I used a 10x5 for years although on a Rega 250 arm. Great all around high output MC. Actually wore it out before I upgraded. Not to critical of loading but is a bit tall. So you may need to raise the back of the arm by a 2mm's or so.

Compared to the Grado, IMO, it will be a little less pronounced in the midrange, a bit more detailed and extended on the top end and have a tighter bass.
