I just got a good deal on a VPI scout. My question is what ia a good choice for this unit. it has the #9 tone arm.
i'm looking to spend no more then $800.00

i can run a MM or a MC
Thanks for your help.....

It is important to match the catridge to the phono preamp as well as the table. It may be worth while to call a reputable dealer and ask advice based on table, preamp, speaker, listening preference, astrological sign, etc. If you read the interview in the last issue of hi-fi+ with the owner of van den Hull you may get some food for esoteric thought.

Good luck!
