VPI Scout cart pairing

Trying to find out what cartridge to pair with the scout. Rock is the main thing for this TT. Also, trying to not buy a mc phono. Unless everyone thinks it's the best way to go. Hope there is some great input.

I have this cartridge paired with a VPI Scout and I am very pleased with the combination.

To clarify my earlier post, I recommended the 20Xh, which is the high output version and compatible with MM.

To me it kind of defeats the purpose of a MC cart. if you want hight output by MM or MI. If you want low output buy MC.
