the new MSL

But not the right specifications

The Diamond has surely no boron cantilever.

And what is correct, 1,4 (mostly stated) or 1,6 ohm for the Diamond?

very good so I can complain to the importer for the incorrect details as well as the price list

I had the chance to listen to the MSL Diamond on my system yesterday. It is a Platinum Signature on steroids : more of everything. It was difficult to go back to the Platinum Signature.

We compared it against some other top contenders among others the Phasemation PP5000 and the Etsuro Gold

I like your cartridge storage case. Is that something commercial or homemade?

Fidelity Research. Some can still be found on Ebay.

Thank you. I just ordered one.

Thank you. I just ordered one.

Such a smaller thing can really do ”the most perfect experience” in the audioroom!!!

Even the sound could be of better experience just because of this….. I love it !

I thought I would jump into this msl thread rather than start a fresh one.

I'm shopping for a tonearm to go with my msl eminent ex and high mass tt. I'm just in initial shopping stages. Budget maybe around 2500 +/- (probably used).

Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions on arms, brands or specs they think works well with msl in general or my car in particular...

Thanks for that

MS Signature Platinum works well with Acoustic Signature TA 2000 NEO

My MSL Eminent EX works great with my Kuzma 4Point 11" and XL DC TT (high mass) connected to my CH P1 with X1.

I've been attracted to the ikedo 407 and this calculator give air the thumbs up. I think may pull the trigger

The 4 point was my goal as an upgrade from my current stogi s. I've already spent a little too much on my turntable build so I decided to shoot a little cheaper. Someday tho

From my own experience the MS Signature Platinum works WONDERFUL on the CS Port Linear Arm AFU1-2. On my Kuzma Safir it was just OK. Waiting to receive the new MSL Sig Diamond and take it for a spin on both arms.

Super nice arm. I'm unlikely to find one in my price constraints but it's going on the list to hunt for.

Hello all,
Since AC-6 has been discussed here, maybe someone can help me. I'm planning to upgrade both my turntable and cartridge. Planning to get Accuphase AC-6 and mount it on Pro-Ject Classic Reference turntable. Would those two be a good match? The turntable choice is due to XLR connections and decent looks.

Big thanks!

 

[SOS]

Hello @El Puerco Volante have never heard myself the Accuphase AC-06 cartridge but at the US price of $6,975 don't think I'd be putting it on a 6K table. Maybe an MSL Eminent EX or one of the SoundSmith cartridges. But hopefully others can chime in if they have heard the combo.
Good luck in your quest and HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Thanks, same for you That's the best turntable I found with XLR connection, except a 50k machine, but that's a tad too much. If anyone knows a better one for a half-reasonable price - happy to hear a suggestion. And of course very much looking forward to someone who knows the products I'm after. Really not sure if those are a good match but don't have a way to listen upfront.
