cartridge for rega 25,Sonic Frontiers SFP-1


Looking for cartridge suggestions for a Rega planar 25 to be used with a Sonic Frontiers SFP-1. Music will be jazz, folk rock, and some classic rock. Like to keep it under $700.

Denon 103D MC cartridge, a oldie but goodie, could be called a classic, is available from Denon USA for $229. I'd also say, in case you don't know it, that Grado cartridges and Rega tables are a bad mix--hum. I know that's true for Rega 3 and it may well be true for Rega 25 too, though maybe not. At least I'd check if you're considering a Grado.

I had a Denon 103D years ago and loved it, but replaced it, as us audiophiles generally will, with something else that might well not have been clearly better. I'm getting another for a Rega 25, but haven't heard that combo yet.
