oldred Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I got a couple of old cartridges sitting around. Just trying to find out which one is better Shure M95ED or Signet 5 TKE? ...both completely original and in great shape Just had to ask....

thebes Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Well George that depends on what type of arm it's going on. Something called compliance which I don't understand too well myself cause it involves math and other stuff. Here's a decent explanation on a thread over at AK: http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/what-does-cartridge-compliance-really-mean-in-practice.345487/ I have had the Signet TKE 3 and liked it. Both the Signet and the Shure are probably conical stylii. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldred Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 Well. I decided to change to the Signet 5 ...all I can say is ....I don't know anything about compliance. What I do know is is my Chorus II's never sounded so good. Wow. Thanks, George, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, George The Shure M95ED has an elliptical stylus (The E in the model), here's the pdf for the cartridge.http://cdn.shure.com/user_guide/upload/1056/us_pro_m95ed_ug.pdf The Signet also appears to be Elliptical Sorry I could not find a pdf data sheet for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemon string Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I have a signet on my office TT, gyrodeck, I bought it used. It came with a Signet and I was told they were the premium offering from technics if memory serves me right. The one on my table sounds really nice.
