Koetsu Rosewood Vs Rosewood Signature Vs HANA UMAMI RED advice please

Dear @terry9  : Of course that no offense at all.  Issue is that the OP is very especial in some ways and he asked in specific for the KRS  and 4K maximum as his budget and the Platinum is up to around 60% of that budget limit.

That's all nothing more.

Dear friends :  Both Etsuro cartridges that the OP bougth ( Gold/Bordeaux. ) from the distributor at a discount price of the KRS ( even at its regular price. ) have a reatil price of 30K !!!!!!!!!! where the retail price of the TT he bougth with that distributor has a retail price of only 16K.

I don't know what owners of the Etsuro Gold as @mikelavigne could comment about that " laughing " price.

Of course that the OP or any one else can't let pass that " incredible " bargain of the century.

I wish to have that luck and the question is that the OP or the distributor or Etsuro could explain that so low price.

@rauliruegas, I think you did not understand what I said. I have 2 houses, one in the USA and one in Spain.
In Spain I have a few tables with a few tonearms. One of those tonearms, has had a Etsuro Gold for about a year, maybe less.

The setup I am putting together is for the house in the USA, for when for about a week or 2 every month or 2.

For the USA I bought a simple setup 3 tonearms, 2 Kuzmas 4point, and SAT CF1 12", and 2 cartridges:

• Koetsu Signature in the Kuzma
  
• Etsuro Erushi Bordeaux in the SAT

I am bringing one of my MONO cartridges for the 2nd Kuzma.

A discount on 2 ~$5k+ when you spend the amount of $ I spent at this dealer with all kinds of HiFi gear, I think the dealer can afford selling them to me at a great price.

To be frank rauliruegas, it is extremely tiring to keep being nice to you, to continue explaining and justifying my decisions, all the while you are trying to make me look like an idiot because I don’t buy what you want me to buy.

I only explain what I do with my $ and how I spend it t my family and friends, as I love to include them on everything I do and they want to participate.
You, rauliruegas, are neither a friend or family.

Thus, rauliruegas, I am done explaining, justifying, or reading your posts. I wish there was an ignore function because no matter how much knowledge you have it is not worth the aggravation.

Cheers rauliruegas :)

Once in while a great opportunity is presented for an acquisition to be purchased at a price that is not the usual one seen.
When an individual gets their chance and follows through with it to be realised, it would be a kinder approach to applaud them on their good luck.

Dear @astolfor : It is obvious that if I don't understand what you posted then my posts will be just with several mistakes but NO in no single way my attitude is that try that you look as an idiot this is a total misunderstood for you because I have a lot of respect for any human been.

I was who told you for the first time that it's your money. Maybe the problem with my misunderstood is that you did not write from the start the whole  astolfor systems  " scenarios "/stages but as always with every one that ask something interesting in this forum my attitude is always to help him it does not matters that many times my posts just does not looks that way.

You don't have to have bad feelings vs me, I certainly have not about you.
