Soundsmith "The Voice"?


I'd like to receive some impressions/opinions on The Voice. How does it fare vs. the typically heralded LOMCs? I'm particularly interested b/c of the easy interchangeability of stereo & mono carts. Also: if anyone can tell me the difference betwn the acrylic body and the wood, I'd appreciate it. Thanks guys!

I recently purchased a Voice cartridge. Have about 30 hours on it. My music is exclusively classical with an emphasis on voices and early music on original instruments. I have been collecting for 50 years and some of my Lp's are that old. I've never gone onto the crazy priced cartridges but I do have a good analog system with a Set amp. The Voice is, without doubt the finest sounding cartridge I've ever owned. I've discovered subtle sounds that I ever knew existed. A real winner. Mounted on a SME V tone arm A little tricky to set up but Peter of Soundsmith was most helpful.
