Only doesn't sound it.



Dave, tell me more about these. not familiar with them. Do remember
Orthophon of yore but been a long time since involved in this area.


They're ancient carts dating back to before the days of CD, but I had a
few good ones lying around, and since now prefer CD my LPs only get
occasional plays. It could well be there are better modern replacements.
Indeed I'd bet there are.

Are you using an SME III with damper?


Yup.

Low output shouldn't be a problem.
I am using a QUAD 44, can get a MC module.


OK.
