Was just thinking the other day that, since we are told that all the cantilever/styli for all cartridges are manufactured by one of two or maybe three different companies, who makes CF cantilevers? And are all of them from the same source and therefore internally identical? This in part addresses the issue raised by Pindac re variations on how a CF cantilever might be made. If only one company is making them, we cannot expect competition to make them better or even different from one another according to cartridge brand.

There is still diamond and cactus cantilever in modern cartridges @pindac . |
All the above references to Materials for a Cantilever are Olden as a design concept. Diamond is a Allotrope of Carbon, as well as Graphite, Fullerenes and CFN-T. There is no reason why a CFN-T as a Cantilever is not Parity or surpassing Diamond, as the CFN-T has the most lightweight and rigid structure. More importantly its structure will be much much much more robust than Diamond, that must give the notion of a CFN-T being used as the more attractive to those on a reduced budget. Recently a Diamond Cantilever was revealed as being $2Kish to purchase solely. A CFN-T Cantilever Cartridge is today able to purchased for not too different monies. As stated: it would be nice for someone who has daily concerns that relate to this type of Technology to share a thought on the nano-tube materials referenced. |
