would this combination work?

VPI recommends Dynavector carts for their tables, all the sound testing is done with the higher end dyna carts, but any of the line will sound very good in my experience.

Dear Ray: If like Readster post VPI do their TT/tonearm " voicing " with the Dynavector cartridges, then this is the way to go, nothing could comes close to that combination.

I already have experience with a cartridge/tonearm combination: Sumiko Celebration with SME V/IV tonearms: Sumiko choose the SME tonearms for do the Celebration " voicing ", very hard to beat and the ZYX are far from it.

Btw, Dynavector is a great cartridge manufacturer, I can recomended the: 17 D2 and the XV-1.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Hi Nrchy: +++++ " ZYX owners, these cartridges outperform many cartridges costing more and having great reputations. " +++++

It will be very interesting for Ray and for all the people in this forum that you can tell us to which cartridges ( many that cost more ) the ZYX beats, other than Koetsu.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Raul, Why don't you stop bashing ZYX cartridges. Your comments do carry much weight since you have never had a ZYX Airy2, Airy3 or UNIverse in yours system.

I thought I was the only one who noticed that... Raul always bashing ZYX and stating the Shelter 90X is much better. Well, I hapened to have a dealer familiar with the shelter line that set up my Airy 3S SB that said it smokes the Shelter. So unless you have heard them - don't bash em. I am certain there is/are better out there, but you need not bash what you have not heard. There is enough dissemination already on these threads...
