Koetsu Onyx Platinum or Ortofon Mc Anna

Hi there ! I already have in hand a two sealed Cart mentioned above which was traded in by a seller for my old gears. I dont want to open both carts for reasons i have to sell the other one. The question is what is the best cart to keep & will match my system ? My System : Dynaudio temptation , Pass Labs XA 100.5 , MF Primo preamp , Avid Pulsare Phonostage , Oracle Delphi VI w SME V Tonearm , Cardas GR Interconnects , Transparent Reference Speaker Cable , Cary 303t CDP. Room Size 5.0 x 6.0 mts. YOUR COMMENTS & INFO ARE ALL GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I have not heard the Ortofon Anna but assume it's sound is an "improved" Ortofon A90.

If so, those two cartridges are so far apart in sound it may not be possible for anyone to suggest what's best.

The fact you have Ortofon A90 (you mentioned in another thread) suggests to me that the Anna would more likely please you.

I suggest you give both a listen and decide for yourself. This could be the only time in your life when you have the opportunity to compare these two.
