The Palladian-A step beyond

The new cartridge from Acoustical Systems may finally be the LOMC to fully realise the theoretical advantages of the genus.
And convince those long-suffering audiophiles to whom the 'modern' MC presentation has been anathema to 'live sound'....that the realism of vintage LOMCs like the SPUs and FR-7 series has finally been recaptured 👀

Dear Thuchan, Who would believe in the ''modesty'' of Rockefellers?

Would you believe that they know ''exactely'' what they own?

Anyway my question is pretty exact. I am very fond of my FR-7fz

and also bought Ikeda 9c . I am in love with both but you know how

we are: very curious. So I am curious about Ikeda 9Rex and 9R.

I can't afford both but, I hope, I can afford one of them. I am not

interested in jazz so your ''job'' should be very easy. Which one

for the classical music?

Dear Nandric,

I do not listen to classical music. I am sorry that I can't help you on that. The FR and Ikeda carts are good. Instead of going for another Ikeda I would go for the Palladian or the ART 1000.

Dear Thuchan, Raul introduced all kinds of ''levels'' but with obvious

preference for ''ignorance''-and ''distortion levels''. Your advice to

''go for Palladian or the ART 1000'' caused me to introduce ''financial

level''.  My question ''either Ikeda 9 Rex or R'' was caused by my

''financial level''. I wrote :'' I can't afford both''.

Hi Folkfreak,
we got another Titan-tonearm, the Axiom 12 Titan Grand Complication. I reported about it on my site. And, yes Titan got some listenable advantages.
