Anyone used an SME IV with VPI Aries 2?

Thanks for the info. I checked out the the Dynavector site and Music Direct's online catalog. The XV-1s is listed in their online catalog. Just not in the small sale catalog I have.
$4000.00 WOW! That price reminds me of the TNT/JMW 10/VDH Black Beauty world I had to give up. Is there a cheaper cartridge recommended for the SME IV? I would probably upgrade the cartridge later on, if I could afford it.

Dear Gfloyd53: The Sumiko Celebration.
Btw, the SME tonearm was used to do the " voicing " of this cartridge.
So the Sumiko Celebration/SME IV is a great match combo.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Gfloyd53, in addition to the Sumiko Celebration, you might also consider the Shelter line of cartridges. I have heard that those cartridges pair well with the SME tonearms. The Shelter 90X is the best cartridge in the line, followed by the 901, and then the 501. Retail prices are $2,700, $1,500, and $800, respectively.

Thanks Rauliruegas and Cincy bob. The Sumiko Celebration and the Shelter cartridges are on my short list.

Would the Benz Micro Ruby 2 be a good match with my Aries 2 and SME IV? How would it compare to the Sumiko Celebration or the Shelter 901?
