Anyone using this cartridge? I'm on my second AT-OC9-III and really like the cartridge. The ART9 is twice the price and I'm thinking it would be a nice upgrade. Any input is appreciated. Thanks ...
I have a rogue Ares phono stage. I'd like to find out if anyone who's using this phono stage with the ART9 and hear what load and capacitance settings are being used. Thank you
Installed my ART9 a week ago. It took forever for my Grado w/MCZ stylus to reach its decline stage. Have about 60 sides played and it is wonderful. My TT is a VPI Traveler Ver 1. Still searching for the correct VTA settings, for thin records. I found the sweet spot for 180/200g. Totally impressed so far. Smooth, precise and powerful are my adjectives.
Probably have a 25 or so. Have played one of the Beatles mono reissue. Really livened up SPLHCB and going to play the 45 rpm version of "Surrealistic Pillow" soon, when I feel like changing sides every 8 minutes. Looking forward to it.
Had a listening session with an audiophile friend tonight and the conversation eventually came around to the ART-9. The consensus was that the ART-9 never draws attention to itself, but just simply disappears.
