My Ortofon MM Red cart seems to emphasize surface noise. Does anyone know of a decent cartridge [under $1000 please] that tends to reduce surface noise, particularly slight scratches? Yes, I use a record cleaner.
Check out the new Schiit Skoll phono pre amp. Someone did a comparison of the Mani 2 vs the Skoll and posted some vinyl rips over on the schiit section of head-fi.org and the skoll had significantly lower surface noise.
