ZYX Universe

Here's my original Zyx Universe cart (copper .24mV, with silver base and attached nuts) that I've been using for about two years. It DOES have a slightly wonky cantilever (angles to the right) but it still sounds great and the diamond tip is super sharp (see pic I managed to grab of it), tracks well, and certainly sounds better than any other $1500 cart out there. There is nothing lacking in this cart as far as sound, it is classic Universe: super transparent, wide frequency spectrum, nice taught bass. There is no channel imbalance or sibilance. This particular cart has beat out Dynavector XV-1S, Koetsu Rosewood Plat, Benz LP, Benz LPS, and many,many others that have passed through my system. Can't say enough good things about the Universe...

While it still plays great, you should be aware that other options down the line include: trading it in to Sorasound for half off a new Universe II (or any lesser Zyx cart), or if it ever dies completely you can always have it rebuilt by Zyx (Mehran at Sorasound said it would probably be minimum $1200 fyi).

I have everything original and will cover domestic insured ground and PP fee.

Thanks,

Mike
