hasn't been a good indication of what sounds good to me, tho.
I was originally hang up on it but as I tried many cartridges on the ARO, some, even with the ideal distance, can under perform compare to others. ( a few Dynavector carts come to mind )
ARO isn't that fussy in terms of cartridge choices. Many do more or less *work*. I don't think this is a super duper precision instrument.
My problem right now is to find a suitable replacement for the Miyabi/47 which might not have had the correct geometry, but boy I really miss the voicing of this cartridge!
Nothing like it out there for the money so far. I value an overall cartridge voicing and dynamics more over a geometry now.
