I was able to get a lightly used Linn Arkiv on Audiogon for under $750. Remember, when the Linto was originally made, Linn's best cartridge was the Arkiv. I did not have an immediate need to change my cartridge, though. I believe that another company made the cartridge-so that might be an avenue(used?)to explore. Dynavector cartridges are used on many people's LP 12's, but I would double-check to see if they mate well with your Linto(Linn, Naim, and Vinyl Engine have sites for these discussions).
Need cartridge advice for an LP12
I've been assembling a analog front end and now am in search of a cartridge. I've got an LP12 with an Ekos arm and a Linto phono stage. The rest of my system is comprised of tube electronics. I have a $750 budget and was thinking about a Dynavector 20X low output. Anyone have any thoughts on the synergy? Any others that I should be looking at?
Thanks
