Shure M78S frequency response

are frequency response data for the Shure M78S available? - I would like
to be able to compensate for its own frequency aberrations when making
transfers ... Shures website does not appear to contain anything but the
enclosed leaflet in pdf-form.
The response will be totally different on different arms and with different
tracking arrangements.
Get the Shure S16 test record, play back some sweeps, and measure the
response yourself.
Or even better, fiddle with the arm arrangement until the response is
flat. Don't forget to get the square wave tracks to look like real square
waves on playback!
You can't look at the response of the cartridge in isolation because it's
part of a system. You have to look at the cartridge/arm combination, and
even then you should expect things to change with altered setup. The
test sweeps will show you most of what you need to know and the square
wave will show you the rest.
