Peeweekiwi,
If you're looking for a current production model with the attributes you describe, I think you should look at Nagaoka.

Need New MM Cartridge Recommendation
Hello All!
I need a recommendation on a new moving magnet phono cartridge.
Here's my system:
Roksan Radius 5 (I think MK1 or 2) turntable
Creek Evolution 100A integrated amplifier with Creek Sequel MM board
PSB Imagine T2 loudspeakers
The Roksan came with a Roksan Corus Black MM cartridge, which was likely a Goldring manufactured cart. It was great! The stylus broke off after about 8 years use.
I was wondering about the following but am open to all recommendations:
Clearaudio Maestro (yikes! It's $1200)
Ortofon 2m Black
Goldring carts similar to Corus
Audio Technica AT150MLX
Any insight and recommendations will be super appreciated!
PS: Sequel 40 mk2 MM Phono pre-amp is the device specifically suited for most types of Moving Magnet cartridges, with an output between 3.5 to 5mV and a matching impedance of 47k Ohms.

I need to force myself to remove Stanton 980 LZS that i currently use with ZYX CPP-1 (cryo Pre-Pre Amp) on Reed 3p. Never expected that Stanton can be so good, love the sound. |
Dear peeweekiwi: I think you have many options to choose and depends on your budget. These are all very good performers ( you can't go wrong with either. ) at very fair prices: https://www.audiogon.com/listings/cartridges-sumiko-blackbird-homc-one-owner-low-use-serviced-by-nee... https://www.audiogon.com/listings/cartridges-linn-akiva-low-output-moving-coils-cartridge-lyra-koets... https://www.audiogon.com/listings/cartridges-dynavector-xx-2-mkii-2016-04-11-analog-01227-dalton-ma Regards and enjoy the music, R. |
