Most of us who are record devotees will experience cartridge trauma at some point. A good read regardless of current budget is this thread on the Audio Technica ART9 https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/pani-new-art-9-up-and-running?highlight=Art%2B9 Worth including on your wish list. |
@noromance dl103 or 103r for shelter 501 mk2 owner? For those who like refined cartridges the Denon 103 is on the opposite side like the Ortofon SPU. @houseofhits why not look for decent vintage MM cartridges of the highest caliber in the same $500-700 budget (such as Victor X-1 or X-2, Geace F9 or F14, Stanton 981, Audio-Technica AT-ML150 or higher)? Those MM carts will cream many expensive MC, but for much less money. |
