What really pisses me off is that my second arm/cartridge has a very strange effect that I did not see neither in this arm (Micro 282) not in this cartridge (Ortofon SPU Classic). I am taking about dynamic compression. In fact it is very seldom you can find compression in analog. My first arm/cartridge has huge dynamic advantage over my second arm/cartridge. I have no idea where it might come from… It feels like it loaded to impedance of 100 times less than it has to be but it is not.  It loaded to 65R that is a bit low but very much within the acceptable realm… Still it has HUGE compression and I think it begin to have it last year. In my old room the same arm/cartridge did not have so much compression…
