@chungh I hgave owned the Sota vacuum and am very familiar with the TT and the Sumiko arm. In my view before you look at cartridges, you will get a better result if you do the following - Step 1 - get the Sota brought up to current spec - Sota will do this - their service is excellent Step 2 - upgrade your tonearm - buy the best you can afford. Sota can provide either blank or predrilled amrboards. You will have to choose a 9-10 1/2 " arm to fit the Sofa - Sota can confirm what will fit. These first steps should improve your system markedly and set you up for a very long time. Then Step 3 - you can start looking at cartridges down the road knowing you will get the best out of them with the updated turntable and tonearm. A great arm with a modest but good cartridge will always sound fundamentally better than an expensive cartridge on a cheap arm. |
Triplanar will fit on a Sota Sapphire - https://www.stereophile.com/tonearms/the_tri-planar_tonearm/index.html Also no problem Cosmos or Millennia either. In the old days Wheaton used to supply precut armboards for Sota’s.. All you need to do is order a blank armboard. mark it up and get a machine shop to cut it for you if you cant do it yourself. |
