Ok yeah. Just put on Miles Davis "Kinda Blue" and yeah....this baby has some bass. Not exaggerated or bloated bass but a more natural bass. This cart sounded good out of the box with new vinyl, then switched to older vinyl and the tics and pops where exposed...then after run in and stylus loosened up a bit, the tics and pops disappeared on the older vinyl. Excellent tracker in the groves....excellent mids... compared to the 2M Red, the 2MR was brighter. On Kinda Blue the bass notes never sounded like it was coming from over in the back to the right. Now it does. I hear harmony with both Coltrane and Cannon ball's sax at the same time. I never noticed that before. Bill Evans piano seems to becoming from the left beyond the speaker...this is amazing!
