Kiseki Purpleheart

Well a little semi-closure here is in order. I sent the PH cartridge back to Upscale Audio for evaluation and since it has been determined to be defective and is under warranty, I get to pick out a replacement. (Yippie-Ki-Yea!) In all honesty their customer service team has been very helpful and responsive. Cartridges do go bad from time to time I guess, sheet happens. So to keep this short, I am faced with a few choices around the same price range. A little feedback here would be greatly appreciated.

1. Another Purple Heart

2. Sumiko Celeb 40

3. Lyra Kleos

4. ClearAudio Concerto

Thanks, Starwarrior 

Tough choice between kleos and another ph, I have both and would lean very slightly to ph.  But you really need both!

I replaced my Allarerts MC1B with Lyra Kleos. I am happy with change. The Allaerts had a lot of mileage on it. Nice detail and openess.
