After plenty of listening my verdict is that it does indeed change the sound, subtly yes but it's very detectable.
The first thing I notice is an extended bass, could be a fraction of a dB or more greater amplitude in that freq range?
This also impacts the overall music as Hugo finds, perhaps it's a harmonics thing?
I can't detect any negatives offsetting this in other areas of the sound or overall coherence.
This is of course for the Fidelity Research FR64s arm.
Hugo and Dubster68 have covered the Jelco SA-750D.
