AR XA turntable needs new cartridge...


Hi -

This deck has been in use for some time with little upgrade. I got it used and it had a Shure m97xe cart. It was fine for a few years, but now I'd like to upgrade to a better cartridge and would like to stay under $200, if possible. It would have to pair well with the original metal arm. Does anyone have any recommendations in this regard, any experience with same turntable and a modern cart that really shines? thanks for any suggestions here...

Actually, I am definitely considering upgrades to this deck. In this regard, does anyone here know of reputable techs that do this sort of work, specific to these ARs? thanks again...

Thanks everyone for your input and suggestions. Will have to consider these options carefully. Perhaps some turntable upgrades and tweaks are in order at this point as well...
