Hi All,
I have a question with regard to:
>>> I nominate the Ortofon 2M Black ...... Also cheaper to own than an equivalently priced MC <<<< and the comment
+++ I would look at the Dynavector 10X5 or 20X .... +++
Has anyone had a chance to compare these at all?
I am familiar with the sound of the 10x5 and 20X for that matter, and would think that the "2M Black" would be the better sounding cart, i.e. more resolved (by far?) than the 10x5 and less 'grainy?' than the 20X with an equivalent bass performance, something to say in terms of the 20X's bass power!
Can anyone comment on this at all?
BTW, this expectation is based on listening to a number of decent MM carts lately such as a P77, EEI 500, Empire S1000 ZE/X ... these are all real old-timers and sound better over all than the Dyna's mentioned --- not to say that those are bad carts in any way!
Now with the "2M Black" we see the latest interpretation of MM technolgy as well.
It's just that I lately found out, that some of these old MMs have more 'musical magic' than a lot of even more pricey MCs then e.g. 10x5 or 20X...
Greetings,
Axel
