Cart for VPI Scout? Blackbird, Ruby2H, Shelter 901

i used a celebration with my scout, and do now with my scoutmaster. what can i say that already hasn't been said (do a search) here and other places? just a terrific cartridge and a perfect match for the jmw9. and with .5mv output, pretty easy to match with a phono pre, yet you get many of the same benefits you'd get with a lower output mc. anyway, i doubt you'd be sorry with it.

Ok, I think I have narrowed my choice to a Shelter 901, and ZYX R100 Fuji FS.

I listen to mostly Jazz and Classic rock. What would be the better choice? I also want a superb tracker. Mistracking really bugs me.

Cableplex: 901 over the Ruby 2?, I can't believe it.

Well.., which are your music/sound reproduction priorities? what are you looking for ? why you arrive to that choice?

Regards and enjoy the music.

Cableplex: I read your post in a thread about the 103. Now I can understand your choice.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Hi Raul,

What would you recommend? I want an excellent tracker, with beautiful, resonant midrange. I keep reading how the Ruby 2 was too colored. I had a brand new Ruby 2H in my hands today, I ended up selling it.

I'm a bit lost at this point, even considering a Koetsu Rosewood standard.
