Yes, of course. (I'd forgotten USB) But at about £12 for the
cartridge, I can't imagine it would be even moving magnet.


I dunno the relative manufacturing costs of MM versus ceramic. This
sort of thing has shifted dramatically with CAD machinery.


Oh, so whats now considered a good cartridge?
It used to be (generally) moving coils in the days before things went
crazy.




Like cars/toasters/lawnmowers/DVDPs &c. nowadays, cartridges all do pretty
much the same job somewhat differently at vastly differing prices and it's
hard to find one that isn't good in its own way - the first question in all
these cases would have to be 'what's your budget'....???
