Stereophile Recommended Components April 2010 Clearaudio Virtuoso: $875 $$$ BJR couldn't come up with even one criticism of this wooden-bodied version of the excellent Aurum Beta S. It shares that cartridge's transparency, midrange naturalness, extended treble and bass definition, and dynamics, but adds an additional layer of detail resolution, sweetness, and subtle low level articulation, BJR decided that the VIrtuoso Wood might be the affordable cartridge for lovers ova jazz, classical, and rock music. "The performance of the Clear Audio Virtuoso Wood was so ear-opening that I recommend that anyone thinking of spending up to $2500 on a moving coil cartridge consider buying the Wood instead.
