On german analogue sites I found great reviews of the japanese Yamamoto HS-1A (11.2 gr)in african black-wood headshell combined together with a Denon 103 (R or Pro).
Did someone here try it out?
Thanks for any answer!

Ciao Piero,

The Yamamoto looks nice, granted, but from experience I can tell you that it's not heavy enough. The 103 needs an 18g headshell, at the minimum, or a 20g one, optimally.

Tutto e bene stasera a Roma? Auguri di Natale a lei e alla sua famiglia :)

Marco.

Which headshell would you suggest? It's difficult to find such an heavy one. BTW I own an elder heeavy Ortofon shell (SPU like) but the cartridge (inside) can't be shifted as usual for the justage and so it's quite useless ...

Grazie Marco, contraccambio gli auguri di buon Natale alla Tua famiglia ed a Te, ma come fai, fuori patria, senza pasta alle vongole alla vigilia, fritti dorati di carciofi e zucchine natalizi ed il panettone o pandoro?

Dimenticavo sopra ho un braccio abbastanza pesante da 13 pollici (Ortofon AS-309S) con il peso supplementare grande, ma veramente mi serve poi una shell da 20gr. senza generare risonanze non volute?
