The Audio Technica AT95, Ortofon 2M Red and the Nagaoka MP110 are all solid choices on the cheap...
Best cheapo Cartridge
In a bind, I have 2 cartridges that have seen better days. My Ortofon Jubilee has at least 1500 hours on it and I’m starting to hear a drop in performance. My Transfiguration Proteus only has 450 hours but is on the fritz and they are OOB.
I have too many irons in the fire to spend alot and need one to hold me over for a while. Thinking about a MM, like Ortofon or Grado. Would be mating with a Basis Vector 4 tonearm, Basis 2200 sig, and either Allnic H3000 or ARC PH 5. Speakers are Thiels.
Analog heads please give me some advice. I have no experience with MM or MI or than many cartridges in my system for that matter.
