Was over at Bill's this morning and listened to the new Kai cartridge. I thought the 9TT was good. The Kai easily surpassed it in terms of information retrieval and soundstaging. Unbelievable! Where will this all end?

Can someone help a rookie here .:eek:

Will this cartridge be a "good choice" for a Reed 3P tonearm?
(coming from a linn akiva/jelco setup, so you know what kind of sound i'm used to)
Thanks!

Bill Demarr is the US importer and a member here. He should be able to help or you could PM him!

Also, remember the output is very low (0.2 mV). That eliminates it for some people.
