which would you replace first?


My father is looking to improove his Vinyl set-up which consists of Soutmaster (STOCK) a Benz MC cart (the $600 model...red "ACE"?) and a Musical Surroundings Phonomena stage with Kimber Hero cables. Between the stage and cart what would give most bang for the buck in the $1500 price range if we only want to replce 1 of the 2 at this time. Thanks as always...............HAPPY NEW YEAR

I'd replace the entire Scoutmaster/JMW-9 combination.

It is an incredibly underachieving component.
Once again Bill you cloud the waters but it aint gonna happen.....focus man!! :) (you know I love ya Bill)
Thanks guys, Steve my dad's dealer doesnt stock that line and I know he will want to do business with John R. any ideas of carts he carries....I will call you when back in Ohio.
Right back at you Chaz but no mid-fi and above cartridge will ever perform well in that arm.

Happy new year.
