Cartridge for SOTA SAPH/SME3009II ?

I'm a dealer but it would help people to know the rest of your system. If you have a system that is very warm or bright people will suggest different combinations.

Do you have a real good dealer close to you that can help with matching? This is usually best. I know they are getting hard to find.

I like Benz cartridges over all unless your system is warm, then I like Clear Audio or Dynavector. I'm not a dealer of Dynavector but they are good.

Phono stage depends on budget. At under $500 the Project and Parasound are hard to beat. At less than $1000 the Musical Surroundings.

If you can swing $2500 the new Fosgate is jaw dropping.
Above that I love Aesthetix, Thore, and Manley.

Yes good to know the rest of the system, moreover how much you want to spend. At say $500-750, a new Denon 103 and used Lehman SE would be excellent. You have to track the 103 at the top end of its range, ie 2.5 grams otherwise it will sound like shart. Dialed in properly I have had excellent results with a similar setup.

I love my Clearaudio Aurum Beta S, however if money is a factor a Goldring 1042 will get you 90% of the way there for 1/2 the money.
