Have you tried adjusting the VTA and VTF? The two cartridges, though the same brand, may not necessarily have the exact same set up.
Benz Micro and background noise
Hi guys.
Pleased to read you.
I´ve got two carts: Benz Micro Ref 3 and Benz Micro LP (non LP-S) and the answer is following:
More expensive cart means more background noise? My Ref 3 sounds very, very well, but LP is better, more detailed, warm,...I love this cart. You can stand hours&hours and it doesn´t produce fatigue in your ears.
But...always exits "BUT": when I put the LP cart in my SME arm I can heard more background noise in some vinyls wich it´s impossible to heard with Ref 3. All vinyls are in very good condition: cleaned with a machine and most of them are news or japanese pressing.
Other Benz LP users says that LP is a one of the most noiseless cart that they ever heard. What´s the problem then? Probably suspension is bad and cart cannot track well? I see dust in coils:( Body of Benz´s hasn´t cover like other carts.
Somebody who has experience like me?
Thanks in advance,
L.
