Ortofon MC A90 cartridge


I have had this cartridge for just over a month now and WOW.

The A90 IMO is as pure a cartridge that I have ever heard.

If you like your system you will absolutely luv this cartridge.

Thanks Mike L for giving me the tip - revealing and musical- absolutely. ruthless - never

Anyone else got one?

cheers

Mike,
you are quite right, the A 90 gets very close to the Goldfinger v2. I am playing both and I am surprised about the qualities of the Ortofon. Straight from the start a brilliant sound. How many will be manufactured - 500 ?. I have No 125. I am not in sales nor in connection with Ortofon, despite the fact that I am running lots of SPUs.
But whoever doubts about this cartridge he may regret some time.
This is all exciting news based on the information provided by trusted listeners. I listened to the A-90 at Mike Levine's place and it all sounded great even though it is hard to discern the impact of the cartridge alone in the presence of all ultra high-end gear. But I trust Mike's words.

I haven't even opened my box yet and hence do not know the number, as I am waiting for a new arm which I have decided what to go for. Looking forward to listening to my setup and reporting my findings here.
By the way Thuchan, you mentioned earlier (I presume before listening to the A-90) that you liked the ZYX Universe very much. How does the A-90 compare to the Universe? I guess they do sound different but which one would you prefer?
Gallant_diva, I will give the A90 some more 20 hours for a fair competition, will come back to you - promise!
