The transition from ceramic to magnetic cartridge use generally took place during the 1970 s.
Ceramic cartridge amplifier.
After plugging a ceramic cartridge turntable into a auz input on a stereo it seems this is correct as the sound is somewhat tinny though the volume.
4 5 out of 5 stars 290.
Ceramic cartridges are used in environments which are easily disturbed and require the needle to stay in the groove.
Mm s will typically be loaded with capacitive loading in the pf range.
I upgraded this to a moving magnet and this type has been my prefered choice ever since.
But the nostalgic type players of today persist in using ceramic cartridges.
The op amp circuit uses a tl071 connected as a voltage follower.
Mm moving magnet cartridges are designed to play into 47k ohms or higher input impedance.
Fortunately magnetic cartridges look quite different in that they don t flip over to play 78 s.
Vintage audio equipment may need the ceramic cartridge s higher voltage output.
And some players started using magnetic cartridges in the 1960 s.
I recently obtained two ceramic.
Magnetic cartridges cannot be used or have a much shorter lifespan in damp climes as condensation can erode the metal parts of the pickup.

The last ceramic cartridge i had in my system was back in the sixties.
My design concept was to produce a circuit that would be compatible with the widest range of cartridges using the most commonly available and lowest.
It can run from a battery supply of 9v.
These two circuits have been requested for a violin pickup but could equally well suit a ceramic or crystal pickup.

Home preamplifier and tone preamp stage for ceramic phono cartridge.
Ceramic cartridges of capacitance 800 pf to 12 000 pf with output voltages up to 900 mv can be connected making it a very versatile circuit for a large range of cartridges currently available.
The type cartridge between it and my amplifier input which at the time was the high impedance grid circuit iirc of a 6j5 audio triode.
