SME Tonearm

I am having a Empire 208 TT refurbished. I also purchased a SME 3009 2 Improved to mount on the new plinth. I need advice on a phono cartridges in the $1000 range that will match up with the arm.

You will need the compliance and weight spec's of the cartridge you are considering (we have already established that the effective mass of your SME 3009 is 9.5 grams). https://www.vinylengine.com/cartridge_resonance_evaluator.php?eff_mass=9.5&submit=Submit DeKay
