i recently bought a refurbished delphi mk1 with an origin live modded rega rb300 arm (with solid aluminum arm board insert), and the sound is really wonderful. incredibly natural yet incisive and rhythmic... much more organic sounding than my significantly pricier vpi rig
New cartridge and/or tonearm for a Delphi Mk1
Hi everyone! Long time reader of this great forum (information!), recent registration. I've searched and found a few threads that are related and helpful, but thought I would throw my hat in the ring and ask a question...
I'm on the cusp of purchasing an Oracle Delphi Mk1 - I've listened to the TT but before I buy I am going to return to the shop (independent/owner has deep knowledge, cool) and listen to some of my music (PF DSM, Joe Bataan, Etta James, other). One general question: am I right that a contemporary cartridge could be used with the TT/tonearm? I need to confirm the current tonearm probably to answer this Q. But as a follow up, are there contemporary tonearms that could be fit to the Mk1 TT that I should think about for the future? If so - any thought on what would work? I'm using a Rogue Audio Sphinx phono stage. Thanks for any thoughts on these questions.
