Best Cartridge for technics sl1200mk2

I have these decks since 1998 and it was my dj set-up for ages. All cartidges i have tried in the beggining were total crap in terms of sound (but it was very long time ago).

The best hi-end cartidges i have tried later and liked very much on this deck were:

1) MM Technics EPS-100cMK3
2) MM Technics EPS205cMK4 (both headshell integrated).
3) MM Denon DL-107 (with Orsonic headshell or Audiotechnica Magnesium headshel ala Technicard)

4) the winner: MC Audio-Technica ART-2000 (limited edition) - probably the best cartridge, sounds amazing even on cheap technics sl-1210 tonearm with Kab Fluid Damper.

After all upgrades i've done to my SL-1210 i have just bought another much better turntable and i'm more happier now with Technics SP-10 mk2 with Technics EPA-100 or Thomas Schick tonearms (on my plinth i can use "9, "10'5 or "12 arms easily). But it's not the end, so many thing to try ...

Those old Technics MM carts were excellent. I wish I had bought one when they were around.

********* Doesn't the Zu Audio modded Denon 103 cart require a totally different tonearm to be mounted on a Technics 1200 series TT in order to get the best sq out of it? That was the impression I got when looking at the Zu Audio Denon years ago.

You're right, Zu DL103 or stock DL103 or 103r are all very low compliance cartridge. You need heavy tonearm to work with low compliance cartridges. That's why Zu Audio use Audiomods Tonearm made in UK on their modded technics sl1210 mk2 decks. Audiomods is actually improved rega arm!
