Further Information
I bought this cartridge December 2022 and it was professionally installed January 2023 by the wonderful people at Frank Prowse Hifi and professionally uninstalled by the equally wonderful people at Douglas Hifi November 2025.
this is the second Charisma Audio Cartridge I’ve owned and have no complaints regarding sound or building quality - if you read through the reviews, they are assembled in Canada with Japanese internals and the various body’s. The sound follows the Owner of Charisma Audio ( Bernard Li) rational of the detail of a Lyra with the warmth of a Koetsu? Certainly I found there to be plenty of detail and a good tight bass - without it being overly bright.
hours wise - not a lot due to work demands, choice of 3 sources ( cds, records and more recently streaming) I’m going to say 100hrs, but to be honest I doubt if a 100 records have been played.
selling because I treated myself to an AT ART20 which hopefully might see more use.
I have included quite a few photos, I took just before the ART20 was fitted and hopefully they saw the condition of stylus/cartridge. All the various accessories including screw driver, mounting screws , spririt level are included with the rather lovely box.
