BAPHEX 204 AURAL EXCITER

Has anybody heard of this or used one?  Kevin at KAB suggested it when I asked him about a cartridge ugrade for my TT.  Kevin is a no BS guy and I generaly respect his opinion but I don't want to foul up my sublime chain of Decware gear either!  :)

Archie - you will be better off buying the Ortofon Black Cartridge than this Aural Exciter. I do mix FOH and have been in pro (or semi pro) sound for a long time and no one I know in the business would add this to their rack,  much less their home system. Pass, IMHO. Happy listening, Chris.

hrider -- I had the feeling that this was not something I would want but Kevin at KAB generally has good advice.  

I'm doubling down on my vinyl and I'm hoping to bring my front end more in line with what follows.

Thanks!

I think you are making a quantum leap on your front end.
