Re: [ARSCLIST] Stanton D5127 stylus
Hi Parker,
I stand corrected, the Elberg MD-12 Mk2 (released about May 2004)
has moving coil support and plenty of gain for the Ortofon SPU-GT.
However, those who have an older/original Elberg MD-12 may not have
sufficient gain for a low output moving coil cartridge. In that
case, they should consider purchasing the newer Mk2 (available
from you). :-)
