but you are right since they are talking here on 10 and not 100.
so what you are saying is that when the cartridge producer write 10/100 its realy much higher in terms of European?
i know about the 0.2 mv of the AT-ART9XA
i am thinking about the AT-ART9XI but haven't finally decided yet

@stone1 It's just the Japanese standard of presenting the same characteristic which is measured at a different frequency (100 Hz), instead of the standard unsed in the rest of the world (which is usually at 10 Hz). You just need to take these values with a pinch of salt, in reality you won't know until you test it out with a test record for resonance frequency. 

The Audio Technica, the Hana and the Lyra will all work well from that perspective with your arm. Don't need to focus too much on this factor, the focus should be on whether it's the sound reproduction you're looking for. Ideally with a trusted dealer. What cartridge are you running right now?

I wouldn't buy either of those cartridges.

For similar money I would recommend the Van den Hul MC One or Van den Hul DDT. Alternately the Dynavector XX1 is also very good.

Much more refined than either the Hana or ART.

dover about the Van den Hul MC One i read a mixed review .
a better on the DDT.
cant find any review for the  XX1, think it's discontinued .
