The Hana ML cartridge on my GH 242 Silver Plus arm with my rigidity mod that Len Gregory & George Hadcock incorporated in to later 242 arms it also has a custom made XTC counterweight now as was the Musicmaster damped with Audio Origami damping fluid,  feeding my Croft phono stage with mods & SUT's by my friend Mark Manwaring-White, has given me a new album/record collection to listen to. 

What is apparent is that on albums like Simon & Garfunkel Parsley Sage Rosemary & Thyme LP the last track side 2 Silent Night whilst S & G sing the carol centre stage an apparently momentous content 7 pm evening news news bulletin comes from the right speaker with the Musicmaster you could discern the words 10 seconds earlier & they were clearer & louder, I suspect this is due to Len only listening to classical music which he also used to voice the 1/3rd dearer Musicmaster Len was also punctilious getting phase coherence correct. Evidenced by the HFN 1 test/set up record he produced.

The Hana ML has a totally different presentation to my previous 25 + years of Musicmaker & Musicmaster cartridge's, whilst the Hana ML does not appear to dig quite as much from the grove, on most if not all albums particularly non classical the whole experience is more cohesive mid's & treble just as sweet, bass is more evident & fuller, as is the soundstage, width & height like the Musicmaster surface noise is absent I appear to have adjusted to & am enjoying this new presentation though I could still live with both.
