Best Cartridge for technics sl1200mk2

I think Kevin, of KAB, is one of the most passionate and nicest guys I've ever done biz with but, having lived with his "modded" 1210, I simply do not agree with him that the Tech is better than, for instance, a Rega 3.

While I dug the Tech, because it's cool, I never cottoned to it.

Sorry about the typo in my note...that should be johnnyb53.

Audio-Technica AT150MLX.

Surpisingly Ortofon ProS w/STY40 stylus for $369.00 pairs extremely well with the SL1200 MKII.

The advantage of the integrated design is that the arm wand, cartridge coils and cantilever are in alignment and there is no need for a headshell. These are custom assembled by KAB.

Unless.............you can find a NOS/almost new and pristine Stanton 881 MKIIs or ATML170/180 OCC.

+1 for the AT150MLX. Started out with the Ortofon 2M Blue when I first got back into vinyl. The AT150MLX is a clear improvement.
