Ortofon/Ear 834p

I currently have a Scout TT with a Clearaudio, Virtuoso Wood cartridge that runs through my Ear 834p phono amp. Sound is good but the audiofile in me is always looking for the next notch. I have been offered a super deal on a Ortofon Windfield cartridge (top of the line) for 1/2 normal price. I really hate to pass on this oportunity but I'm not sure my phono amp will be adaquate for this cart. It is MM and MC but I have never used a MC before and don't know the in's and outs of this setup. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. I'm clueless.

I have the Ortofon Jubilee and EAR 834P deluxe. Great synergy and sounds great.

I would say the Windfeld would be excellent as well. If you have never used the MC stage, put plenty of hours on it before coming to any final conclusions as the transformer need to break in.

let us know how the Windfeld sounds if you get it.

good luck
