I like them both very much. Thanks Bonzo. I do hear a slight hiss in the left channel of recording A. Both have great immediacy, life, and nuanced beauty. A sound to which it is worth trying to aspire.
What is the cartridge/arm source combination in these videos? I always liked Tang's early videos that show the needle drop with LP cover filmed off in the side alcove before the camera moves to the desk chair.
Thank you for posting food picture my friend from Liechtenstein. I am drooling right now. I just had this super super good Korean dessert call Bingsu with a Thai twist. I just itch to tell people but don't know will be appropriate. You are my excuse to post. Howie has young children I bet he had enjoyed it with them before.

It's Howie's fault, he called for Rösti
I will try and convince my wife to try and prepare Bingsu for us.
Do you happen to have a tried and tested recipe for Bingsu?
Sorry for OT

Not sure what the subtext for these recent posts are all about but I do know people seem to like some weird stuff. So anyways...are $1m systems weird? Guess it depends on the state of the monetary system but up till last half decade I would have never thought of such a thing for a home...but it's what a lot of these systems do add up to...
That is very interesting. Two masterpieces from the same artist. They both sound great. I have a 5R Grand Cru and a Master Signature modified to low output. They sound excellent but they present the music slightly differently.
Right now I have an older Colibri XPP mounted on my back arm. It has platinum windings and a plastic body. Low output of .3 mV. It sounds excellent and is possibly more dynamic and nuanced than the newer cartridges.
I am interested in Neumann cart. There is a black one pop up in the neighborhood so I went to hear how it is. It is a black Neumann DST62. I really didn't know what to expect. The place I went is more like a workshop of vintage audio...not setup for listening. So many stuff laying around. Ked would love this workshop. The place is owned by Mr.Yanyong, a vintage procurer. He finds stuff for Mr.T who possibly the biggest audiophile in Thailand, one of ddk's customer too. I listened the black Neumann with two different WE horns. The amps were Kondo Gakuoh. Pre also Kondo. DIY phono with both WE 618B and Neumann BV 33 step up. TT was 930 with banana arm. Although I could only hear some extraordinary aspect of sound from this cart due to improper setup, it was more than enough to trigger me to put this cart on my "must-have" list. The speakers were out of place enough to not have any sound stage. The bass had no articulation, etc. Orchestra was unlistenable. I could only listen vocal and solo violin. But boy those vocal and violin were beyond my system. It had "the tone" "the presence" "the soul" that once heard define the true meaning of EE. I was just thinking if these gears were in my room set up properly. How great it could be. Of course I was hearing the system not just the cart. But Yanyong also played the Neuman replica that he thought sounded excellent. It was not in the same league as the black Neumann and definitely no "soul". Tbh I don't think if I had this Neumann in my system it will sound this good. My speakers cannot produce this remarkable midrange. I also found that the 618B was detrimental to get this tone-presence-soul package. When we switched step up to BV 33, it sounded like a different Neumann. Great vintage can really be beyond the high end.
Funny we talk so much in various threads about how tone is the essence of gold standard sound. Tone is such an essence that cable manufacturers base their design philosophy of their top of the line $15,000 a meter cable on. Series after series. Never reach the end. Yet "the tone" that I heard and hope more people had a chance to hear came from a combination of old audio parts passing signal via $200 diy copper Siemens wire with some silver.
