Clearaudio Jubilee MM Cartridge

The channel matching is noticeably better than my previous cartridge, with a much more stable stereo image. It tracks high-energy passages cleanly right from the first play, and the hand-selected performance level really shows.

The channel matching on this cartridge is uncanny—stereo imaging locks in so precisely that the soundstage feels completely solid. I can tell it was hand-selected, because the left and right balance is spot-on right out of the box.

I’ve been using this cartridge for a few weeks now and the channel matching is noticeably tighter than my previous one, which really cleans up the center image. Tracks well without sounding harsh, though I do wish it had a bit more low-end punch for rock records.
