Possible to use MM card to the Klyde?

Posted by: Swe152 on 27 March 2003

Have a worned out Phonosophie Chiave PU for my LP12/Lingo/LV3, so consider to buy a s/h Klyde MCpu. Do I need to buy another MC card to use it sufficiently for my 52 or is it possible to use with the MMcard?
Thanks n advanced for advices!

Hi Olaf,

the Klyde is for use with MC cards only, you could also use a transformer to amplify the signal to MM level.

Have you thought about replacing the old Chiave with a new one? If you send back the cartridge to Phonosophie you will get a new one for a reduced price (but I don't now the the actual price).

Hope that helps,
Thomas

Yes Ive considered that but cant reach them on their website anymore . Ordered a new needle 3-4 yrs ago and that worked well. Are Ph. still in business? Do you know that? Have you got any contactnumbers or e-mails to people working there?
