What New Cartridge should I get for my VPI?

I just sold my Dynavector 10X5 because I like the Denon DL-103 much better. The Dynavector is by no means a bad cartridge, but there's something very special about the Denon. I don't know whether or not your husband's phonostage has enough gain to handle the Denon, but Denon makes a step-up transformer priced at a little over $100 that should do the trick. The Denon 103 is available on Ebay from a German seller for under $200 incl. shipping to the U.S. I've bought two from him and he is very fast and reliable. Good luck, Dave

I use a Dynavector 10X5 with my VPI and I am very happy with it. Very musical, easy to set up and your Music Fidelity should handle it fine. I have listened to cartridge's costing more but did not notice any improvement until going well over twice the price with low output. I highly recommend the 10x5.

If you don't want to change phonostage, get your husband a Sumiko Blackbird. Been throught the Grados and the Dyna's with the Scout and Blackbird takes the cake. Will work great with jazz, female vocals and just about everything else.
Good luck.
