Johnny,
Did Shure shut that JAWN down Son?

LOL! Maybe, but here's the Dropbox link...

My guess is you weren't using the hd cam on that 3k macbook pro right? Why do you always have the nighttime x vaseline filter on your cam?

Did you try that record with the shure 447 too?
Been using the 447 for the last few years, but just took my ortofons out of retirement...

lol @ nighttime x vaseline filter.....

Man, that's two different cameras too...

I don't have an M477.

Right, my experience with the 447 is that they actually skip even less than ortofons.
However, I only have blue, black and q-bert ortofons, no panks, all on concorde shells,
while my 447's are on regular tech headshells.

For SDJ/SSL, the q-berts really track well, but they aint cheap...

Cool, post up a warpy record and let's see how good they track!

Sadly, mosty of my records, including warped ones, are in storage these days.
I mostly only have my serato vinyl in my appartment. If/when I get to the storage,
I'll see if I can pull a few.

I've use both IMHO, the "PANK" holds the groove better than the 44-7


i can make the 44-7 skip by being supper aggressive the "PANKS" rarely skips even when i try to make it skip with supper heavy hands

Ortofons chew up your vinyl records, but are definitely less skip resistant because you can add an enormous amount of weight and the stylus is smaller. Ive had the black, silver and now own the qbert Ortofons which are the most skip resistant of the entire Ortofon line. The the stylus cartridge head is angled up unlike all the others. The 44-7s are equal in skip resistance and tracking if the records are good and the table surface isnt wobbly. Who wants to play warped records on shaky tables? Not me! Still I see a ton of youtube DJs where the tables/camera are shaking and for them Ortofons are definitely best. The 44-7 stylus is longer and floats freely up and down, they track wonderfully. I have no problem with skipping however if I go to a gig and the table is wobbling then Im using the Ortonfons.

that might very well be true, but 447 are hella easy to bend because the stylus is so open and exposed.

panks & blues 4 the win

Yep, as I also said, I never onwned Panks, only regular black, blue and q-bert, all on concorde, no headshell mounts. As the 447 have longer suspension travel, they've hold up well for heavily warped records. For scratching, guess you're right, the q-berts/panks probably hold better on to the grove, as they are less bouncy, and can take a lot of weight.

Very true!
