Default Moving-coil cartridges

Measurements for cartridges don't really tell you much. Sure, they can
show
frequency response, square-wave response, ringing, output level,
compliance,
tracking ability, distortion, etc., etc., etc.


All of which (other than square wave response,) tell you lots about how
the
cartridge sounds.

But none of these tells you how the cartridge will sound.


Experience says otherwise.


Not only that, but square wave response tells you much about frequency
response, ringing, and tracking response as well.


That would be completely wrong. I've already explained to you how square
wave response confuses frequency response (which matters) with phase
response which in general does not.

Please provide equations that unambiguously convert square wave response
into traditional or non-traditional measures of nonlinear distortion. Of
course, no such thing exists nor can it exist because of all of the
confusion factors.
