Any cartridges like Shure, but more exciting?


any cartridges that have the same fundamental musicality and fantastic tracking ability of the shures (even the cheap 97x and of course the v15mx) but have more musical emotional presentation? around 250 or so would be great... (i was thinking grado platinum, but i've never heard a grado track really well on the inner grooves... lots of SSS's)

If you want speed and dynamics try the Dynvector Karat17D2 Mk. II. Search ebay to find deals on new ones. Enjoy!
Dear Tapashead: I don't know which is your analog rig including phonolinepreamp but I think that the Empire EDR.9 could be a good alternative. You can find it ( new ) for less than 100dls on e-bay, I like it.

Regards and enjoy the music.
