| Help with Cartridge choice @artemus_5 - thank you, you already answered part of my question, which was about compatibility. One part of that is th ephonostage, which seems good here, the other is the tonearm mass, which i am not sure how to go about.... | |
| Help with Cartridge choice Thanks, in fact was looking at the at-art9 and willkep that in mind. Really appreciate. I am all sorted with amps (Mola Mola Kalugas), and speaker is a different ball game...will take couple of years to get there. | |
| Anyone here with Magico A3 driven by Bel Canto Ref600's? tgun5 - despite the frustration you had to go thru, this thread provided many good insights. I am a bel canto ref 1000M MkII owner and am considering upgrading as I buy a Magico S5 MkII pair. It will be useful to hear your current views on the A3/... |
