Jeff aka A/V Solutions system

Found some magic with the Shelter Harmony......I hadn't yet tried it with my Innovation/universal and my initial intentions were to run it on the AMG which I did but went ahead and installed it on the Innovation to hear.....The Shelter has found a permanent place, its really nice :)

Jeff - love that ClearAudio table.
Can you tell us a little more about the Shelter Harmony cartridge?
 
Nice Jeff !! Is that the carbon fiber one? From all accounts that one sweet cartridge
 
Yes the body material is layers of carbon fiber.....and its reported the resonance frequency of carbon material is out of the audible frequency range. Its easy to detect just how quiet it tracks, almost as if it wasn't in the groove. A stand out for me is how fluid and at ease things are moving from quiet passages to a complex one's, never a rough transition it just flows! Another thing I find is it doesn't favor a particular or one freq as so many cartridges do......the highs are not pushed way out front nor the bottom end is covering up the mids and highs, its easy to move about and dial in on one or all the performers. I think lot's of attention was directed towards the dynamic range of the Harmony.....Having set the harmony up several times you do need to be precise in its set up.

Thanks Jeff. Would you rank it right up there with the best of the best?
 
Hey Jeff, wondered when you were going to put your head up again, then again with a room like yours you are probably busy quite some of the time. Zesto Audio makes some really great looking gear, very interested in what you think of them.
 
Wow so zesto amp -$12.5
Zesto pre $7.5
And zesto phono pre $4.3

That's damn near an entire really nice system for a really good price!!!
Throw in a table/ cart and speakers. I'd love to hear it all together.

Me too......the amp and pre will be here tomorrow:D
