Recommendations for MM Phono ~ Tube or Solid State

As title suggests, I am currently using a MC Cart - Etsuro Bordeaux and planning on adding an SUT. The TT is Garrard 301 with Reed 3P tonearm.

SUT under consideration,

1) Etsuro ET-U50

2) Swissonor PPP-PP Hashimoto HM7

3) EMIA Copper or Silver version

On top of my list is Leben RS-30EQ and Accuphase C-47.

Also planning on adding 2nd Reed tonearm with Miyajima Labs Zero or Infinity Cart. From a purist perspective, what would be your recommendation to get the best out of a mono cart.

Thank you!

I can’t think of anything nice to say to either of you but particularly to Pinhead. So I will say nothing.

I suggest considering Whest Audio. The 60se pro is phenomenal. Also the lower tier model. Hard to bit for the price. I’m not sure how much they would cost in America.

Thanks for your recommendation. Whest Audio is now added to my audition list.

Don't be fooled by the low cost, my CORNET MM is high performance and plays nicely with SUT because input capacitance is under 10pF.

@lalitk   " in one off bespoke products."

 

Some way or the other at some time all audio products are " bespoke ", some through audio distributors  some as direct sale.That's why exist the customer testimonials of all audio products.

 

" suggesting a product that pretty much unobtainable. "

 

Not really because is obtainable and through it the Etsuro signal could goes " directly " to the Accuphase amplifier with no single " curtains " in between but only the MUSIC cartridge signal.

Just for curiosity you can achieve information here:
