recommended cartridge for ETII tonearm


Hello, I'm considering an upgrade from my Benz MC Gold. I'm wondering what other ET owners are using with what kind of results.
Cheers!

Hello Alun. I use an original koetsu rosewood [circa 1980]in my ET-2. When I had to send it to Japan for a rebuild, I used both the shelter 501 and a grado statement with very good results. The et-2 lends itself to a wide assortment of different cartridges.Hopefully others will chime in here. All the best.
Hi Alun. Yeah, nice idea in theory anyway. However,in practice... it's not really that "semi rapid" as properly adjusting the ET-2 to employ the other wands and cartridges is somewhat labour intensive and time consuming to say the least.Even more so if your working with a suspended table.I periodically swap wands between an original koetsu rosewood,grado statement and a recent koetsu rosewood red and each change is a minimum 15 minute ordeal for even the most experienced set up man.
