“A perfect match with my Rega P8. Beautiful in construction, awesome in performance. My vinyl is revealing detail not heard with my previous setup.”

“Highly recommended. The Blue is definitely a step up from my previous Dynavector 20x2L. I'm no expert in cartridges but in my opinion this cartridge punches way above its weight.”

“Have not had time to take my TT over to my friend, Charlie Vallejo, to set up. Holidays now here probably won't get to it until next year.”

“An upgrade from the Hana ML which is a terrific cartridge too. I expected improvements to be subtle and they were. I just didn't expect so many subtle improvements, the sum total of which are huge.”

“This replaced a Hana ML. I know some are wondering if it's a big enough improvement over the ML to upgrade. Simple answer...YES. Tracks like a champ and is super quiet in the grooves. The ML was great for jazz but not so enjoyable for rock. The Umami Blue sounds excellent for both as it seems to tame the mids while presenting smooth highs and tight punchy lower end. If you're sitting on the fence, don't hesitate. It's worth it.”
