RE: New Technics GAE has arrived

Hi John,

Thanks for your note. As noted, I am using a Ortofon Cadenza Black exclusively for these comparisons. Since this is a very expensive cartridge, I only have one and that is a definite limitation. Your double cartridges and ability to record are both vastly superior to what I have. I am getting pretty good at swapping the cartridge, ~5 minutes, but am not verifying ideal alignment, instead relying on marking the correct position of the cartridge in the head shell. This is close but not perfect and is less than ideal, as I am sure you agree. Anyway it is much easier to simply move the head shell from the MK2 to the GAE and the reverse, than it is to switch to the Prime. This is a major factor in my hesitancy to draw too many conclusions too quickly especially concerning the Prime.
