Cart for VPI Scout? Blackbird, Ruby2H, Shelter 901


Cart for VPI Scout? Blackbird, Ruby 2H, Shelter 901 ???

I have a chance to get these for around the same price.

I will be using a Pass Labs Pearl phono stage.

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

I have a question for either slipknot, dlwask, and robm321, i recently purchased a new 17D2, and am getting ready to mount it on my scoutmaster w/ jmw-9, running thru the dyna p-75, i was wondering if anyone was using the same setup, if so, are you running thru the phono enhancer mode, or just the normal low output side, and also, what is your loading set at, and what is the 17d considered, compliance wise ? also, does anyone know if the 17d is considered a low, med, or high resistance cart. ? thanks alot guys,

I guess everybody hears something different, and what sounds best to you then that is what you should go with. Personally, i feel the scout is in a different league than the rega, in every area, sound quality, build, looks. But you can't argue with personal opinion.
