Now that I'm getting older and less inclined to fool with gear, I recommend a cartridge with a relatively large and protruding cantilever so you can get it aligned easier. These tiny cantilevers tucked in under the body are a PITA.
Cartridge replacment time
Hi All I have been using a Grado Prestige gold for many years now. I run it through a SME 3009 non detach/ThorensTD 125 MK II/Lounge LCR mk II/Manley Stingray/Usher 6371's . I should consider and thing other then a new Prestige Gold for my set up? Looking for $500.00 or under. Thanks Mike
