Koetsu Onyx Platinum

There are quiet trackers and then there is this cartridge. Amazingly quiet. The sound? It’s so musical and engaging.

Randy, it's only money, they print that shit every day ! :snicker:

Hehe Dave... it's only money.... hmmm, how about I send the bill for a new amp to you :)... I promise it will only be a basic model, like an introductory McIntosh.... I mean... what the hell it's only money :D...

not a problem, so long as you understand I pay in 'Monopoly money' ! :D

That's no different to FIAT currency we call dollars... In fact, your word and Monopoly money may actually be more honest than a government that prints, controls as well as sets policies that ultimately debases the currency through the "hidden tax" called inflation so they can service/pay off their debt. Well, the one part is working (inflation), the other... eh... not so much. 29 Trillion $ debt and climbing to the moon! In my line of work/businesses, I've encountered way too many senior citizens that did not prepare well for their golden years and savings for retirement. Hard working people.. sad.
 
Koetsu is for connoisseurs. Like it, Mike.

Do people have such short attention spans that they need to go off on ridiculous tangents? Jeez. If you think it is too expensive or it isn’t worth the cost to you just move on. You don’t have to post about it.

The cartridge looks great. Looking forward to listening impressions and comparisons.
 
The end result is harmonious and cohesive, and the music unfolds in a way that gives you more time to listen – more time to unravel the individual strands that form part of the whole." Hi-Fi+

“… the Koetsu endured in delivering boatloads of color and texture, yet at the same time I’ve never heard a cartridge with greater, clearer pitch certainty on even the lowest bass notes ... All in all, the Koetsu Onyx Platinum communicated color, texture, touch, and musical nuance to an extent and in a combination that I’d never before heard ...”

I'd say buy one now if it is in the cards, not when it is up another 50% due to inflation :D
 
It certainly is not "haters", it is a discussion...

"what's not to like" a legitimate discussion response is "Price"

Why do some people always try to turn everything into an issue when it is purely a discussion... maybe try to mellow out and stop trying to cause a controversy when one does not exist.
 
Agreed Randy, just a little levity, that's all !

Mike, on a serious note, what's the body of that beauty made from ?
 
Heck, for ten grand, one can get the Beatles mono set on the secondary market ....
