Good sub $100 cartridge for Thorens TD 160

I have used a Orotofon Blue and Bronze. I bet the Red is really nice for $100. I wouldnt give it another thought and go for the Red.

I second the Shure 97, great value ($50) and great sound.

Dear Britishmuzik: If you can stretch a little this one is IMHO a " hell " of cartridge and to beat it you have to spend maybe 2K+:

Agree with Raul. You can do even better with a AT120e with an ATN140LC stylus which is a nude shibata for the same amount or less if you get a used at120e.

Dear Rotarius: I assume that you own or heard " face to face " the 95SA against that 120/140LC. This one combination in new condition set you back only 200.00.

Do you think that its quality level could justify its price against the 95SA quality level?. Thank you in advance.
