MC cartridge High output vs Low output

The fundamental concept behind them all is lower mass improves precision tracking. The magnets in a MM design are a lot more massive than high output MC

MM cartridges are not the same, there are many amazing MM with extremely low effective mass such as Technics P100 mk4 or Audio-Technica AT-ML180 ... 

Thanks! Will read the reviews on these MMs. Before I started looking at MC models I was considering Ortofon 2M bronze or black.

Here we go again. Effective mass or tip mass or moving mass cannot be the whole story, because if it were then moving iron cartridges would sound the best. Moving iron cartridges not moving coil cartridges, have the lowest moving mass as a group. I agree with whoever it is that’said by and large low output versions of moving coil cartridges sound better than their high output version. Furthermore, I prefer the best moving magnet and moving iron cartridges over any high output moving coil cartridge that I have ever heard. There are several threads on this issue and all of us have said all of this before.

@discodrom If you are looking at the 2M Black, consider the Audio Technica VM750SH or VM760ML. Quieter in the groove than the Ortofon.

Thank you!
