Thanks John,
I may PM Rkay5 latter today. Did a search on other forum , not much out there but from what I've read sounds like my kind of thing.

Hi rosie.

He's most prolific on the crossovernetwork, Vinyl engine and Audiokarma forums.

I have one.

It's an amazing cartridge and competes in the 2k category in my opinion. Another forum owner, on hearing mine, declared that it would retail at £2.5k if made by one of the smaller manufacturers.

It is an unusual cartridge though as it tracks at 1.3g or under so definitely worth checking tonearm compatibility. It has a ruler flat response so it can appear "dull" on first listening but it has an ability to dredge detail from the groove like very few others.

Those who consider it a modified DL304 are profoundly wrong. It has a much finer diamond and different coils.

Thanks Gents

I hope that it's got more body than the 304 which I find nice but lacking in heft.
