I had the Jade in 3 different arms. Suffice it to say it is a very low compliance cartridge. You have not heard a Jade until you hear it in a high mass (over 28 gm) arm. This brings the bass and treble into focus and gets the Resonant frequency outside of the audio band and actually to an ideal 11 Hz (using the HF test lp). In my system it performed wonderfully in an Ikeda 407. A high mass 12 inch arm. I would suggest any of the variants is ideal. You can also add mass to the arm as suggested.

Hi all
I have the above combo on my Kuzma Stabi Reference. To me, the combo sounds great; and so would like to hear from others who has the same combo, and what their opinion is on this combo.
Secondly, would also like some tips on how to fine-tune the installation of the Koetsu using Triplanar's many features
Looking forward to your opinions and help
Cheers ... Peter
