1976-1981 or so: Hitachi P38 DD turntable with a Grado Z3+ cartridge--the top line just before Grado came out with the twice-as-expensive Joe Grado Signature series. That was a great-sounding combination.

2007-Present: Technics SL1210M5G with Audio Technica AT150MLX and presently AT150Sa. Feeds all-tube PTP handwired MAGI Phonomenal phono stage feeding all-tube handwired MAGI line stage.

M91ED?

M91ED?

Sorry Larry, sloppy typing on my part. My first stereo was an Altec-Lansing 911A compact system. The included turntable was a Garrard SL95B fitted with a Shure M93, a bonded. .4x.7 mild elliptical. A couple years later I upgraded the cartridge to a Shure M91ED, a more expensive cartridge with .2x.7 nude elliptical stylus ($50 in 1973, $511.23 in today's money).

johnnyb53,
Very nice stuff for the time and certainly by my standards then!  My first stereo was a nondescript Panasonic component system, component in the sense that it had four parts, a receiver, a pair of speakers, and a mini-turntable that had one of those cartridges with the needle that flipped over, playing 33's/45's with one side and 78's with the other.  The next turntable was a used AR XA that got an M91ED in 1972.  The M91ED was the not only the smallest part of the system that replaced the Panasonic but, since it was the only part I bought new, the most expensive.

VPI HW-19 MK 4 with Sama and ET- II arm
Garrard 301 totally refurbished with Ortofon T-110 arm 

The last two I currently own and enjoy.  The Garrard is a particular joy because it is as fun just to look at as it is to listen to.
