Upgrade to moving coil advice


Hi all,

i’m thinking of trying a moving coil cartridge as I’ve only used MM cartridges for the last sixty years or so. My turntable is the VPI classic four with the 12 inch arm. My preamp is a C2600 from McIntosh.. my current cartridge is a Ortofon Black MM. I’d like to spend under $1200. What cartridges that you’ve tried would you suggest?

many thanks,

joe

I would suggest a Denon 103 to start with....and after listening you can have it modified by ZU(about $200) which brings it to another level of sound quality. It's a lot less expensive than the Dynavector and is equal to the Dyna's sound
