A few days ago I successfully installed the Hercules board into the external MOSE unit and connected it to the LP12; it was quite easy, a piece of cake, and did not take too much time. I have listened to the outer power supply since, I am very impressed with the improvements that it has brought when compared the Hercules within the turntable previously, especially in terms of sound stage, clarity, refinement and bass resolution. I am now experimenting with different power cords at the moment to try and see the impacts to its performance.
I am also planning and looking forward to comparing the Lingo and the MOSE/Hercules as soon as I could find two identical cartridges for a fair battle. So far, in my experience with the Hercules, Lingo and the Origin Live DC motor, I think that they all have their own individual merits. Which one is better? It depends on one’s personal taste and preference and there is probably no definite answer to it, I assume. But for the money and performance, the Hercules is a best buy, highly recommended!
