"Harder" cartridge recomendation

After some time with EMT TSD15SPH, which is basically my first serious cart (along with it's EMT930 platform and 929 arm), I comeback to the question of finding something faster, "harder", more transparent perhaps but I do like "bigger sound". I'm mounting a second arm on 930: SME3012R and I'm looking for a fast cart in 1-1.2kEU range. Phono is a diy 834 with Tribute nano crystal SUT's.

I've been looking at SPU Royal N, but IIRC EMT somehow derives from the SPU family, so it may or may not be what I have in mind.

Any opinions? Thanks,
bydlo

Hello Bydlo,

Since T-bone was living in Japan and his real name is Travis ........

BTW, if T-bone says it's a good combo, it is. Maybe he will see your question and respond.

Good luck in your search!

Hello Lewm, I thought because "Travisty" was from Tokyo that it was T_bone. I am sorry if I was incorrect and they are different people.

The post from T_bone (Travis) was from Bydlo on 7/30.

Hello Audpulse, Raul explains his position very well, in his own words, on the " Is vinyl rig only for oldies" thread.

He thinks digital has less distortion.
