The cartridge for some reason seems to match the Rega arm.I did a search on the Ortofon VMS 20 E Mk11 and a lot of people remember it fondly,I think one of our members Quadophile uses one.It is believed to be better than the current MM's Ortofon produces.Anyway it is actually a moving-iron type with the pole piece that comes directly back from the cantilever creating a voltage output by altering a stationary magnetic field i.e Variable Magnetic Shunt(VMS).Thus I believe it is less susceptible to spurious resonance than more traditional designs which rely directly on moving mass to create a voltage output.
