I love the 10X4 with the P3. I originally installed a 2mm spacer for VTA. I used an old Shure test record and it surprised me when it tracked the whole record with no problems at all. I now use it most often with no felt mat on bare glass and never bothered to adjust the VTA- the high end is even more transparent. The 10x is a great buy.
Dynavector 10x4 or Ortofon X5-MC?
Probably these 2 carts have been discussed before, but I just found this site (i.e, thanks for your patience). I have a Rega P3 with RB300 and am replacing a Blue Point Special. I guess I was happy with, but never "wowed" by the BPS--maybe I found it a little edgy, I'm not sure, but its recent demise has given me the opportunity to check out other possibilities. What do you hear in these choices, and how might they compare to my BPS?
Additionally, does either cartridge offer any problems or ease in setting up in my TT? I don't mind a bit of futzing, but I'm not a tweaker. Do I need a spacer/ring with either of these, or to order anything else to set them up and go? THX for your advice.
