Best Cartridge for Raidho D3 - Atlas, GFS, PC1-S


I am building a system and am down to the cartridge selection. I own the Raidho D-3's powered by the Soulution 501's and am looking for the cartridge that will work well with this combination.

The D-3's have a mid-bass pronouncement at about 60 to 80 hz so I am looking for a cartridge that is flat to lean in this area. I am looking for exceptional transparency, neutrality, speed, and dynamics (including micro-dynamics). I feel all 3 of these carts are all exceptional in these areas.

Beyond these attributes, I am curious about how people would compare them in the low-bass, mid-bass frequencies or certainly if anyone is running vinyl with the D3's please share your preferences??

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Albert I was going to suggest the exact same two cartridges. I own both and my opinion on them mirror yours.

Good Listening

I'm in agreement with Albert and Peter about the Etna cartridge but you might also consider the ZYX Diamond Gold Cartridge which is a little leaner than the Etna at 60 to 80 hz. Best of Luck
Thanks very much for your input. I am actually somewhat leaning toward the Atlas.

I guess it would have helped if I had also disclosed more of my system. I have the ARC Ref 10 Phono, the Soulution 721 Pre (no onboard Phono), the Acoustic Signature Ascona and I am planning on the Graham Elite. I have the Odin 1 phono cable and the rest of my wires are Valhalla 1 and 2.

Thanks for any help people can provide.
