Best Cartridge for my system, MC or MM ??


Hi, this is my first post.
My set up is:

Mcintosh Mc275
Mcintosh C220
Totem Hawk speakers
Marantz TT15S1 table.

I had a Clear Audio Virtuoso and am considering switching to a Dynavector 10x5.

I was pleased with the sound but was told the Dynavector would be worlds apart.

After seeing mixed reviews on both cartridges, what is your opinion on what would be best suited for my setup?

I listen to all rock, some jazz, some psych, etc..

I'm a huge fan of Dynavector and have found their carts to be neutral, revealing and very musical with a superior soundstage in comparison to others over many years. I'd suggest you consider going with the 20X2 H instead of the 10X5. It has a slightly higher output and offers superior cantilever technology. It should also do a good job of energizing your speakers as they are comparatively inefficient. It isn't even that much more money. Good luck & happy listening!
