Maxgain, I used this cartridge for just enough hours to break it in and than sold due to the desire of more live music from my vinyls.
Maybe I did not provide enough experimentation with it in terms of VTA but the only differences I heard is at extreams of my Michell VTA for Rega arm.
I played with an antiskate which gave me more 3D and tightness applying just minimal for the best results.
I have to admit that mounting and tuning-up with higher-end cartridges is even more complicated since they "feel" any missalignement in setup much more.
I spend pretty large amount of time properly setting up Lyra Helikon cartridge.
