Will Grace F9 Cart work with Rega RB250 tonearm?

Hi, all. I need your advice. I'm putting together an Origin Live OL1 (rega RB250) tonearm and a Lenco/Bogen L70, and I'm about to buy a Soundsmith OCL Ruby cantilever for a Grace F9 to use with the setup.

Before I risk spending $500 on the new Ruby needle, IS THE GRACE F9 A GOOD FIT FOR MY REGA ARM? Has anyone here tried them together?

Thanks, I appreciate any help anyone can give.

Scott

P.S.- I'm trying a Grace MM because my beloved Grados hum like mad on Lencos.

Dear Sc0ttc00ter: There are 9 Grace F-9 models that differ mainly in the stylus shape but almost all shares 12cu on compliance, so IMHO you will have no trouble with your tonearm in that regards.

Btw, the Grace F-9 is very good performer , I own 2-3 original different models ( including the Ruby one. ) but I never heard the SS after market retip.

I think that Dgarretson in the MM/MI thread posted he own the SS stylus assembly and he like it.

Regards and enjoy the music,
R.
