Any cartridge recommendations for a Grace G-707 arm on a Thorens TD-125 deck?


Obviously, an F9e would be ideal but they are the proverbial hen tooth these days.

Any recommendations for a suitable cartridge for this pair. The Grace 707 is a light arm but I have been tempted to try a Grado wooden cartridge - has anyone any thoughts on a good - and relatively affordable - model I should consider?

Thanks in advance for your opinions!

Thank you all for taking the time to provide such helpful responses. I've already begun researching them.

While I have your attention - so to speak - do you have any thoughts on a good - but affordable - tube phone preamp to plug this rig into a Parasound P7 and A21 and then Magnepan speakers. There are a lot of good-looking preamps out there so opinions on good options would be welcome.

I think you could find an F9E or Ruby with a little patience. Then get the SoundSmith prefab stylus assembly with sapphire cantilever and CL stylus.
