MM, MC, or MI cartridge

Can somebody briefly describe the difference in the sonic characteristics of these types of cartridge, if possible?

I’ve never had a MC and I’m wondering what difference it would make.

Wait a week or two. Not that I think you will ultimately be disappointed at all.

A new better cartridge does great things for your existing vinyl. Every new cartridge I have ever owned has sounded much better with time in comparison to my initial impression. From the reviews it is an excellent balance between detail and romance. Sounds like you made a great choice.
