Much like looking for speakers to match an amp, it feels like finding a cart to match a phono stage is doing it in the wrong order. Find a great cart (or speaker) that you love, and then match your amplification to that.
Best cartridge match for my Phono Preamp
I have a Musical Surroundings Phonomena II+ and would like to know if anyone has suggestions on a great cartridge that matches well with the preamp. My turntable is a Music Hall MMF 5.1 with a Magic 3 cartridge (Ortofon). I also have a Grado Prestige Green, but I've not switched out this cartridge yet.
