Has anyone heard the Miyajima 'Snakewood' cartridge,

Nandric, Once you squeeze all the oil out of it, snake wood is really hard.

After running it through the Cardas pink noise locked grooves for about 12 hours, the Snakewood Madake has opened enough to assess it - maybe more will be revealed, but what I'm hearing now certainly makes my heart beat a little faster.  Its general nature is still Miyajima: natural and neutral and still with the most musical midrange I've heard.  But this snakewood body creates a more detailed and precise image. Hard to believe, but the bass is now tighter and  the treble is extended slightly more with a noticeable increase in air surrounding each instrument, singer, etc.   

And I should mention also that the now-pin-point imaging is noticeably sharper within a more expansive soundstage than what the Blackwood Madake renders - though the Shuguang Black Treasure KT-88’s in the VAC Phi 300 may contribute there as well.

amazing - I'm playing the Beethoven Quartet box by Juilliard- and it's tracking musically like no other cartridge before. 

Last night the Snakewood Madake opened even further, allowing me to occupy the space, even the height, of the recording venue of Solti's Don Carlo on London.  Tonight I fed it through the Miyajima KSW SUT to achieve a 'rightness' of analog playback I've never achieved before in my system. I'm sure more will be revealed.  A match made in heaven.
