What are your top 5 (or so) favorite MM carts that are readily available new. Cost is not a restriction but mentioning it, for the unitiated, would be nice. No used or out of production carts please. Thanks
The Nagaoka MP500 replaces the MP50 and is currently in production. The MP500 is reputed to be a little better. I haven't heard it. The MP50 is a nice sounding cart.
I really don't have any first-hand experience, but the Garrott Brothers business is alive and well in Australia, and they make an interesting range of MM or MI cartridges that are also worth consideration. And I am shocked, shocked I tell you, that no one has mentioned Grado.
