Paua mkII
I'm the guy with the haunted ZYX R100. I just got my new Paua II yesterday, and I want to thank you. You took care of me better than I deserved. This is the best cartridge I've ever owned, or even heard...anywhere. Zero sibilance, and absolutely effortless sound (just for starters). You already know this, I'm sure : >. I'm getting more out of my old VPI HW19 Jr. than I thought it had to give. I can tell this is heirloom quality, and I'm totally sold on the fixed coil idea. This is the sort of quality I hope for when buying American. I've already told anyone who will listen that they'd be a fool not to consider one of your cartridges. I'm sure I'll be contacting you about a rebuild someday. I intend to wear this thing out!
Sincerely,
Bruce Kasprzyk
"The Soundsmith Carmen's ultra-low-mass MI assembly plays with more agility, is more naturally detailed, and sounds less stressed than any MC I'm aware of. Its treble is not dull or rolled off—it's just the most authentic treble I've experienced from a phonographic transducer."
