@bpoletti You should considering ART-2000 on top of the AT-OC9/II and AT-OC9/III The ART-2000 has the same size/shape, but it was limited edition model, great cartridge: https://www.audio-technica.co.jp/atj/products/cartridge/at-art2000.html
AT OC9/II vs AT OC9/III
I have been using an OC9/II for years. (I tried a Lyra Clavis da Capo with "mixed" results.) I'm interested in opinions of those who have owned or listened seriously to both comparing the two. Is there a difference? If so, what characteristics differentiate the two? Is one better than the other? Is there any reason to spend the extra on an OC9/III?
The cart will be mounted in a JMW-12 arm on a VPI Aries (Extended) running into a Herron VTPH-2a phono stage.
