Yep indeed. All have sounded great. But that has been a favorite for many years.

I think this is the (a) cart combo the Hagerman needed to shine. Funny, after listening more, I thought 64db gain may be a bit too much of a good thing, although incredibly full in sound and lively, was on the ‘razors edge’, and so was going back and forth between 60 and 64 db. 60 being a lot more like the Trumpet and my hi Zephyr.

Then I remembered I had taken the dampers off my AX7’s a couple weeks ago. Put them back on, and it was like everything smoothed out, and still get the full lively presentation of the music. Wowzers. 64db is now just fine and dandy. The little things.
Finally messing w loading….

Great song selection, so-so overall quality. Listenable, but not amazing. Nice wine and chill record.
