Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix No questıon, you are a good friend Altan ;-) | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Hi Don,I hope Kansui (a bit higher compliance vs Shilabe) goes well with Graham.I listened to Kansui with Kuzma 4p tonearm and Clearaudio (dont exactly remember the model perhaps Innovation), it was marvellous. I also listened to PP1000 with Clear... | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Update: I bought Dr Feikhert protractor as well as its Adjust+ software and realigned Orpheus, this time it has performed much better (way above Phonenix) so Phoenix became the back up cartridge. Then came Transparent Ref MM phono (din to rca) cab... | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Raul, higher investments don't seem to be a problem for Number95! ;-)Well yes and no. Yes I can afford buying a second tonearm, two more cartridges as well as a more expensive phono cable. But, I want to be sure I am not wasting my hard earned cas... | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Hi Raul, your logic is undeniable, will get a phono cable from Transparent to test. Many thanks. | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix I would like to thank to all of you who shared their honest and sincere opinions as well as providing very useful information. Here is the plan for me. I decided to buy two cartridges. I understand Lyra and Zyx are more on the neutral and honest s... | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Thank you Raul. Looks like new candidates on my list (Kleos, Audio Tecnica mm), lots of homework :))Can you provide some info if you have any on phono cable for Graham? I have not yet decided on the phono cable for second tonearm, the one I have w... | |

So I am pleased to get your feedback here.I may think of so... | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Great to hear Altan, please let us know how your experiment goes.Have a nice listening,Hakan | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Altanpsx, thank you for your feedback, very strong points to consider, really appreciate. Perhaps, I better start with a different sound to complement rather than upgrading Phoenix and then perhaps the next project is replacing Phoenix later with ... | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Thank you guys for knowing me that cartridge. Pity is I am based in Istanbul Turkey, it seems as Jim said, that model is a customized one for American market, I am not quite sure I can get one here. I will ask local Zyx distributor. | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Thank you for sharing your views and experiences Doug. I will read the related reviews for Zyx Universe II. Yes, it is within my budget. Btw, I checked Zyx website and could not find universe, I see 4d and some other lines but not uni. Is that dis... | |
Second Cartridge With Transfiguration Phoenix Hi Jmgrogan2, I presume the house sound of Proteus in terms of tonality and neutrality would be very similar, while the new flagship should have more of a refinement compared to Phoenix. I did not listen to Proteus but lived with Orpheus for 3-4 y... | |
Understanding Gain in the ARC Ref Phono 2 SE I have Ref 2 SE and prefer so far its low gain setting with my current cartridge (a Transfiguration Phoenix, 0.4mv). Compared to high gain, low gain has considerably better tonal seperation, more refined soundstage and has more neutral and realist... | |
Transfiguration Phoenix It has been a pleasant surprise for me while I was checking from google about Transfiguration cartridges that by chance I have seen my original post thay I opened here in 2007. It seems after 5-6 years I got plenty responses :))Anyway, I used to b... |
