Have no experience with the Hana but I would take a look at the Charisma Signature One. Incredibly balanced and musical performer that will surprise you.
Cartridge upgrade????
Ok so finally I am at a good place with my Kuzma Stab S-12 using a wonderful Hana SL cartridge fed into Bent Audi Sut to Sutherland PHd3...into my amplifier. I think it really sounds good but got an itch to maybe upgrade to a higher end MC cartridge.
I was considering the Air-Tight PC 7 but not really sure if it is worth it to spend all the $$, or maybe an Ortofon Cadenza or????
Anyone have experience moving up from the Hana SL, and if so may I ask to what? No need to do it in a hurry but thinking that maybe this would be a good path, and mostly I am listening to jazz...lots of horns and small trios.
thank you all in advance....

All above are some good suggestions but I might be thinking about selling the Stabi S and moving up to the Stabi R. Keeping your Kuzma arm. (Although you didn't mention which arm I'm assuming it's a matching Kuzma). I've heard the Stabi S and it's a wonderful table BUT the Stabi R is in another league IMHO. Just my thoughts. |
@rwanda , which arm are you using? The PC 7 was discontinued. The My Sonic Eminent EX is a bit more expensive but worth it. The Lyra Delos is a little less but IMHO a better cartridge than the PC 7 or even better is the Kleos. The PC 7 was for a larger arm. These cartridges work best in a medium mass arm. The Kuzma 4 Point 9 would be perfect. |
