@ crofk,

for the time being, I will use the "EE" stylus so that it will wear some more. But the Paratraced "E" stylus actuallly tracks test records better.

I may eventually order a Paratrace for this recent "EE", but there is no rush, since the original pleases me.

One week from now there is one Denon DL-110 scheduled to arrive, spanking new, and that is an interesting experiment. This will probably set me up for life. But I am still intrigued with the "Red Devil" concept which Blue Angel built (one of) a couple of months ago. That is possibly the most refined version of the "500" ever, with very low mass cantilever and magnet, as well as a Fritz Gyger stylus, and dedicated suspension. But that is for a recuperated budget, later on :shock: .

Regards,
b50 :wink:
