koetsu rosewood signature vs. Blue urushi


I'm buying a rosewood sig but at the last minute am wondering whether it is worth the 1k difference to get the urushi. Anyone have bay experience with either of these

Thanks for the follow up!!! What are your thoughts on the amounts of information delivered by the Vermillion @ .2mV verses the Blue @ .4mV ?
As far as i know is the output of all the urushis 0,4 , i would like to see some measurements from somebody on that , as there is no koetsu factory site

Go to needledoctor > phono cartridges > Koetsu > Urushi Sky Blue

You'll find the specs there!!!

Indeed and it says 0,4 for the sky blue .

The vermillion red specs from the needle doctor are contradictive , in the specs it says 0,2 and next to the picture it says :

The red-lacquered Urushi Vermillion uses a low-capacitance cantilever wand a Quadrahedron stylus. Its samarium-cobalt magnet and silver-clad six-nines copper coils produce an output of 0.4mV. Though it was "slightly polite on top" and lacked some air and space it's "rich and colorful" sound was never soggy or too romantic. The "artfully coded" Vermillion proved to be "one of a handful of most muscly engaging cartridges" in MF's experience.

If MF is michael fremer you now whom i trust , i ll check stereophile on the review .
I also asked another " well informed" source .
