Best cart for a Michell Gyro SE/Tecnoarm combo?

I am running a Grado 'The Reference' right now and I like it but I keep reading that Grados arent supposed to sound that great with Regas or their offspring.

I do sometimes feel that the music is missing something but I just want to see what other carts people are using successfully with the Gyro SE and Tecnoarm.

I prefer something that doesnt need a step up transformer.

The rest of my system is a MX110z/MC225 combo with KLH 17 speakers (although I might be getting Harbeth C17s soon)

jaybo - are you referring to the table or the tecnoarm?

i really like what the grados are supposed to be. lush with a nice warm midrange but something is missing from my setup. i still need to get these new harbeth C17 speakers and i still need to upgrade my macs pieces to factory specs which i plan to do in the next month.

maybe i should wait to get these things done before changing carts again.

I used the michell with a rb300 arm, vdh frog and really enjoyed the combination. I moved later to an zyx airy3s and liked it even better. Both cartridges require proper tweaking of vta/vtf to get the best sound but once optimized, was very happy with the results
