I'm actually in the process of dumping an Akiva for another cartridge. Too many problems with the Akiva. It tracks very poorly, and it is super-fussy about VTA to the point where I feel like I have to adjust it for each and every record.
Not worth it in my book when there are other cartridges that are in the same price range or even cheaper that perform better.
