preservation. Modern high
dollar phono carts often cost more than the cutter heads
used to cut the all-time classic albums (at the time they
were new, adjusted for inflation) but really the curve of
diminishing returns strikes early in the price point
shuffle.
Boon thinks price and performance in phono cartridges is
inexorably and somewhat linearly related.


Pretty much the truth.

Arny hates
vinyl so much that he no longer can function in
addressing the issue.


Simply not true. I just like pulling people's chains.

Boon and Arny are like the Republicans and Democrats.


There are fools and geniuses in both parties. Marc is one of the fools in
the LP group. Thing is, he's all about out dropping names and makes and
models of gear. Nobody would actually tough really good stuff if it were
delicate. He's as much of a klutz with his hands as he is with words.


Are you on drugs? What are you talking about? Why do you think I'm a
klutz? I can properly mount and align a cartridge in just a few
minutes, and I do it at least once a month.

You're just grasping at straws at this point.
