Hi, Jamie,

I worked one summer at Fisher Radio when they were still in Long Island 
City. One very good engineer there gave me a Shure M91ED saying that it 
did not ring the way my Stanton 681 EE rang and he thought I'd like it 
more. Well, I did not, it sounded dull.

Later, and I've yet to find a scan of this article, I think it was Audio 
magazine did some scanning electron micrographs of the common CBS 
STR-??? test record that was used for these tests and the ringing was 
CUT INTO THE CBS-STR??? test record!

At least that is my recollection.

If anyone finds the SEM Audio article, I'd love a scan.

So, please be careful where you go with ringing on old phonograph 
cartridge reviews.

Cheers,

Richard
