Has anyone heard one? Does anyone plan on purchasing one? The purchase
price is $800.00......:scratch2:

I haven't heard one, but sure would like to....I just got a Concept TT last week. They are supposed to match up very nicely.

I've not heard the cartridge either. CA certainly make a fine sounding cartridge so I can't imagine it being anything but good. But without hearing one that pretty much means nothing.

I guess we will all have to wait and see if someone reviews it. Hopefully soon....

I read it was based on the Clearaudio Aurum.

Isn't the Aurum a moving magnet cartridge?

Indeed it is, I must have read that from one of the early reviews. The pics and specs,together with the pdf owners manual are all up on Clearaudio's webpage.

(there seems to be some wide price variations, some UK dealers have it for £990, whilst other at a more reasonable £545)

Interesting that the cartridge body is an Aluminum-Magnesium alloy with ceramic surface layer. That is quite unique.

Ya, I know, nothing like the Aurum......
