@rwanda have heard several tines now 2 different MSL cartridges, just wonderful. But if you are looking for more of a "organic sound" I'd be looking at a Koetsu cartridge. Just a thought
Second MC Cartridge Choice.....Tokyo
So I am looking for a second (no 3rd) cartridge for my system....which is comprised of a Kuzma Stabi S12 w/12" 313 arm......currently running the Airtight PC-7 on it.
My other table is a Luxman PD 151 with an MM cartridge (Sumiko Amethyst) and I want to get an MC for it as well. I was thinking along the lines of the inro MSL but then wondered if maybe I would be better off with Audio Technica Art OC9a or OC9i?
Also wondered if anyone has heard the new Hana Blue Umami?
I am going to Tokyo for an extended work trip and hoped I could find something there at an advantageous price. I am open to other suggestions.
Almost exclusively listen to jazz....lots of horns and such.
I use a Modwright PH 9.0 fed into Dennis Had tube gear and sometimes switch out to a 2a3 FI-X. While I love detail it is an organic sound I am after.....with a liquid mid-range.
thanks for any thoughts.
