Audio Technica AT-OC9ML/II Questions

Would the AT-OC9ML/II cartridge be a good match for a ClearAudio Satisfy Carbon tonearm on a Performance SE table? It seems to be a very good value, especially for the sale price at LP Gear, and it would leave me some money towards a good used phono stage (any suggestions?) that would handle MC.

If not the AT-OC9ML/II, then what cartridge & compliance rating would work well with the Satisfy Carbon arm? The compliance rating issue is kind of confusing to me at this point. Thanks in advance. BTW, I listen primarily to 60s, 70s, & 80s soft rock, rock, jazz, & some country also.

I don't know about the Satisfy, but I have one mounted on my Scout and absolutely love it. I too bought one from LP Gear to compare it to my Denon DL-304 and the AT sounded better, to my ears, in every respect. I did have to add a three gram VPI headshell weight for some more mass and that really made the AT sing. Outstanding cart IMHO.
