In Reply to: The joys of proper mono posted by teenage diplomat on August 25, 2016 at 20:08:28:
When I had a dealer set up my stereo cartridge, he checked all the settings by playing a mono record (without using the mono switch on the preamp). In particular, he was listening for a rock solid central image with no smeared sibilants. When he got that right, he was satisfied.
This was the second dealer I had do it; the first one screwed up the installation badly enough that the cartridge had to be sent back for repair. I'm not saying that a mono carriage would not have made the record sound better, but am just bringing up another point of information.
The cartridge is a van den Hul Frog, on a very old Well Tempered turntable. I think the result are very good, especially in terms of imaging, focus, and depth. But I mostly listen to stereo.
