and I mean no disrespect, but the CD you sent me demonstrated the Grado as having a severe channel balance problem and in fact could have also been out of phase. There was also a significant amount of speed control variation coming through the rather high degree of surface noise on some of the cuts as well. In fact, the "wow" was too severe to even listen to the RLJ cut and the Eagles cut with any amount of seriousness.To be honest, I am not sure how anyone could glean the sonics of a phono cartridge based upon the overall quality of the playback demonstrated on that CD, let alone a comparison of two.
That said, I am not quite sure how to validate your comments with respect to the Grado vs. the ADC.
Don't take this as a slam but as an objective observation wholly based upon the CD you sent me.
