Does anyone know anything about these.  They are supposed to be GREAT Value.  I find no reviews and no web site.

    Ummmm... Nine months with no contact from the people at Aidas is not just poor customer service.  It's no service at all, or possibly your box got lost in transit.

    On the subject of Aidas-- I recently switched from Benz LPS to an Aidas Gala Gold.  The Aidas is lovely.  It is NOT starkly different than the LPS, but the Aidas has more treble extension and mid range detail.  Instrument timbre is rich, perhaps with a TOUCH of pleasant bloom.  The overused term "musical" applies here to the Aidas, and there's plenty of detail to go around.It sure is one pretty cartridge too!  I have it loaded at 300 ohms, which seems to me the loading sweet spot, but changing loading on my Zestos Deluxe 2 doesn't make a huge difference.  Tracking on the Aidas is on par for a LOMC, perhaps a bit better than the Benz.   Overall, the Aidas Gala Gold is my favorite cartridge I've owned.  I would not hesitate to continue with Aidas when this Gold wears down.  I'll probably get it retipped when the time comes.

    On the topic of repairs; Aidas Cartridges does repair, cantilever/stylus replacement and full rebuilds on all their carts. A nice feature imho versus a trade in program.
