Dear Ken: First than all: " my hat off " for this self design TT achievement:Paramount Congratulations!!!!!!!
When you already make all the set-up and run for a while I really appreciate that you could share with us your point of view about its quality sound reproduction that I'm sure will be stellar.
Anyway, I have an experience with the 90X, the Koetsu and the 507 but with that kind of platform I think my advise about can't tell you very little. Those cartridges have a different signature sound that could change depending on the tonearm/TT/phonolinepreamp where is running.
I think that you have a great opportunity ( and great fun ) to test/try those cartridges each one with each tonearm and decide, according your music/sound quality priorities, which one belongs to which one, like almost everything in audio the " magic " word is: synergy. I think that you are the best judge about.
Again, congratulations: you finished and transform in reality one of your audio dreams and this achievement there are only a few people that could make it. Bravo!!!! I'm proud to be part of this forum where we have people with that high end talent, like you.
Regards and enjoy the music.
Raul.
