Miyajima Premium BEII

Having fun with this beautiful looking / sounding cartridge. Working the Jelco SA 750D arm a bit too, added the heavier counterweight to match the AT-LH18/OCC - 18g TechniHarsd adjustable headshell.

 

Looks good, I'd love to try a Miyajima one day. I do have that headshell and love it.

 

I have the Premium Mono BE (not the II version) which I use on a Jelco 250 with heavy counter weight. Did you have the original BE and then get the II version?

I like Miyajima cartridges and would like to try out one of their stereo models when my Dynavector needs replacing.

I have a Kansui, very good cart.

 

I was looking at the Takumi and Waza models. I am leaning towards the Takumi with its lower tracking force.

Thanks Rolltide. I find that even when I feel as though I've tightened the left/right movement of the headshell, I still can adjust it with a gentle adjustment using my hand. Have you experienced this?

 

Hi Scott, no I'm a new Miyajima user. Yes, stereo would be awesome to try, let us know if you do.

 

Do you mean the azimuth? I've never messed with it myself.

 

I have heard from a guy that is well respected in the audio industry especially for making tonearms (he is pretty famous but I wont give his name) that in fact from the Miyajimas he prefers the Premium mono over the Zero. He also prefers the Kansui over the Madake.

 

Not sure why my photo isn't in the 1st post...reposting here...

 

Have you comared the Zero to the Premium if yes what are your thoughts?

 

Hi Razorball, no I have not.
