    Default new cartridge on its way .

    ive just bought a candenza black to compare against the decca c4e,ive secretly wanted to try one since owning the 2m black so it will be an interesting comparison.
    which one will come out on top i wonder?

    Wow!! Another one joining the Ortofon Cadenza B club
    Have I ever said I'm a big fan by any chance ? !!

    Don't expect a cart that throws in your face ballsy excitement at you - it doesn't impose itself.

    It is very neutral, digs deep and gets hold of whats been recorded \ the music.

    Expect the qualities of what the 2MB does but even more refinement and detail \ information of texture timbre and seperation of individual parts and nuances.

    Plays all genres with poise and balance - I love mine unashamedly

    Can we have an Ortofon group? I may be about to join too. Albeit not with a Cadenza Black.

    You'll be glad to know Jamie it isn't as painful to set up as the 2MB.

    Still requires careful meticulous setup and vta sensitive - slightly negative rake too like the other Shibata Ortofons in my experience.
