Ordered my Accession MM today

I went from the SE2 to the Reflex M and I share the same feeling as you in that I think SE2 should not be ignored too and If I did not have the funds for the Reflex M I would still be happy with the SE2 today. I also took advantage of the loan system and I am now a owner of the Lautus cables. I also like the fact I'm buying British made which is vary hard to do now a days in anything let alone HiFi, As most things are designed here and then made else where because it's cheaper, well if Graham Slee can do it why can't others do it ???.  

My cart is a HOMC. A very good HOMC, but HO all the same. there are a couple of things that are niggling me.

1 as it a HOMC as it really a fit with the Accession MM?

2 Is the  Sumiko BB HO pretty much on par with the LOMC?

3 Do I wait until in I need a new MC, and then buy a LOMC cart and then buy an Accession?

4 I wonder how the Reflex sounds? 

What I do have to say is thank you so much for the Company for the chance to bed the stage into my system for the last two weeks. I doff my cap.....and secondly, yes the Accession is a great stage, however it also shows that the Era Gold V really is still a great stage that should not be ignored at that price.

I've noticed a few comments here and elsewhere (they're in the minority, but there's been enough to give me pause for thought) from people who either don't notice a justifiable improvement in the Accession over the Reflex or even prefer what the reflex does.

Nothing strange about that, we all like what we like. I do wonder though whether possibly some other component in their hi-fi meant a difference wasn't appreciable.
