Would you use an Ortofon A90 on a Jelco tonearm?

  I was shocked at how much better my Ortofons performed with a Yamamota HS-4 carbon fiber headshell. The jump in performance was pretty dramatic. 

Geace HS-6 Carbon Headshell is what i like. Another one is Sony HS-160 Carbon Clad Headshell.

I saw cracked Yamamoto (around the bayonet), but it was his ebony wood shell.

My 'go-to' headshell also hdm 😎
Until people actually hear the effects this shell can make on every arm and every cartridge I own...there simply is no comprehension....

I also have a DP-500M. Based on what I’ve read regarding the TT, it’s manufactured in China by Hanpin to Denon’s specifications. A few months ago I changed out the stock tone arm to a Jelco 750SA. I have always enjoyed the way it looked and performed but felt the tone arm was the weak link. The best way for me to describe the change is, it’s now warmer and much more detailed. Plus, it now can handle any cartridge in my very small stable and keeps up with my other, a Technics SL-1210MKII w/Jelco 750SA just fine. Here is a link to see what it looks like.

 I find the compliance matching to be of the greatest importance as far as arm cartridge  synergy. Unfortunately it seems that many people do not pay that much attention to that. 

Yes, I would put an A-90 on a Jelco SA-750 tonearm. It IS a top quality tonearm, not to say that better do not exist, but $1K isn't likely to get you one.
