I am using an Ortofon Kontrapunkt B in an Ittok with excellent results. I don't think you will have a problem with the B in the Ekos. You may want to contact Mrstereo, a member who sells cartridges and has had much experiences with compatibility (of vinyl).
Ortofon Jubilee on Ekos II - comments?
I'm looking at an Ortofon Jubilee cartridge for my LP12/Ekos II. Linn says that a cartridge for the Ekos II should weigh between 3 and 9 grams and the Jubilee weighs 10.5 grams. Will this be a problem?
I am also considering:
Lyra Helikon
Transfiguration Spirit
Benz Micro Ruby 2 (for $1800 with trade in)
Associated equipment:
Linn Linto phono stage (64 dB of gain)
Plinius SA102 amp M16 pre
Verity Audio Parsifal Encore speakers
any comments?
thanks for any advice,
gb
