Trying to decide on a cartridge for a new VPI Scoutmaster TT (Signature version). We've narrowed it to either the Dynavector 20X or the Grado Sonata - both of which are made in a mid-output version especially for VPI - but which?!
Grado Sonata was very musical, however, I felt that there was a brown haze over everything. It wasn't that noticeable until I compared it to my Benz LP.
I have found the less you ask of your pre, the better they sound. I would do a Dyna or Benz med. output cartridge and ue the MM input. You might have to turn up the volume control, but that's of no consequence.
