I've never owned a Koetsu. I've listened to a few at different times. One was the very expensive $15,000 Koetsu and it sounded sickeningly sweet. At first I was impressed with its sound but after 10-minutes I couldn't stand it any longer. It did something to the sound of cymbals that became very annoying. I liked the lower priced Koetsu cartridges better, although I thought they became a bit harsh in the highs after listening for a while. Anyway, if I were planning to spend several thousand dollars for a phono cartridge, I would probably buy the new Audio Technica AT-ART1000 .
The new Audio Technica AT-ART1000 is somewhat unique with its moving coils mounted directly above the stylus. I know this is probably not a good thing from the standpoint of minimizing effective tip mass, but the concept intrigues me. Therefore, I would love to hear it. However, it's $5,000 price tag is still way too expensive for me.
To each his own!
