Best MM?


I want to try a MM with my Herron VTPH-2a. What's the best one? Maestro 2, Zephyr III, AT VM760SLC? Something else?

Update: Have been using Ortofon 2M Black while waiting (forever) for an Audio Note IQ3 to arrive and have been really enjoying it. Bought a Signet TK7E today with the TKN14 stylus for my uncle for Christmas and decided to mount it. Haven't stop listening since. I'm pretty sure I like it better than the 2M Black. Better bass and vocals are cleaner and warmer. Doesn't handle busy passages quite as well but also overall less edgy. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to find him a replacement gift.
Hard to do better than the Signet TK-7 Series of MMs.....👍
I don’t remember if the TKN14 is the No.2 or No.3.....?
If you look at the underside of the stylus assembly you should see the No.2 or 3 embossed.
If you have the No.3 stylus....it is the Shibata and it effectively makes your cartridge a TK-7SU......
I was wrong. The 2M Black is clearly better in my system. Had some people over for listening. Compared the TK7E with their second best stylus the TKN14 and the Grace F9E and the 2M Black and it was clear to all that the 2M Black was superior. No dissenters.

I am clearing away my MM collection. Ask for the cart you want.
