It’s very subjective and system dependent, but I’ve found the Nagaoka MP500 to be superb.....nude fine line profile on a boron cantilever. CDJapan offers the best pricing I’ve seen....currently $606.
What speakers are you using?
New SL1210GR enroute. Need cart recommendations
I'm getting ready to send my Fluance RT85 back. It has the Ortofon 2M Blue. I've been using their preamp but I have a Vincent PHO-300 on the way. Amp is a Willsenton R8. Speakers are Joseph Audio RM25XL.
What should I be looking at for a cartridge? Who or where should I be looking as a vendor?
I don't listen to Rap or Classical but everything else is on the table. I'm sending the Fluance back because I had a new album (Amos Lee 45 master from Acoustic Sounds) with sibilance on two tracks. As I read about the possible causes of sibilance, it led to to different tables. The 1210GR seemed to be well regarded.
Thanks for any help.
