RE: AT-ART7

I think I should try the Art7. I imagine if I hate it I will be able to sell it with an acceptable loss. I use the AT OC-9ML Mk II as my everyday cartridge, and AT33PTG occasionally, when I need more mids/slam, so I think that AT "home" sound will be very familiar.

We compared Orpheus to Koetsu Rosewood Signature and Lyra (something late and severely expensive (close to $9K)). I preferred Lyra as my first choice, Koetsu as second, and Orpheus - I could not tolerate. Lyra was also the best tracker. The system was around $300K, so we could trust it :-)) I've heard Orpheus again this Saturday in Brooklyn, on rather decent system, and my opinion has not changed.

BTW, after Fremer's favorable take on Beatles stereo remastered vinyl, I tend to stay away from his reviews. IMHO.

Thank you for your input!
