My local dealer has the Hanna E SH on one of his demo Acoustic Signature Turntables. He also sells used records so I was able to demo my records on the TT. Excellent balanced neutral sound w/plenty of detail from top end to bass. I've had experience w/Ortofon and I find it tips a bit to much to the top for my taste.
Hana or Ortofon cartridge
Hi, I'm looking at purchasing a Hana E SH or an Ortofon Black cartridge. I have a Music Hall Ikura turntable. It has the Ortofon Blue cartridge that came with it. Has anyone had or heard both cartridges? I am looking for a better overall improvement. I have read about both and either sound very good. I would like more detail, more soundstage, and a little tighter bass. I have a Denon 3802 receiver. Nothing great but, it works. Any advice would be helpful. I listen to a lot of jazz and rock. I would love to get better sound from both. Thanks
