Technics EPC-100C MK3 (100CMK3) silver working video 1,3 g tracking force 

Thank u very much! :-) Yes, I have many cartridges, simple like Technics 270C, and Hi-End like this rare Technics 100CMK3 silver. I try to get them in Japan Yahoo Auction and then restore cosmetic into virgin condition. :-) And also it is sounds great, love vintage sound and quality :-)

@@AlexOEuro you’re welcome, and thanks for sharing these great videos. What you do in restoring these vintage gems is pretty awesome! Do you also re-tip the cantilevers and/or styluses of these cartridges or get replacements from JICO? Whatever you do, they sound great - especially when you’re positioned in the center of the room, the sound is incredible. Keep up the great work!

@@highmentalabilities I do not change canteliver from JICO stylus at all, their quality is not very good. I make re-tip canteliver only for chip cartridges, like Technics 270C, sometimes for Hi-Fi Technics 205C-II L, H, S

@@AlexOEuro Oh, even better! So we get the pleasure of hearing the pure sounds from these cartridges via their original styluses/cantilevers (except in the case where they are re-tipped, which I'm sure is still a better sound than many cartridges - including MC - made today!). In its January 1986 edition, there was an article in Audio magazine in which B.V. Pisha reviewed, tested, and measured the results of the Technics EPC-205C MK4 (the next model after this one). Using the JVC TRS-1005 test record, it not only had excellent tracking on Telarc 1812 Overture but also a channel separation of 35dB at 1kHz, 25dB at 10kHz, and 22dB at 20kHz. He also compared two analog records and their CD versions that were cut from the same master tape and concluded that the EPC-205 MK4 faithfully reproduced the recording accurately. The same, and even better, has been said of the Technics EPC-100C MK4 - with its lowest moving mass of 0.055mg. It's unfortunate cartridge manufacturers no longer make MM cartridges like this that match or even exceed today's MC cartridges. Quite sure there's a financial incentive to make and charge outrageous prices for MC instead. The only problem with these top-of-the-line vintage MM carts is that when their styluses wear out, it's hard to find a NOS replacement. In such cases, it's probably better to get them retipped with a better-profiled stylus (and or cantilever) from a highly experienced and competent re-tipper than to use cheap aftermarket replacements.
