You and me both Kevin. I think I'll just have to pretend I haven't seen this. For anyone interested, this is a beautiful cartridge. ------------- Peter Satisfied user of: Revelation M, PSU1-Enigma, Solo SRGII and lots of CuSat50 |

A couple of questions, if I may. Roughly how many hours are on this? How does it compare to the XX-2 you had before? ------------- Kevin European loan coordinator, based near Toulouse, France.

Hi Kevin It's a huge improvement on the XX=2, I think if you can find any reviews they will state that. I find it very difficult to describe things in hi fi terms but it is way more open and revealing of details without becoming in the least clinical or sterile. Lots of body and smooth top end and just lets the music sound more real and engaging. I really don't know the hours that it has logged and I think it was still performing at or near it's best. I upgraded because I had a small inheritance and that was just enough money to buy a new cartridge. I can send you a (very poor) photo of the stylus if you like ------------- Derek |

Hello chaps No takers for my cartridge is forcing a price reduction  Does £900 (plus shipping) (and only to forum members at that price) push any of you tempted people over the line? I hope so ------------- Derek |
