Best cart for a Michell Gyro SE/Tecnoarm combo?

Alot of people are using rega cartridges with rega arms. The Exact II is a great MM cartridge so no step up needed and is what I am using with the same table as you are with a Graham Slee Reflex Era gold phono pre. Really does a nice job on the entire frequency range. I had a grado cartridge on it and properly set up when I first got the table and I did not like it that much. I felt it was missing as well. Can,t remeber the model but it was 800 dollars new. Before the Exact II cartridge I tried the Ortophon 520 mkII I had that was about 140 bucks that sounded better than the Grado did on my table. Clearaudio wood is nice as well. I have heard Grado's on other tables that sounded much better than I had experienced. It really boils down to how much your willing to pay to know all your options and others opinions (MC/MM ?) and hopfully opinions backed with direct experience . But still in the end your sytem and ears will descide. Cheers

I went from a Shelter 501 II to a 901. Both have good synergy. I'm running it through the MM side of a Steelhead with very good result. I have the HR power supply though; and this gets you right straight out of the "somethings missing" feeling, and to a place I feel is the bare minimum starting point. I went to the Orbe platter/clamp next, and now feel I'll have to spend at least $3000.00 (on top of what I think I can get for the current setup) to better it.

I had the table/tonearm at one time and ran a Van Den Hul Frog with stellar results!
