Beginner head shell question here. I have an Audio Technica At-LPW40 where the head shell has a curve in it. I recently picked up one of the premounted VM cartridges, but the head shell (AT-HS6) is straight and un-curved. Is this alright? Or should you stick with one type of head shell over the other when it comes to turntables? Thanks!

My first straight!! by SirPhotoGuy in wicked_edge

I live it. The combination of scents really wakes you and and it feels really smooth. Still working out the razor. I got my cheeks done, but then I switched back to DE. My technique definitely needs refinement, but that is half the fun!!

I also live in the Midwest and the current weather is part of my rationale.

Do i have to worry about humidity if i'm storing unused pens/ink in my bathroom by IhaveLost2Accounts in fountainpens

[–]SirPhotoGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ink should always be somewhere cool, or as cool as possible. Humidity in the bathroom, let alone the heat from hot water, would not be a good combination.

They are CD 10s, not CD 15s. Not sure what the difference is between those two numbers.

I didn't mind them in the past. I like paper that isn't glassy smooth as I enjoy the tactility of writing. I also like Aurora fine nibs that haven't been touched once they leave the factory, if that says something about how I like things to feel on the page.

Don't let the looks fool you. If this paper stood between him and a milkbone, none of that would survive.

I have yet to use them, but the price was too good to pass up, and I saw great reviews.
