Any opinions on the Audio-Technica OC9ML II?

In my opinion, it is a steal. Almost ten years ago I bought one of the original ones that retailed for almost $700... and it was a good deal then. At $300 it is an exceptional bargain.

I have used it on a Sumiko MMT and FT4, as well as the PT6 arm that come on the VPI Jr... all with wonderful results.

For price it is unbeatable. A while back, I "upgraded" mine to a Benz Micro Glider at more than double the cost and went back to the OC9!

Thanks for the info - looks like I'm going to have to get one! Any idea as to what size spacer I would need on a Rega (P5) table?

This cartridge seems to be a perrenial favorite on VA. I'd really like to compare it to a 103r, as some have on VA, just to see what all of the fuss is about. But I have been so happy with the 103r that I figured why spend the $$$$. If I do break down and buy a new cartridge, it would probably be a ZYX. But there are other things that are in the works first.

I don't think you would need a spacer, but I'm not really sure. Why do you think you need one?
