I am now looking for the best cartridge to match with the Triplanar.
It's a silly question if you think there is one "best" cartridge.
Here is the article for you.

There are ''some'' very respected member from some ''developing countries'' like Australia (but not Dutch New Zeeland) who are convinced that an FR-66 s ( the heavier kind than 64S) can be used for whtever cart. That is for MC's as well for MM's. Seeing the issue in this CONTEXT your question looks silly. |
Lenco tables are very popular with Decca/London pickup fanatics. I see no reason why the Triplanar wouldn’t be a good mate for any of them. All pickups benefit from an arm with a very stiff tube and rattle-free bearings, but none so much as the Londons. They have no cantilever or suspension, and dump a LOT of mechanical energy into the arm. Londons have a startling "alive" sound, very dynamic and immediate. They are like a good horn loudspeaker in that sense. The Super Gold (with the optional Decapod mounting system) will cost you about $1500, the Jubilee about twice that, the Reference a little over five grand. |
