It is said that the skill of a sculptor is not in creating, but rather in removing, as the work of art is already enclosed in the piece of granite. In High Fidelity it's the same thing. With the combination Cymbal / cartridge you try to remove the "material" in excess (the background noise and rustling) to get as close as possible to what the author of the melody you are listening to, transmit live. In this quest for purity, the balance between each component of your system plays a fundamental role, just like the cables that connect them.
