The Cadenza Blue was an upgrade from the AudioTechnica ART9. I targeted it for its dynamics and it definitely delivered.
It has similar tonal balance to the ART9 which is a complement. The Blue sounds on the warmer side of neutral but still smooth and clear sounding with huge bass. Noticeably warmer and smoother vs. a 2M Black for example. Soundstage is bigger and bolder than with the ART9, a very big complement.
The only negative is that the sound deteriorated at 1300 hours or so. Some may not find issue with that.
Current cartridge is a Lyra Delos and it is a noticeable upgrade from the Cadenza Blue.
