Other Notes: "Here’s the bottom line: Grado’s Reference Platinum isn’t a “state-of-the-art” cartridge (it could use more openness, detail, and high-frequency “air”), but it exhibits more top-tier performance attributes and delivers greater musical enjoyment per dollar than any other $300 cartridge I’ve heard. As my wife said after hearing the Grado, “When you can get this close to greatness for $300, it almost seems crazy to spend thousands more chasing incremental improvements.” Food for thought, don’t you think?" - The Absolute Sound
