So I know what you mean!

The Voice is nowhere near that!</p><p>I know that you don&#39;t actually even see the cartridge in normal use on a BG8002 but I also know that cosmetics in B&amp;O is a big issue to many like it is to me and I wouldn&#39;t even think of buying a cartridge at that kind of money if it didn&#39;t look <u>exactly</u> like an original MMC cartridge. </p><p><img alt="The Voice" height="600" src="http://www.sound-smith.com/cartridges/voiceona.jpg" title="The Voice" width="600" />&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8214.aspxMon, 30 Apr 2007 08:24:58 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:8214Peter0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8214.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=29&PostID=8214The boys at Soundsmith have brought out a new audiophile cartridge called the voice! I&#39;ll do an article on it tonight if I get permission. For those of us with Beogram 8002s, it could be quite an upgrade! Anyone live near them so we could get an unbiased audition?!<div style="clear:both;"></div>
