what are you trying to improve about how your system sounds?
vpi classic
First hello everyone ,I've been away awhile .
I'm interested in upgrading my cartridge a Benz micro mc, my system is a moderate system by gon standard.
VPI classic jmw memorial arm ,Acoustic Zen adagios, Sunfire subs ,Nu Vista integrated, Musical Fidelity phono amp mc or mc with multiple mc settings . Acoustic Zen cables and speaker cables in a acoustically treated dedicated room (16'x24' x10') .with more digital gear, but this is my analog section.
I am willing to spend up to say $1,500 ,but much to many here's discomfort I would spend up to say grand on a used cartridge from a solid gon member . I know so many here swap them like tic tacs . I know the routine of fears with buying used , that said I have made some great scores here. I'm looking for weight compatabilty ,sound and overall performance for the money.
Thank you all
Ray

jjss49I would like more across the board in my analog sound ,my Benz is getting old . my digital setup out performs it ,obviously its punchy and digital but I never felt it was were i wanted it in general |
big_greg I see the add from kron for 1300.00 I am not familiar with this cartridge ? impressions ? are you in usa and what was your shipping time and experience ? |
you saying nothing about tonality or shifts in the character of the sound you seek obvious answer is move up the benz micro line, gliders rubies and gull wing are just superb but you just want to randomly try something different, here are two very highly regarded units that will work fine with the jmw metal arm https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649650665-van-den-hul-frog/ https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649612573-ortofon-jubille-almost-new-top-of-their-line/ |
