Personally, I would, and have put a cartridge of equal value of the turntable on my system before to good effect. But I would also consider @mijostyn ’s comments about high output MC cartridges.
Sumiko Songbird (High Output)/Music Hall MMF-5
Currently using the stock, Goldring (1012 GX?) cartridge. I’ve loved the SQ but lately the Goldring seems like it’s getting a little worse for wear. Would the Songbird be a good upgrade or one of those “Rolls Royce hood ornament on a Nissan Maxima” sort of moves?
Thanks in advance.
