Mono cartridge for Yamaha PF-800
« on: April 27, 2017, 08:35:31 PM »
Not that I need another distraction but...with all the great mono vinyl I found last fall (and the new Robert Johnson), I am ready to look for a new cart for the mono media. 
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thx
Mike

The new Robert Johnson will benefit just as much from a mono switch as a mono cart.   It was cut on a stereo lathe for sure.   Some of your old stuff may benefit slightly from a mono cart, but I never bothered.   I prefer to record mono records in stereo because you can clean each wall separately.   Again, for listening, I just hit the mono button.

Agree with STaL on this one. Buy more records and forget the mono cart.
