Listened to the MCBee cartridge today on a SOTA Jewel table. Arm was Sota S300, phono stage Simaudio as well as 47Labs Shigaraki. Amplification by Sim and Edge, speakers PMC (cant remember model but they were big!). Cartridge in this set up was really good. Clear with plenty of PRaT. Sounded best with Shigaraki phono stage, but due an annoying ground loop problem with the Shigaraki the Sim was a good competitor. This set-up was much better than a Clearaudio Solution, Denon DL103r with same phono stages. So whilst I didnt swap out the cartridges, the MCBee was impressive on its own.
47 Labs Mc Bee MC
Anyone using the McBee MC cart..what are your impressions? The one and only review I could find suggests Its smooth sounding, but a bit rolled off in the highs and seems to lack some life overall, suggesting a more "lively" table to use with this MC... not very expensive, but at $1200 US. not all that inexpensive to buy without hearing or at least some feedback on how it sound and on what tables...
Thanks.
Thanks.
