I must admit the LP Gear option was cheaper and that I may later go down the Jico SAS route like you have Ifor.

That said I am pretty happy with my V series cartridge with Shibata stylus. Right now I am listening to a Julian Bream album from the 1960's and it sounds pretty good. So did the albums I played yesterday.

I'm enjoying my SL-7 and LP Gear cartridge a lot. Very good sound through all the records I've played and it's great to hear inner tracks without any distortion.

To suit my tastes the Accession M was very helpful. I went for 0pF added capacitance and the US eq option that cuts the treble slightly.

I just made a polarity inverting power lead for the 12 volt input of my SL-7. Clearly that allows me to use s standard + tip PSU with the SL-7 so I set my SL1210 supply on 12V.

As expected the music sounds the same. i will leave the SL-7 on and see whether it gets warm. Later I will see if there is any difference in the noise floor.
