The Phallacy Of High Dollar Cartridges

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.

and somewhat linearly related.
No, I don't. I've been using a $399 cartridge on my rig for the last
6 months and I love it. And I've written about it extensively in
print.
I guess I should have put it on Steve Sailer's website so you could
have avoided this mistake.
