RE: I am no good with German

It's a very very long article written years ago by Mr. Magicdiamond (before Magic existed) in which he investigates a number of truths about vinyl (cutting, manufacturing, replay, ...). One of the conclusions is that a spherical tip (that's how Europeans call conical tips, see EMT nomenclature) is the only correct tip, and that the DL-103 is the most sane cartridge design on the market, and that just about all other 'high-end' cartridges are silly and expensive jokes. The article particularly targets a certain German cartridge/TT manufacturer. It is a fun read, insofar wading through 20+ pages of small print German (my fifth language) can be fun.
