Greetings from Australia - where its already tomorrow!
I recently upgraded my rega rp6 with your Othello cartridge. I have been using an ortofon bronze.
So much more detail and great base. Only problem now I have to listen to all my 800+ lps again to hear what I have been missing. My hifi retailer recently put the Othello on a rp10 with audio research valve phono, pre and power amp and sonus faber speakers and the result was extra amazing.

Thanks again for a great experience

They Said What?

I played this album a few times on my system before adding the Zephyr MK III ES. I found it far superior to the CDs I'd listened to, with excellent tone on Miles' trumpet and a deep and wide soundstage. But when I listened to it the first time with the Zephyr MK III ES, it was another level of cool. Right off the bat, the surface noise was down, significantly. Secondly, the soundstage was deeper and wider than I have ever heard on my system before. James Cobb's snare had more snap and his high hat took on more air. Song after song, I was completely engaged in the music.
