I think JE has tried enough MM's to conclude reasonably that MC's sound better to him. I also understand what you mean by the way he delivers his opinions.
Yep, I meant wood bodies in general used on carts by Denon and AT. And Benz now that I think of it. They dampen the cart.
In my own experience, I have found examples of different designs that I like quite a bit. I like to think of myself as repulsed by dogmatism regarding our hobby. I don't necessarily care how a result is attained, at least at first. What counts is the result. Perhaps in time I may become curious about how that result was gotten. Carts are a funny component, and rightfully viewed with scepticism. I don't share JE's love for the DL-S1, although I do like my DL-103D quite a bit.
For the last 18 months, I've preferred my Cadenza Bronze above all comers. With my BAT VK-10SE or my Lehmann Audio Decade, the Bronze delivers a level of palpability that none, save a retipped Fidelity Research FR-1 MKIII delivers from my stable, and I own quiet a few myself.
