Synergy

Mr Carr and I have already discussed the problem and come to a resolution.

Many cartridges come with cantilevers leaning to one side or another which is why you always set offset by the cantilever and not the cartridge body.

my motivation for the reference to Mr. Carr was you left his reputation hanging for a bit there….

And in any dealings i have had w him have been beyond reproach 

@rauliruegas ,

Sometime, a lot of times reality changes. Sometimes your mind changes. My mind changes all the time and in it's own little world it is entitled to do so. I'm sorry if you do not agree with my meanderings. 

@mulveling From experiences had to date, I have found that a Cartridge transforms in its capabilities as it leaves the £1500 - £2Kish cost and is a Cart' coming in at the High £2K's the £4K+ region.

There is a range of Cart's that are very likeable and even much admired in the lower price range. 

The Upper price range, is where I experience most Cart's in use today.

It is within this price range that experiences have left me with the impression, Cart's of this Value Transcend in performance and impression able to be made.

It is this impact of impression made, that makes the individual want to be broadening the range of impressions that have proven so attractive. I certainly don't see the desire to experience differing models and designs as an infliction being expressed by a compulsive consumer. Most experiences had that have been extremely attractive are on both owned and unowned Cart's.

My experiences have been that a Cart' that can make a extremely good impression, when coupled to a certain TA > TT, can repeat this impression made in multiple systems, and used through a variety of Phonostages.

As long as a Cart' has the voicing that has the fundamental attraction to a particular user, they are for me looking like a safe bet to recreate this trait in all set ups to be used.  

Hence, my interest in the Hana Umami Blue, does it really offer all that is stated to date for such reasonable monies. Then there is also the cockiness/confidence the owned system will most likely give a Cart' increased potential to improve performance, over some of the systems used giving the favourable reviews.
