Any thoughts on the Avid Acutus?

Would be replacing Oracle Delphi V, Triplanar IV, Koetsu Rosewood Signature Platinum with the Avid, Triplanar VI, Benz Micro LP Ebony. My ears tell me I'd be nicely enhancing my former rig's sound with a similar but more dynamic sonic signature. Or is this an expensive lateral move?

Dear Khrys: The all metal Acutus design is a better TT than your Oracle and the VI is a better tonearm than your four: in this two subjects you are winning, no question about.

Now, before you change the whole " things ", try to hear the KRSP on the Acutus. I own both cartridges and they have different music presentation: you have to hear both on your system and after that to take a decision.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Dear Khrys: Yes, you are right about those cartridges sound. Btw, the Parnassus likes the SME tonearms.

I think that you will like the Acutus KRSP sound.

Regards and enjoy the music.
