Dynavector XX-2


Anyone have or heard this Cart?.
How close does it come to the DRT XV-1S?.
I am waiting for my Voyd TT, Helius Omega and XX-2 to be set up by Tom Totay and I have an all Audio Note system.

I have an XX-2 and rate it very highly. I haven't heard a Universe yet but the XX-2 easily bests an Airy 3, especially in dynamics and palpability - the XX-2 just sound more like real people playing instruments.

I know someone who has set up both an XX-2 and a XV-1S on his Triplanar and says they are very close - close enough to question whether the extra expense is necessary.

Different isn't always better just because it costs more!
Congratulations Kentamcolin, the XX-2 is a very enjoyable cartridge and it does bring out the best in any recording.
