Cartridge for a vintage Sansui table/arm


Hi All,

Looking for a recommendation on a cartridge for a vintage Sansui 2050 arm/table. I don’t really understand all the issues re: ideal compliance and weight. This will be playing through an Audible Illusions Modulus 2D with 28db of gain in the phono and 30db addl. In the line stage for a total of 58 db of gain. Loading is fixed at 47k ohms.

The rest of the system is a 30 watt Music Reference amp and Proac 1sc speakers, Max budget would be $500 but I would greatly prefer to spend less. I also want something very midrange oriented (along the lines of Spica TC-50 speakers if that makes sense).

I have a pdf of the brochure and manuals but can't figure out how to post them.

Thanks,
Wes

I second the Shure 97, great sound and value. If you search you will find them for $50. Why spend more?
