Lyra makes a cartridge specifically for mono:

I enjoy mono recordings with my stereo cartridge. In fact, I find some sound better, in many ways, than stereo. I read somewhere recently that jazz, in particular, is made for mono (or was it, mono is made for jazz?). My original mono LP of "Time Out" has a much more focused sound. The instruments have much more weight and tonal quality.
