Cartridge for Technics SL-1200MK2

BUT, to calculate the resonant frequency of the cartridge tonearm combo, you need to add in the weight of the cartridge and mounting hardware, and also the difference in weight, if any, between that of the headshell and the OEM headshell, assuming one is using an aftermarket headshell.  And then, you can always add mass to the ensemble to achieve a desirable resonant frequency.  Too light is never a problem with a tonearm. Stick some chewing gum on top of the headshell; works great.

What flavor do you recommend? Just kidding. You’re right. 

I found that tutti-frutti sounds best.

Maybe we should start using AI bots to generate the responses to the AI-generated response posts.  Then we wouldn't need people at all.  Isn't the point of this forum to get responses based on forum user's experience?

Appropriate price to me, is to stay somewhat in proportion to the price of the turntable. Perhaps I shouldn't think that way, but it doesn't seem to make much sense to put a $1K+ cart on a $500 table.

 As far as what I'm looking for, I'm not sure I can answer that. I'm in that blissful ignorant stage where I like what I have and don't really want to get on that merry-go -round of chasing the next best thing. That said, it's very difficult to resist the urge of bigger and better, At the end of the day, I try to do my best with a self imposed budget and keeping the better half happy. My other mitigations are that I'm shortly turning 78 and my hearing is not the best. I long for the days when I took my aptitude tests in Navy bootcamp and scored a near perfect on sonar.
