I personally love the design benefits and sound of the Transfiguration line up.I've owned two versions of the Temper and also had the Orpheus.
The orpheus was my favorite,if I had to pick one cartridge....but...
I've owned many other superb designs from Koetsu to others,and I've heard superb results from additional mfgrs in "many" friends' set-ups....so...
I really think this subject is a "moving target"!
Yup,we'd been asked for our favorite cartridge,but why not take it a bit further and consider that the particular system will impact this as well?
Anyway,cartridges are wondeful ways to flavor one's system(not necessarily "color" it,but influence it to a degree).....This is a golden age of this kind of transducer design....Many folks are lucky to have more than one.
Regards to all
