At this point it would prolly have been cheaper & easier to just have kept the Dreiklangs!

So, 50+ albums into this new cartridge and I have been playing with a few things.
Through the Allnic phono, for now I have settled on the x26 gain/117ohm impedance setting (out of the four available gain/impedance configurations). This has definitely opened out the sound, adding a bit of “air”(?).
I have also raised the tonearm base on the Technics by 0.5 tonight which has added some higher frequency emphasis.
In conclusion, still playing with it.
Comparing it to the Hana ML it replaced, what it lacks in finesse/detail/air is more than made up by it’s punch/verve. I am so bad at describing this stuff.
Also, I need to get my ears hoovered after 10 days of sea swimming. Living up to my AA handle, unfortunately.

Lol, do miss the bass though, hence the sub. Plus side is I can now see out the window into the garden.
Sub has 2x10" drivers so still only the same cone area as one fridge bass driver
