A stunning cartridge at this price point.
I have this on my VPI Scout feeding a Simaudio Moon 110LP. My previous two cartridges were moving coils at 2x+ the price of this cartridge. I don't think my Scout has ever sounded better. I am amazed. I will never be willing to spend $5K or more for a LOMC cartridge so I will never know how those sound. I can't imagine it getting that much better. I was also an Ortofon fan for a long time because my last AT cartridge (ATML150) was kind of a mixed bag that I never really fell in love with this. This one is a different kettle of fish altogether. Solid bass foundation underneath an open and beautiful midrange topped with a clean and clear top end that never sounds over emphasized or harsh. If you like small group jazz bands and jazz vocalists, put this on your tonearm, you may never take it off.
