Anthony,
Considering the date of this paper, I think Ortofon was supporting the MC as a superior transducer. After all they invented it and were selling higher priced MCs. Throughout the '80s the Japanese seemed to benefit the most with less expensive models becoming popular.
The contention that superior phase response is entirely responsible for superior imaging, seems to ignore the rising high end of the MC200. This might be a factor, but the description was convincing. As damping was added to an unlistenable, undamped MC, imaging suffered along with phase response. To bad they didn't name the 5 MM.
Your choice of the 681 as the other extreme of inductance, is a good one. What's the inductance > 900mH ? If a cart like this can do as well as it does, what's the potential for MM with less than half that amount?
