I have a heavy headshell, counterweight and even a KAB fluid damper on the table. I think it would PROBABLY work fine but would feel better about making the purchase if I could hear from someone who is actually using this cartridge with a Technics 1200G. A serious investment for me so I am trying to get more information.

I have seriously considered buying a Miyajima Zero Mono for my 1200GAE (functional equivalent to the G). Soundsmith makes a set of mounting hardware that you can buy from Music Direct (among others) that would allow adding weight to the headshell. I am confident that this cartridge would work fine in this arm. My hesitancy is simply the high price of the Zero Mono, not that it could not be made to work. |
I have Miyajima stereo cartridge Kansui and i would never use it on Technics tonearm. This cartridge must be used on high mass tonearms like Ikeda or Fidelity-Research. The mass of those heavy tonearm are 3 times as much compared to Technics tonearm. |
I have a new miyajima premium BE that will go nicely on my Ikeda tonearm. Not for awhile though as I have other cartridges to try first. I heard it at a friends many times playing on his Fidelity Research fr64s. It sounded really great on that arm. Is mono new to you? Your going to really like it. It’s amazing hearing average sounding records with noisy ticks and pops come to life with the noise very diminished. |
