The arm is abit lower near the lifting handle and a bit higher at the cart. Tracking ability is much better now. The stylus does not jump with wraped records. The bass is much deeper. The stereo image is more precise. Curiously the treble is more detailed. And the mids are also richer and fuller.

Serge,
I have a question. I read the instructions for the Maestro cartridge and it recommends using the metal platform with a wood cart. Looking at Clearaudios site they also show this metal platform in place. Was there any reason you chose not to fit it? Thanks Darren |

The extra weight is supplied for those needing a bit more headshell weight......the Maestro weighs in at 7 grams and can be a tad light with some arms. If your using a Clearaudio table with the Satisfy arm then you really don't need it however the Concept table with the Magnify arm bennifits from the extra mass at the headshell IMO.

I have experience the same thing with and with out the weight on the Magnify.....IMO the Maestro is to lite for the Magnify arm hence its design, much better match with the Satisfy arm and no extra weight needed. When the Concept/Magnify hit the market the Maestro seemed to be the cart. best suited for the this package but as time went on we found the maestro not living up to its known performance as it does with the Satisfy and other arms. The magnify really shines with heavier cartridges like the Benz Ace, Benz Wood L2/H2, Ortofon Cadenza series, Ortofon Rhondo series, Shelter 501, Denon 103/103R and the new Concept cartridge which was designed for the Magnify......these all are in the 8 plus gram range and IMO better suited for the Magnify arm. As always YMMV
