I had a Sonata low output and never liked it. It had a muddy character to it...maybe it was the turntable I had it on (Rega), but never the less, I sold it.
Grado cartridge for vintage setup?
Hello,
I'm in the market for a new cartridge (or replacement stylus). I'll likely stick with a Grado as I can get my Platinum re-tipped. However, I'm curious if upgrading to Sonata might be worth it ($240 for Platinum retip vs $400 Sonata retip)?
My setup:
Revolver 'table and tonearm
NAD 1020 Preamp
NAD 2140 Power Amp
JBL 18Ti speakers
In your opinions, is the Sonata overkill for my setup?
Thank you!
