Anyone have experience to share regarding the Ortofon Cadenza Bronze MC cartridge?
I've been very happy with the Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge I use on my Technics SL1210G turntable, enjoying a lot of jazz and classical music. Obviously I've heard many times that a Moving Coil cartridge can reveal more detail so I've been thinking of upgrading to the Orotofon Cadenza MC Bronze. However, Orotofon acknowledges the cartridge is "tuned to be warm." How is this done and how does it affect music playback (i.e. rolling off treble, attenuating bass, etc.)? Anyone have experience with this cartridge they can share with me?
I own both the Cadenza Bronze and Black and I like the Bronze quite a bit better. But the cartridge I use now is Andy Kim's modified Denon DL-103 cartridge. In my system it outperforms all the Ortofon, Audio Technica, and Koetsu cartridges I own and it is only $600ish. Save yourself a couple of thousand dollars and get it instead. https://trackingangle.com/equipment/needle-clinics-denon-103-phono-cartridge
