Hey @terry9 - I have not heard the Rosewood platinum (and you have the full diamond cantilever no less) but I was led to understand that this cartridge got you a lot of what the more expensive Koetsus offered. For me, I won’t declare it an absolute in any sense, but the stone bodies compensated for weaknesses elsewhere in my system so I’m now at a point where the system is the best I've had it since I put the core components together in 2006-7. I fire it up and enjoy the sound. So many great records out there, so little time....
Koetsu Rosewood Vs Rosewood Signature Vs HANA UMAMI RED advice please
I ended up buying an Acoustic Signature Typhoon, with a 11" Kuzma 4Point. Now the question is which cartridge I get.
I have a Hana E and M in my current VPI and really like them, but I looking forward to test something else. I like detail without much in your face(?), soundstage and some hint of warmth.
I saved $4K for a cartridge and I am getting 25% off on any cartridge I want, and do not need to spend the $4k.
I am open to other brands, except Sound Smith which I had in my Bergmann Galder and did not like at all.
My system for the Typhoon is composed of
Tannoy Kensington
Pathos Heritage, or Primaluna 300
Manley Labs Steelhead
all powered with a PS powerplant.
Thank you
