Going from MM to MC


I have a linn table with an akito2 arm I just replaced the preamp with a rogue rp7 and bought a pro ject phono box DS3B phono preamp.  I am also going to get new phono cable from linn with the xlr ends on it. Right now I have an adikt on my table. I want to go to MC  to get better detail and seperation. I have been researching Cartridges and have narrowed it down to 3  the linn Krystal the lyra delso or the ortofon quintet S black. My Lin repair person is trying to get me to go  with the linn but I have herd the other 2 have better sound  any advice.where to go or even a different one all together  and why thank you Michael.

Just buy a Hana SL for $750. This has a superior Shibata wide-contact profile for better tracing and extended life. 

@asvjerry : You are correct! I had forgotten about the SL-10! I only encountered it once years ago when I was buying some tubes from a fellow that had one. He showed me his SL-10 and told me it came with an  mc cartridge. I was surprised!
