Dear all,
   All of the positive Hana cartridge talk has made me want to try one out. I’m a fan of Shiabata tips so I’m thinking about the SL and SH models. My question is, being an owner of a Reflex M and an Elevator EXP, should I go for the high or low output model? Does anyone think there’ll be a significant difference? Is there value in the removal of one box in the chain if I don’t need to use the EXP? On the other hand, I’ve read that the low output version is superior, but not having heard them myself (nearest dealer 175km away) I have no way of knowing if that’s accurate or just low output bias.
Any help?
Cheers,
Mick.

I went for the SL version and it is very good.

I have the SH, and I'm very pleased with what it does :)

Thanks everyone. I’ve just hit holidays and I’ll be making a trip to go hear them if I can find a dealer who has them set up.
Mick.
