Decided to treat myself to a new cartridge as its my birthday at the weekend.
Been very happy with the AT 150ml for the last couple of years so the newish AT-OC9XML seemed like it would fit the bill and give me a chance to try my first MC cart.
Initial impressions were great only to realise a fault with my phono stage (loss of left channel) after about 10 mins of playing. Checked everything out and its deffo the phono stage at fault.
Luckily its now happily playing via a loaner amp. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...db1fbcb189.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9fdaff912e.jpg

Somehow ive unexpectedly ended up buying an SME IV arm to go with my new AT OC09xml. Took me a while to set it up properly but all seems good now. Like REALLY good:-) Attachment 28808https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...f2a2f26276.jpg

Looking good Ben, glad it's coming together :thumbsup:
That looks good Ben. I had the OC09 MK2 https://www.audio-technica.com/en-us/at-oc9ml-ii sitting on my SME V some years ago. It was a great combo but I sold it to part fund buying the Cadenza black that I now own. How are you finding the upper treble with the AT/SME partnership?
So I had a few hours of listening to the new combo last night and there's a definite difference to the sound after changing from the jelco to the sme arm. There's now what I can only call a much better sense of precision across everything which is really wonderful. Everything sounds cleaner and more detailed but the bass so far seems to be the star of the show.

Evolution rather than revolution here, I've been thinking of upping my streaming game for a while and so last week I ordered the fidelity audio pro low noise psu & interface for my node 2i.

Installation took about 20 mins (Inc removal of the old "gubbins") and was really easy.
Just plugged it all back in and its working, no explosions or smoke!
Needs a few hundred hours of run in apparently so il see how things develop over the next few weeks.Attachment 30237Attachment 30238Attachment 30239

looks good but nothing needs hundreds of hours of run in. I don't know why manufacturers say that stuff, other than it's expected of them I suppose.
