Moving coil with silky top end
In the next few months I would like to upgrade my Eroica LX cartridge. I am very happy with it but I feel my new Ekos SE is capable of taking something with a silkier treble - a slight hardness at the top end is the only thing I can fault the Eroica for.
Any suggestions?
I am hoping to listen to some cartridges at Cimbiosis as they set my LP12 up. Their brands are Linn, Kiseki, Lyra and Dynavector. I am happy to spend four figures as this will probably be my end cartridge (I hope!).
I like the reviews of Lyra but have never heard one.
Thanks in advance
