***Here we go! What an accomplishment! I wonder if the Lyra cartridges sound so gray and so boring because of this “accomplishment” or there is any other reasons.
***I knew that the reference to his high gain Connoisseur phono stages is coming.
Self-promotion isn't too surprising here. These are his babies.
***Yes, and now. What Jonathan forgets to mention that using the phrases “under-damping” and “overdamping” he implies that there is such a thing as a “correct exact damping”. However, the “correct damping” is unfortunately exist only in a virtual subjective perception and HUGELY depending on very- very- very many others, primary masking factors.
Now we are getting nearer to the point. It strikes me as funny that some vinyl people calculate cartridge loading to a precision of 0.1 ohms.
***(even if I do agree that a transformer ordinary do act as a band-pass filter)
Look, vinyl people hold very strong opinions about having the precise cartridge loading for their cartridge. Some claim +/- 1 or 2 ohms is critical. But if the objective of loading is to tame RF resonances, and step-up transformers filter these frequencies, then what are the 0.1 ohm people talking about? I believe they make changes because they think it sounds better. But this has nothing to do with the intended objective of taming RF peaking.
