I am very happy to introduce the Charisma Audio MC-1 phono cartridge, which is now available locally. This cart have been getting a lot of attention lately mainly because of its price to performance ratio. It has been the subject of several reviews and i can personally attest that what is written is as truthful as it sounds. So if you are in the market for a high end sounding cart w/o breaking the bank, please drop by at Listening in Style to hear it in action.
