Miyajima Zero Mono on Technics 1200G

Andy on your turntable you could use Grace F14 LC-OFC MONO cartridge and this is a perfect match, the generator is true mono with just two pins. The stylus is Advanced Luminal Trace which is better for later MONO records than conical tip.

Actually many modern cartridge designers stated that advanced profile is a benefit for later MONO originals (60's, 70's) or mono re-issues. One of them is J.Carr (Lyra). 

P.S. I love Zu Mission and Mission mk2 phono cables. 

@chakster The Grace F14 LC-OFC looks great but it is really rare! Wish they still made them. I have had bad experiences in the past buying used cartridges so I am wary of buying things like this online.  Most of my records are mid 60s and earlier so I am looking for something suitable for those.  No interest in Lyra!

Yeah, i do not own Lyra too, very expensive for me, but the theory of using modern stylus profile on MONO records is very interesting. You can find more on audiogon.

I have nearly all Grace models including that MONO F14 LC-OFC, but i am not a fan of mono records, 99% of my records are stereo from 50’s to the early 80’s.

Don’t buy used, buy NOS or MINT vintage cartridges, Miyajima is not the only one cartridge for mono records. And conical tip is not mandatory for mono since the further research has been made by various cartridge designers.

In fact you can significantly improve the sound from used vintage mono records if you will play them with modern stylus profile on true mono cartridge.

If you mono records are pre 50's era then it's another story
