This is really a heads up.
I was considering getting a Hana SL but as I had a worn out AT33EV, I thought I would contact audio technica about the trade in scheme.

After an initial exchange of emails with AT, I decided to go for a brand new AT33EV, and the cost was £252 with delivery.
AT examined my old AT33EV and it was in need of replacing, quite important to have the original receipt, which needs to be scanned and sent along with any original packaging.

The whole process was very good and efficient from audio technica, I'm very pleased with the new cartridge and I do prefer it's overall sound and balance compared to my OC9 MLII.

So if you have an audio technica cartridge and fancy another, give it a try.
