“I’m blown away!”
“Got this for my clearaudio concept. I’m amazed at the quality of this thing and it’s not had 40 hour break-in yet! Surface noise has totally gone, bass, mids and treble totally natural sounding. I’m hearing sounds I never did before cause surface noise hid them. It’s like I’ve a whole new system! Only problem I had was magnets so strong I can’t use my digital scales to set tracking force so had to get a ortofon plastic gauge. Any digital scales that’ll work with this cart? Mine goes – as cart gets near scales.”
