RE: REVIEW: Ortofon Cadenza Black Phono Cartridge

Yes it is a Zeta. The arm is a bit heavy for the Jubilee's compliance. Arm and cart resonate around 8hz. Marginal. But sq is good. Plus the Zeta does not impede musical energy, unlike some other arms. On the TD124, the cartridge does not sound as laid back as it did on my Teres.

I'm using a 30:1 tap on the Beyer Dynamic step up trannies for this cartridge. Reflected load is around 52ohms. Really close to the 10 times internal cart resistance rule of thumb.

A different lens over the music compared to other arm/cart combinations I've tried.
