cartridge recomendations


Hi 'Gonners
I am looking to purchase a turntable shortly. My current choices are down to a Nottingham Horizon or a Michell Gyro SE. My question, I need a cartridge that will work with these tables in the $300. price range-give or take a little-.I prefer a new cart rather than a used one, got any suggestions?

Look at the Grado Sonata, the Ortifon X5MC about 110 street price, or the Aurum Beta S. At the price thats about what's out there. I can't speak to the Dennon as I haven't heard one since the mid 80's but it was competitive then, and the strides in cartridge design have been pretty high.

I also hear nice things about the new Blue Point nude but I can't say as I haven't heard it.
