I would look at upgrading your arm before the cartridge. It is easier to get better performance from a great arm and cheaper cartridge combo than a cheap arm and expensive cartridge combo.
Need Cartridge Suggestion for Michell Tecnodec
Hello, I have a J A Michell Tecnodec with the bundled Rega RB 250 arm. My phono pre is a PS Audio GCPH, with an ARC LS 25 preamp and a BAT VK55 amp.
At the moment, I am using a Dynavector 10x5, but I am feeling that it is too entry level to really make the vinyl sound amazing.
My dealer is recommending the Lyra Delos. I am intrigued by the Koetsu Urushi (and I have a friend in Japan who can help me get one for half the US price).
The truth is, I have no idea. My dealer is the one who will mount the cartridge, and I believe he does a very good job with it. But I do not have any experience mounting cartridges. I have no place to audition cartridges. So this is really sort of a blind purchase. Please Advise!
