Well Tempered Amadeus MK1 - What cartridge would you recommend

Hana SL (Shibata low-output). A lot more affordable than a Dynavector mc!

Is it fair to say $1000, give or take, is your price range? 

I have a Well Tempered Amadeus Mk. II. I'm using a Nagaoka MP-200 ($400). Don't let the lower price fool you, this cartridge has bested some famous carts in the $1000-$1200 range. You will get plenty of good recommendations, but please give this cart a listen.

Dynavector KARAT series is superior technology and much smarter design than Hana (from Excel Sound). Short Ruby or even shorter Diamond cantilever with Micro Ridge (they call it Micro Reach) is better than anything you can get from Hana. Also WT recommend Dyna, why do you think Hana is better? Just because it’s mainstream LOMC now? Dynavector is excellent MC cartridge, i tried DV23RS , DV17Ds and now got DV17D2 mk2

I've heard the dyna 17d3 on this table...seemed to match well.

i just got an amadeus mk1, currently running my trusty grace f9 ruby with line contact stylus - it is very sweet

will try my bigger hitter mc carts over the next few months - dyna xx2, benz glider, shelter 901, at art 9, zyx etc etc

so much better music maker than vpi classic 3 it’s not funny

My dynavector cartridges are all have higher compliance than most of the MC cartridges on the market. I have no idea bout WT tonearm effective mass but this is the reason Dyna was recommended to match well with this arm. 

Regarding Grace i would like to recommend 80's Grace LEVEL II Ruby, this model is much better than older F9 from the 70's. 

I want to admit that LineContact Ruby is modern SoundSmith version, not the original Grace. 

This is original Grace Ruby for LEVEL II and it's an excellent stylus, but later LEVEL II styli with Beryllium cantilevers are so much better (unfortunately very rare).
