Tonearm recommendation


Hi,

I just acquired an Ana Mighty Sound “Sculpture A.3M” cartridge and seeking tonearm recommendation.

 

Selection of tonearms are Technics epa-500 with the H, M and G wand also Reed 3p 12” with Cocobolo wand.

Thanks, Skc

Westcoastaudiophile, I prefer the epa-500 with multiple wands than the epa-100.

With multiple wands (I also have the 250 wand) and the epa-500 tower I can change cartridges and don’t have to adjust the tracking force. Also, the 500 has one of the best VTA adjuster, same as the epa-100mkii.

Veridian, the G wand was made “almost” specifically for the Denon dl 103 but the Reed is a little heavier and has a very wide rage of VTF weight adjustment.

I believe that the Ana Mighty cartridge is a little heavier than the original donor.

The G wand with a dl-103 cartridge pushes the VTF counter weight at 80-90% of its range.

I have a Luxman pd444 turntable with both tonearms installed.

Just wondering which tonearm or wand might work better with the Ana Mighty cartridge.
