Ortofon Cadenza Black Vs A90

Thanks for the info Peter. That's confirmed what I've read in a couple of reviews. 
Which cartridges do you like as much as the A90?

I'm using a Windfield which is (I think) a suped up Black......think it quite extraordinary...especially how its priced.  1000 ohms opens it up...very even and colorless.

In the same price category I'd suggest looking at a Lyra Etna, its a little richer sounding than the Ortofon A90, The Etna presents a more dense and robust soundstage.

Other options are the ZYX, I've had three of them The Universe 2 most recently, the Diamond, and a Airy 3 a while back.  The ZYX are very vivid sounding cartridges.


Best of Luck

Thanks Peter.
What's your view on the Lyra Skala? 

Have never tried one, but Lyra makes fantastic cartridges, used a Delos at a show a few years back, thought it was a excellent cartridge.  

I have in my own system an Atlas and an Etna.

Good Listening
