I recommend Ortofon cartridges, and we have an SME 20/3 with Ortofon Cadenza Black as our reference turntable setup. Ortofon cartridges have a little peak on the top that also helps to adjust azimuth, if the tonearm does not support rotation along its horizontal axis (roll). We use Dr. Feickert's Adjust+ to measure and calibrate cartridge phase / azimuth, and Dr. Feickert's protractor for alignment and overhang.
Catridge for sme 30/2
I am planing on upgrading my turntable from rega rp8 to sme 30/2.
looking for recommendations for catridge to pair with turntable. Budget is between 2k-4K.
phono stage is ayre l-5xe.
I have been playing records for over 30 yrs but my technical knowledge in setting up table is bad. That’s why I have been using plug and play turntables . This would be my first venture into this level of analogue and am a willing learner .
Thank you in advance .
