Aeon4

I swapped my old cartridge for this mono version and the vocal clarity jumped out immediately—midrange detail I’d never heard before. Took about two albums to fully break in, but now it tracks inner grooves without any distortion.

The stereo imaging is incredibly precise—I'm hearing separation in my old records I never noticed before. Setup was straightforward, and it tracks even the most demanding passages without any distortion.

I ordered the Mono version for my mono jazz pressings and the channel separation is night and day compared to what I was running before. Tracking through inner grooves on older vinyl is noticeably cleaner now. Just be ready to wait, since it's a special order with no returns.
