Cartridge suggestions for around 2K


I am thinking of upgrading my cartridge and would love to hear some of your opinions about which way to go. I am currently using a low output Grado Reference through an ARC Ref. phono pre with Aries/JMW 10. I would like to try a MC, but wonder about loading and output through the ARC as well as compatability with the JMW. I listen to a lot of acoustic music, Rock/Blues etc.

I have a Shelter 501 MII and to me it sounds better than my old Vandenhull Frog.

Here is a cool site you will like. Discussed are the best cartridges, including the Shelter 501 MII , Shelter 901,
Lyra Helikon, Vandenhull grasshopper, ZYX R-100 Fuji and many more.

This is a must read,it should answer a lot of questions for you, detailed and thorough, I hope it will help you.

I have read this fellow's reviews. IMO he's a very strange man, sort of a zealot. Too many axes to grind to be trusted.
Thanks all for responding. I have heard some good things about Dynavector (the XX-2, DRT, etc.) anyone have any experience with these carts?
Jackcob, yes Mr. SALVATORE is a little different, and that's what makes him special. His site is a must read.

I think he along with his associates hit the mark on a lot of their choices. If you do not trust them, whom do you trust?

Jackcob have you bought your new cartridge yet?
