only 4 stars because the dust cap is difficult to put back on without hitting the stylus. Otherwise, love the sound, need to keep it clean, bogs down with dust and the signal degrades.

I would have given this 5 stars but for the dust cap that comes with the unit that is very tricky to put back on without hitting on the cantilever.

I often wondered how much impact an upgraded cartridge would have and I am super pleased to say that this was a substantial one. The level of detail I hear now over my entry level Hana (great in its own right) is amazing. Just the granularity and channel separation has taken my audio experience to a new level of satisfaction. Very pleased. Thank you as always for a real, personal level of service by real people that truly care about the music and their customers. So, so refreshing in our modern era.

Months ago I decided to upgrade my worn out Ortofon Black MM cartridge. After some research, and multiple conversations with the staff here, I decided on making the jump up to my first MC cartridge. I've tested this cartridge with different tubes, and a solid state amplifier, and what I can say for sure is that the Hana is definitely a smoother cartridge. Everything is presented how the record intends for it to be presented, rather than things always sounding bright or always sounding warm, etc. When listening to UHQR's and the like, it presents the detail, clarity, and soundstage one would desire. When spinning lower quality records, modern digital records, they are more pleasant to listen to (to my ears, and in my room) than the previously owned MM cartridges I've used. Everything feels more balanced, less harsh, and just smooth. I love this shop and this staff.
