Best Cartridge for Kuzma Airline

Thanks. I tried a few cartridges in the meantime and in my opinion, the best are max. 10gr. Heavier ones are no problem, they work fine, but when I compare those with my Phantom or DaVinci, I think, heavy cartridges are better for heavy Arms.
A sensational Match is the UNiverse, Zyx 100 and the Lyra Skala. The Skala performs well in normal Arms but in the AirLine there is a transmission to something totally different. Very, very good here. A friend with the same Arm uses a Shelter 90x and is very happy with it, he says, it's also good.

Hi,
Any new recommendations?
I have a Kuzma Stabi Ref. with Airline and use it for some months with a Lyra Atlas. It is very fine, fast, very good details, attack. Maybe not the best low level mass and "big sound", but I like it.
On the other hand, I should say that I just tried the Atlas in this system.
In the past I had DV XV-1s, Lyra Kleos, but just for short period in this setup.
The phono stage is a Jeff Rowland Cadence or a Klyne 7.

Any other cartridge suggestions?
Maybe comparisons for the Atlas (or other cartridges) with Airline and 4Point tonearms on the Stabi Reference?
Thanks, Balazs

hi

I have a Kuzma 4pt with a ref XL, single motor. I have used - in this order- benzLp ebony, colibri, airtight PC3, shelter harmony and now Atlas.
I would avoid the benz and colibri. All the others are excellent. My most recent cart (atlas) is superior to all the others - fast, powerful, wide stage, depth and detail, very good bass definition. Never heard such convincing piano reproduction. The shelter is also very fine sounding.

The colibri (in my system)is rather lean sounding, gives very good spatial information and is nicely detailed but can emphasise sibilance especially.
with female vocal.

the benz sounds rather dull compared to all the others.

Kuzma CAR-50. Magic when set up carefully.

Hi, Breezer: I contributed to this thread in its original incarnation, and at the
time, used a Lyra Titan i (the Atlas was not available then). I also used an
Airtight and currently run the Airtight Supreme, which I like. You may want to
look at Albert Porter's thread where he compares the Atlas and Airtight,
albeit on SME arms, but still a good explanation of the differences in the
sound of the cartridges.
I still like the Airline after all these years- and am now in the process of
replacing the air compressor with an oversized one to reduce duty cycles.
FWIW, I owned the Kuzma Reference table before I bought the XL- the
Reference was great, very easy to set up and no problems with isolation,
given its design.

Dctom- I see that you replaced your XL with the new model employing the
DC motor. I haven't seen much about this new model- happened on it
recently when I went to the Kuzma website. Care to explain the differences,
either here or on your own page? (sorry if you did that and I missed it).
best to all,
