Robert Pincus Reviews Cartridges with Rising Top Ends (+5db at 20kz, Ouch!)

He writes:

This kind of explains why all the Lyra’s sound the way they do. It’s the same thing with Clear Audio. You buy them to get that “sound.”

Sure, they do some great things. Speed often comes with a rising top end, and there’s no dip in the lower highs, which I like.

This kind of response works wonders on old Living Stereo Chet Atkins and Mancini LPs. They’re soft on top!

Don’t play your old Heifetz LPs with one of these.
