Cart for VPI Scout? Blackbird, Ruby2H, Shelter 901

Thanks for the replies.

Yes, the 901.

I can't get and deals on the Dynavectors, so those are out.

I was also looking into the Sumiko Celebration.

The 901 is the best of the bunch however you need a arm with good lateral stability and the JMW 9 being a unipivot is not the best match. You could use it on your arm for a while and maybe swap it out for an OL silver Tonearm at some point. That cartridge is so good you might even consider getting a different table for it.
This again depends on your connections and how good a deal you can get.

Thank you!

How about a Benz Ebony LP?

Dear Matt: What are you looking for ? Which are your music/sound reproduction priorities? Which musical genre do you listen ?.

I 'm owner or was a owner of those four cartridges: Sumiko Celebration, Shelther 901, Ruby 2 and the LP.

These cartridges have different sound reproduction presentation. I really like the Celebration and the Ruby 2, hands down the 901. The LP is a top performer but a little idyosincrasy.

Regards and enjoy the music.

I also use the Dynavector 17DmkII. I know you mentioned getting a deal. But if one matches better than the other...
