Raos cartridge


Anyone heard about the Raos cartridge from Taiwan?

No. But I'm pretty sure you just joined up so you could tell us about it. ;-)
Yes, I have the MC5B in my system. Initial impression is extremely open mid-range, as good or maybe better than my Koetsu. Not fully run in yet though.
One of my friend from Taiwan recommended Raos cartridge highly. I can't find any information or dealer in the US (except an Audiogon ad selling MC5B by someone). Please post any info you have, preferably in English. Thx.
Well, I could not help but notice that Nicecupoftea, much like Music_lovers, just registered on Audiogon, and this is his first post as well. Hmmmm.....

Interesting, huh?

What do you think Dan_ed? You gonna run right out and buy one to try it out?
;-)

PS As a bit of advice to music_lovers, perhaps it might make sense, if you are trying to start up a buzz about your product, to offer a couple of these cartridges for a free trial to some of the better known analog aficionados on this site, (Rauliruegas, AlbertPorter and Dougdeacon come immediately to mind), and let them review them. (And of course you could offer them up to the professional reviewers, although I prefer to read what the audiophiles here on Audiogon and Audio Asylum have to say, as they are not getting paid for their reviews.).
My two cents worth anyway.
