yes; the 301/Triplaner/dartzeel does have that 'roundness', punch, and slight fullness. it is interesting how when you combine the Garrard with the Triplaner (which is slightly on the lean-neutral side) and the darTZeel phono stage (which is very low noise and neutral with a touch of sweetness) that you still have the Garrard 'sound' come thru.
the A90 (1) has absolutely no high frequency leanness or brightness, and (2) does not punish less than perfect pressings.
at RMAF i was in the Soundsmith room listening to the new Sussaro MM cartridge from Soundsmith. it was mounted both on an TNT HRX with a VPI arm and a Teres Certus with Illius arm. it was 'just another cartridge' on the HRX but was quite special on the Teres. i've heard the Raven, the A90 would be very happy there.
