I have a Rega Planar 3 from 1982 with a Grace 747 arm. I've been using a Supex 900E+ moving coil as the cartridge for my really musical LP's. I still use it today (39 years later) and it still is my favorite. It has the original stylus with around 1500 hours, maybe. Of course, I have a few Grado's and an Adcom CrossCoil line trace for every day listening. . The Adcom is 37 years old and still sounds good even though it is not a good choice for my arm.
