An Audiophile in Seattle "Hana ML Phono Cartridge Upgrade & Sound Test!" 

Thanks for watching! 👌🎼✨

Your gonna love it! 🥳👌🎼💯🏆✨

Wow Justin! If you get it, let me know how it sounds! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🎼👍✨

@@vpconcepts9838 will do

Thanks as always John! 👌🎼✨

It's crazy Tony, for some reason it didn't like my power conditioners or something! I had to take it out and move it to a different outlets because it became to saturated and strangled the sound. It became very edgy sounding. My friend upgraded to an audience power conditioner and had to pull his MC-0.5 out too. I was totally bummed and so was he. Mine is for sale on Audiogon now. I will do a follow up video at a later date. You win some and you loose some in this hobby. Thank you very much for watching! 👌🎼✨

That's interesting. When I first installed mine, it was love at first sight. l was awe struck and loved it. However, after several days of listening, the sound began to take on a bright and edgy character. But, I stayed with it and over time (I think it was about 48 hours), the glorious sound returned and the bright edginess never returned. Go figure...

Hey buddy!!! Of course I have an Okki Nokki record cleaner with musical fidelity cleaner and super rinse 😉👌🎼✨

@@vpconcepts9838 Ah ok awesome, your on it then . Enjoying the snow ? We got hammered down here in Olympia.

😉👌🎼✨

It has 54 hours on it now and it's still going up! They say it needs 100 hours to settle in. Thanks for watching Daniel! 👌🎼✨

@@vpconcepts9838 Thanks for the information. I am also a McIntosh Man. Preamp 2300, to MEN 220 into twin 275 which I have Mono Blocked Ending with a Pair of Audio Physic Virgo 25 which I am told were the first pair sold/ordered in Canada. I will be putting the Hana on an Avid Volever with a Rega arm. My CD player is also Mc but my tuner is by Magnum Dynalab (I had to spend some money in my own country) Again thanks for taking the time to replay

Nice! 👊🎼✨

You will Scotty!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🎼✨

Thanks! How's the Hegel been since repair?

@@vpconcepts9838 I've just received notice from George Meyer AV that the amp is fixed. It took a long time for the techs to ferret out the cause of the static noise in the right channel. (It was a circuit board problem--excess solder making an errant connection.) But the mystery is now solved, so I hope to have the H30 back soon.

@@TheMinster1960 Thank goodness! Happy listening days ahead for you now! 👌🎼✨

I went through a lot to sit in this spot. I'm glad I get to share it with all my audiophile friends! 😉👌✨🙏🏻🎼

Thanks John! MC is the way to go. 😉👌💯🎼✨

My buddy has your integrated because he loved my MA 6600 so much. He was a die hard Bryson fan for 30+ years, it took him 2 years to see the light, he hasn’t looked back. 🤓

The M series are 9.5 g

For sure!!! You hit it on the nose 👍🎼✨

Great to hear John! New Synergistic Research Orange fuse video coming soon! 👌🎼✨

@@vpconcepts9838 let me know how you make out with those fuses Sr is a great company, expensive but great.

I feel ya. 😫 Thanks for watching always Larry! 🙏🏻👌🎼✨

It's so musical. Got about 56 hours on this now. They say it's ready at 100. You will be very happy. Thanks for watching Colin! 👌🎼✨

Thank you for watching always! 🙏🏻🎼✨

Only owned the AT & Hana so far! 👌🎼✨

I have a video showing how I clean my albums on my channel. 😉👌🎼✨

That's on another level

LOL! My Okki Nokki machine is a beast. But I have been curious about the ultra sonic machines too 😉👌🎼✨

I had a VPI 16.5 and it was good, but loud. I decided to move to the Kirmuss....takes a lot of time, but when I say a THROUGHLY cleaned ultrasonic record puts you in MASTERTAPE territory IT IS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH !! Go Kirmuss if you cannot go Degritter or if you have time to get that extra 5% clean........Degritter is all in one and it alone will PUZZLE YOU HOW GOOD VINYL CAN SOUND !! If I were to speak with vinyl playback practitioners, I would say get a decent LP front end (let's say $500 to $1000 for all parts) and then go FULL SPEED AHEAD ultrasonic cleaning machine and new inner/outer sleeves..... ....my conjecture is that a Kirmuss Ultrasonic restoration (with multiple rinses after the cleaning process is done [5-7]) would have given you more improvement than your WORTHY upgrade to the Hanna ML !!
