Synergy

Some months ago I upgraded my analog system extensively. My salesman recommended the Hana ML cartridge which I know is very highly thought of. I had been using the Clearaudio Virtuoso cartridge which I accidentally destroyed, I sent the Virtuoso out to be retipped by SoundSmith and when I got it back tried to sell it on Audiogon and eBay. I couldn’t give it away at a ridiculous low price so I kept it. I used the Hana in my new system for months and was relatively happy until I realized I wasn’t getting great sound compared to my digital side.
So I got the bright idea of switching back to the Clearaudio Virtuoso. Voila, the system came to life after break in like never before. 
Just shows how components are synergy related.

Mr Carr and I have already discussed the problem and come to a resolution.

Many cartridges come with cantilevers leaning to one side or another which is why you always set offset by the cantilever and not the cartridge body.

my motivation for the reference to Mr. Carr was you left his reputation hanging for a bit there….

@rauliruegas ,

Sometime, a lot of times reality changes. Sometimes your mind changes. My mind changes all the time and in it's own little world it is entitled to do so. I'm sorry if you do not agree with my meanderings.
