Hi Rugby1, My suggestion is Benz Ruby 3 S (FG). This cart has the same 'motor' as the LP but different wood body (Bruyere). The letter 'S' is not correct according to me
because the stylus is (FG) Fritz Geiger latest stylus wich
is also used by J. Allaerts and is similar to Ortofon Replicant. However this cart is 'much' cheaper then the LP . I use this cart with Triplanar VII and have nothing to complain about.
Regards,
