You can´t compare an entry level mm against the upper mc class ! Gentleman ...for your kind attention some facts about the Ania MC , this is how it looks like 😁 The Rega Ania Pro is the latest addition to the Rega MC range and uses an advanced Nude Diamond Stylus with Vital Profile. This profile has been developed to extract as much detail as possible from the vinyl surface. The Ania Pro offers tight, deep, warm mids and precise peak frequencies for balanced and detailed music reproduction. Load settings for adjustable MC stages , Impedance -100 Ohm , Capacitance - 1000pF

the answer is so simple ....Differences in length between the cables used in a system are practically irrelevant. At 3 m ≠ 8 m this is certainly the case, but at 2 m ≠ 50 m this statement may no longer be true. Use a 2,5 mm2 ( AWG 14 ) per phase and you´ll be fine !

My first pair of real Klipsch speakers... KM4! (KG 3.5)
MicroMara replied to twilliams_007's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
@Joefi1973 I can confirm most from your imppressions about the KG3.5 ( KM 4 ) as I owned them as well , i kept the origin klipsch polymer diafragms and renovated the whole speakers inside as well as outside and after approx 30 years of age it was time to refurbish the x-overs caps & resistors . I´m not saying that this must be done with yours as well , but was neccessary to the pair that I owned. Once I published a thread in the KC , this may inspires you ? -
some fun for ya

Sorry for off topic ....... I've been back @home for 2 hours. Unbelievable things happened to me today So I'm on the train to Bad Eilsen in the Weserbergland and call there during the train ride to confirm the shuttle service from the train station to the rehab clinic. The clerk is completely surprised that I am on my way to Bad Eilsen, because he has no free room for me and tells me by phone that I was scheduled for February 13, 2024, as I have in writing, but that the appointment was canceled due to a missing confirmation of cost absorption by the pension insurance. He had already informed my health insurance company of this on February 5, 2024, but they did not inform me. They would have been obliged to do so! When I called my health insurance company during the train journey, after I had to clarify the problem 4 times with 4 different clerks, I only got to hear "Sorry, something went wrong". And ! ....Now neither the rehabilitation clinic, the pension insurance nor the health insurance company feels responsible for reimbursing me for the travel costs for the outward and return journey. Normally the pension insurance reimburses the costs for the train journey or similar. There was also an application in the correspondence, but this must be submitted to the DB at least 10 days before the start of the journey, but the letter from the rehabilitation clinic only reached me on 07.02.24, i.e. 6 days before the start of the journey, and I was forced to buy the tickets myself. During the rehab I could have applied to the pension insurance for reimbursement of costs, but as this rehab is not taking place now, logically I will not be reimbursed for the travel costs for a rehab that is not taking place! I just say ... " German bureaucracy " Now I have to wait for another invitation from the rehabilitation clinic .......

sure it will have better specs than the origin and it´s always worth to invest some dollar in this vintage card

Don´t know whether I will have a lot of time to spin some records this weekend , there a many preparations to be done till monday afternoon. I´m going to leave for the rehab early tuesday morning at 7 am. I hope the orthopaedists will get my broken spine and hinges back in a better condition. The last few months I was strictly forbidden to put any kind of heavy strain on my body, so I'm curious. I expect to be back on march 5th.

The journey by train only takes 3 hours.

The general recommended speed limit in germany in the cities is 31 mph, outside from cities and country roads is 50 mph, on highways 75 mph and the general speed recommondation on the autobahn is 80 mph , but 1/3 of our autobahns are free from any speed limit , so there the porsches , bmw´s , mercedes, or whatever can speed up to max . 160 mph .

Indeed ! At the moment I use an Moving Irion Cart from ADC on the SME 3009 Arm and an Lentek Entré 1 Moving Coil on the Micro Seiki Ma 505 Arm .
