2017 may be the year for a new cartridge for my LP12


I've had my current cartridge, a Linn  Arkiv B, for somewhere around 15 years. I think it's finally due for retirement. Soliciting ideas for a replacement cartridge. The rest of my vinyl front end is  a Linn  LP12, Lingo power supply, Ekos II arm with a Kore subchasis. For the rest of my system, see my profile.

My last cartridge was a Troika, and while I know people extol their Troikas, I preferred the Arkiv B over the Troika (but the Troika was a beautiful red). I suppose a Kandid is an obvious choice; what else should I consider? Thanks all!

If Kandid is a stretch, the Krystal is available from Linn and will  slot right into your current deck nicely. I personally favor the Dynavector's and the XX2 is hard to beat at that price point!
