Tonearm recommendation

Hi,

I just acquired an Ana Mighty Sound “Sculpture A.3M” cartridge and seeking tonearm recommendation.

Selection of tonearms are Technics epa-500 with the H, M and G wand also Reed 3p 12” with Cocobolo wand.

Thanks, Skc

With multiple wands (I also have the 250 wand) and the epa-500 tower I can change cartridges and don’t have to adjust the tracking force. Also, the 500 has one of the best VTA adjuster, same as the epa-100mkii. SKC
