Lyra and OMA

11Hz should be fine for the calculated resonant peak. Keep in mind that you’re using parameters (compliance and tonearm effective mass) that are good guesses at best. Fortunately there is a lot of plasticity in the equation itself as well, since it’s based on the square root of the product of two inexact quantities.

Paint me disappointed!

Thank you all for you guidance.

Michael, a few postings ahove you wrote something to the effect that the higher the effective mass, the higher the resonant frequency. Actually, it’s exactly opposite. Resonant frequency and tonearm effective mass are inversely related. So a higher mass tonearm will invariably reduce the resonant frequency for a given cartridge compliance..

One more time did you try both the Korf and or his white paper ? 

I just did a Google search and went to the first thing that looked right. I haven’t studied it yet. I will expand my google search. Thank you.
