Top quality cartridge. The legendary Koetsu mid-range is present and correct, and I found it in no way lacking at the frequency extremes once run-in.

It also benefits from a more 'normal' compliance than the (stiffer, low compliance) Rosewood, Urushi and Stone models, making it the Koetsu best suited for modern light-medium mass tonearms.
A classy performer ...
