Vpijs

Recently purchased Hana SL and Elac PPA2 to see if the moving coil was worth it. I was previously using a Nagaoka MP300 and very satisfied, but had the itch to see if the grass was greener. My system is VPI Scout w/JMW 9+ and Parasound A23 & P6 pre. The Hana SL compared to the Nagaoka MP300 is superior in every way. I know this is a bold statement and maybe the Elac helps the comparison, but the Hana is slightly better in all aspects. Couldn’t believe it and now I’m curious if going up the MC price chain will yield even better results.

Hi, looking to venture into the MC cartridge realm and looking for the best MC preamp under $1k. I narrowed it down to the two listed in the title. Thoughts? Thanks!
