Faced with the OP situation I would suspect an owner has removed a
connector using pliers and has twisted the pin in the plastic and so
internal broken wire at the output. I would .5mm disc grind in and/or
melt in around a suspect pin. Then consider chucking if break is
within a coil, but would certainly explore the construction because I
don't think I've seen inside a magnestic cartridge.

See? See? What did I tell you?

You're what, 11 years old?

Hmm, that's odd: I remember you posting earlier in this thread:

N. Cook obsession noted. And laughed until breathless at.

Guess we just caught you in an off moment, eh?
Unlike you I never have off moments. You're an asshole, just admit it and
you will feel better.

Hello again all,

When I posted my request, I was trying to save a customer some
money on
a repair that was getting expensive.

ONE person actually sent me an e-mail with some useful info on a
web
site that had a similar cartridge at a reasonable price, and thanks to
him for that.

I had NO INTENTIONS of starting a thread on bashing an individual.
It's not your fault. There are a few megalomaniacs in this news group
that will jump at the chance to bash others. Example: Dave Nebenzahl
using your post to belittle N. Cook. No reason for it besides a childish
ego thing.

To the O.P.: as the one who took the thread off on a tangent, be assured
that I had no intentions of implicating YOU here. Don't worry; you are
blameless.

Careful, Meathead: after all, 'twas you who wrote in this thread:

N. Cook obsession noted. And laughed until breathless at.
Or are you now claiming that this was posted by an imposter?

Cook. Now, fuck off child.

Ah, a manners insult from the same person who posted these unprovoked
attacks on N. Cook.

"Cue N. Cook with nonsense about opening up cartridge and repairing open
winding ... or at least endless speculation about *why* it failed"

Yes Dave, belittling N. Cook for having an inquisitive and experimenter's
mindset. That's really 'good' manners huh?

And:

"But I recognize there are limits. N. Cook does not."

"Repair a lousy magnetic cartridge? Are you serious? I'll bet he would
actually get out his .5mm disc grinder if this equipment landed in his
"shop". Sheesh."

"Hey, he's free to broadcast the results of his bodgering here as much as
he likes. I'm free to ridicule him. See how that works?"

Once again Dave unprovoked, attacks M. Cook for being an experimenter
and being inquisitive. Good manners? Hardly.


It's Dave's 'do as I say (not as I do)' bizzaro-hypocrisy world.

Don't play the 'manners' card on me when you have none yourself.
Now again I urge you to fuck off.

With a hobby, it doesn't matter much if it takes time to fix
something like that out of all proportion to the cost of replacement. It's
the satisfaction you get from doing it which is priceless.
Absolutely. Not only that, you learn so much more about how what you
are fixing works, and that's useful experience for future jobs.

IF YOU CAN'T STAND POSTINGS FROM A CERTAIN INDIVIDUAL (including me)
DON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT IT. Instead, either skip over posts from that
person, or learn to use your browsers' features and block posts from
that person.

While I do find some people attempt repairs that I would not, I also
find that sometimes they have something useful to say, or have found an
reasonable way to repair something that I thought could not be repaired
for less than the cost of replacement.

P.S. I had my brands wrong. The cartridges I used to see open windings
in all the time was Micro Acoustics, not Audio Technica. My apologies
to Audio Technica. (My memory is getting sort of foggy.)

Original post:

Hello all,


I've got a customer's turntable here with a Shure M105E p-mount
cartridge in it. The stylus is fine, but the cartridge itself has an
open winding. I've seen this in Audio Technica and Grado cartridges
over the years, but never before in a Shure. Any chance you've got a
good body without a stylus you'd part with? (In the USA preferred. I'll
gladly pay shipping.)

Thanks!

Tim,

Micro Acoustics cartridges didn't have coils. It was actually Ortofon
cartridges and whatever name they gave their cheap line of cartridges.
Those cartridges, whose name I can't recall, usually had an open coil
within 3 years. Chuck
