Budget MC cartridge for a Rega P3 &Supratek Syrah?
Hi All,, I think I've decided to stick it out with both analog and my Supratek Syrah, and that means that my current AT 440ml MM cartridge just won't cut it, I need a moving coil. On my short list are, a Denon 103R, a Dynavector DV10x5, and a AT 109C. Which of these would you recommend or is there something I'm missing. I'm on a very tight budget, I'd really like to keep this under $200. Also I have no idea how to install a cartridge, but luckily I live nearby Deja Vu Audio, Vu is very cool and has done repairs for me in the past and I'm sure for a small fee they would do the setup for me. Does this sound like a sound plan? I'm all ears. For reference the rest of the system is a pair of Cary 300B Sig monos and a pair of Alon Lotus SE MKIII's. Thanks.
Another great cartridge in your price range (well, pushing it about $90) is the Audio Technica OC9MLII. This is a great MC cartridge and sounds great on a Rega. I've used both the AT OC9MLII and the Denon DL103R on my Rega P25 and its a virtual tie for really great sound. I love them both. You can find the AT for $289 here in the US and the 103R for $259 from audiocubes in Japan.
