The Sumiko Pearl is crazy good at 125 bucks, but too inexpensive for those seeking an ego booost from spending more.
Need low price cartridge for Scoutmaster
So the needle of the Ortofon 2m blue came out on my Scoutmaster with a JMW tonearm (not super or signature)and I want something inexpensive. I thought about the dynavector 10x5 but wonder if even a Denon dl-301 would sound good. The price of the DL-301 is very agreeable, but what the result?
I have the first Phonomena phono stage, VPI TT wires, 14 year old Rotel amp and pre-amp, B&W CM-2 speakers, a Definitive Technology Supercube subwoofer, Cardas Neutral Reference speaker cables, with Transparent Audio and Audioquest interconnects.
I realize my system outranks buying a cheap cartridge, but I no longer can work, so I cannot spend big $ on audio equipment.
