Re: f/u to "dumb" cartridge question

I'm afraid that I have not mounted the type IV body yet. I got the extra stylus largely to use as a spare in the type III body and as an easy way to check the condition of my present stylus. When it arrived, I tried the new stylus in my type III body in the SMEIIIs arm on my modified rega and is sounded about the same as my existing stylus. ie pretty good to my ear with no obvious problems. When I first got the type IV body, I tried it out in another turntable with my existing VN35MR stylus. It sounded OK but this other turntable was not as good and I didn't do a comparison between the III and IV bodies in the same turntable.
If I have time tonight, I will switch the bodies in my SME and see what I think.

Regards
David
