Cartridge recommendations

Hey Droz............Are you hearing any significant difference between your Cronus' built-in phono stage and the Project Tube box ??? To my ears, the MM phono stage in the Cronus is really, really good, and works quite well with mid-priced MM cartridges. My Rega Exact 2 sound absolutely great with my Rega arm and table. In your price range and on your Project table, you might want to check out the Ortofon 2M series. I agree with Dougdeacon that a moving magnet is the way to go for you. Save the $$$ and buy more LP's !!
Good Luck, and Happy Listening !

Not sure about your Project, but, for what it's worth, I can tell you that I never had a hum or dance issue with a Grado Master (high output) on either the Space deck, original AR, or, Well Tempered Super tables.

I would be very happy with an MM cartridge given all my considerations, and I appreciate the Ortofon 2M and all the other recommendations. I switched to the Project Tube Box when I got the Denon 110 which has an output of 1.6mv. With that cartridge it seemed that the output from the Rogue Cronus phonostage did not work the best, and I have seen an improvement with the Tube Box SE-II.

Me too!
I don't know what's this supposed Grado hum and dance issue

Curio, The Grado cartridges are not known for great shielding so if your turn tables motor is not shielded you'll get a hum especially as the cartridge moves closer to the motor. I've had several tables which you simply could not use a Grado on and, conversely several where they were no problem at all. FWIW.
