A new Question: Moving Magnet Cartridge To Compliment My Rock Collection


I am looking for a MM cartridge to work well with my VPI Prime Turntable with the 3D arm and to compliment my large Rock collection.  Presently I have a ZU/Denon DL103 MC cartridge with a bent canteliver.  I will be sending it to Soundsmith for repair and keep it as a spare.  My Rogue tube preamp accepts MC and MM cartridges.  I want to keep this in the 500-600 range new and cheaper if used.  Recommendations and why?

I am going to disagree with 2m series recommendations.  They are very nice for classical, acoustic type stuff but not for classic rock.  A little light in the bass just like the older OM series.  You can't go wrong with one of the vintage Shures for classic rock.
