thanks 

There are quite a lot of questions raised over the suitability of cartridge X vs cartridge Y and how these perform with era gold etc. 

Given that there some on the forum with or have experience of many cartridges how about starting a cartridge section for members the populate with their own experiences?

My own experiences are modest less than 10 anyway but would this be a useful addition?

I like the idea Richard. Cartridge corner is a naff name so suggestions welcome. How would you and others want the thread or threads structured, one thread or different ones?

I will sidestep the name thing, but how about structuring by brand then subsections by model.  This perhaps could be extended with a further section on GSP phon stages and comments by model?

There is probably a way knitting the two together but beyond my simple mind but some form of dataBase, the GSP ones could be linked to the product page?

There have been many comments in differing threads over the years which in theory could be fed in to these.

Okay, open to suggestions on how to host users' views on their cartridges please? Right now I'm moving the stylus microscope stuff out from here.

All this talk of threads and needles (as my mother used to call styluses). We need a sub-forum for cross-stitch fans . . . LOL

TBH I've never found a cartridge not to perform well with any of Graham's phono amps. Maybe I've never had one with crazy loading needs. The thread might get quite repetitive - does xxx cartridge work well with the EGV? Yes. Does yyy work with the ReflexM? Yes. etc etc.

Maybe I'm missing something here - quite likely as senility beckons Wink . . .

Now peoples' opinions about cartridges is a different matter. A thread called something like "Tell us about your cartridges" could go down well.

Bob thanks. The point perhaps trying to be made was that quite often questions are asked whether Catt A will work with an era gold/ reflex.  Whilst the answers should be yes I suspect people are comforted to know that others use it and good results are obtained?

....there is a section on the Audiomods website on cartridges Jeff has had reports from his customers.  That is one option for structure/layout.
