Shelter 501 mk 2/ ZYX R100H


Before I spend a lot of money on the Shelter 501 mk2 (850usd)i like to know if the ZYX R 100H (the black one) is a better Pickup it´s a littel more expensive (890usd).

When you get a chance to break your cartridge in, do report back and let us know how it sounds. What cartridge did you own previously? I look forward to your assessment.

I found the Shelter 501 mk2 to be overall the best cartridge I have owned, being organic, dynamic, detailed, very open and clear without ever sounding harsh or fatiguing. Haven't heard the ZYX so I can't compare.
