MC Cartridge Suggestions?


Hello out there:

I'm shopping for a MC cartridge to mount on a Rega P 25 with a RB 600 arm. I listen to Blues, Jazz, Classical, and Vintage Rock & Roll (in about that order). The rest of the system is a Rega MC phono stage, LFD Mistral SE integrated amp, Analysis Plus Oval 9 Cables, and Talon Audio Khites.

A friend with classical and acoustical tastes suggested Koetsu Black, Goldring Elite, or Dynavector 17DII.

Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

You really owe it to yourself to check out the Shelter cartridges. Direct from Japan, the 501 Mk2 goes for around $650 and blows anything near its price range (and many quite a bit above it) away. I know RedRose Music in New York and Wavelength Audio are both selling them. You can get more info by doing a search www.audioasylum.com, or checking out www. hi-endaudio.com
