New Cartridge for Morch DP-6, 12", Red Dot


I'm looking for suggestions. I currently have a Clearaudio Discovery which has a dynamic compliance of 15 and a mass of 8gm, so I am thinking I probably need to stay close to those numbers for the best match with the Morch.

Dear Dave: What's wrong with your 3012?. The DP-6 is a very good tonearm and is easy to match with the Discovery.

One tonearm that I like with the Discovery is the Ikeda one.

Btw, very nice audio system you own. I don't know which quality performance has the Thorens TT. What do you think about? do you think that a change in your TT could be an improvement in your quality sound reproduction ?

I understand that you want the Moerch to have a better performance, right?. The 3012 is a very good tonearm too, maybe doing something in your TT or in your Herron phono stage can help. The Herron is a very well made unit but I'm a little worried because its RIAA deviation is a little on the high side: +,- 0.2 db.

Any way, if you like the DP-6 go for it with the Red or Yellow dot and precision headshell.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Dear Dave: Sorry to hear that evrything were destroyed.
Now if you are serious about music and I'm sure you are then my advice is that about the cartridge don't " beat about the bush and go directly to the Dynavector XV-1, you will be on music heaven with this cartridge.

Regards and enjoy the music.
