@tomic601 I have no idea what you are talking about.
Which Cartrudge For My Upcoming Technics 1200 GR 2 Turnable - Looking at Ortofon 2m Black
Note: Sorry about the misspelled Cartridge in title. Wish I could update that.
I have a Luxman 595 Class A amplifier with Focal N1 speakers. Depending on the recording, it can be on the bright side. I own about 20 records. 80% of them are electronic mixes from the 90s. The rest are dinosaur jr, mazzy star, and so on.
I have found memories of playing my grandfathers fisher turntable (with Mitsubushi stereo system) which looked similar to the Technics 1200GR2, so that is the turntable I am going to get. I also have found memories of going to the record store in the 90s (sound warehouse) and they had a Bose 901 VI system (I think... they were very large hung from the cieling) with a turtable that sounded so good.
The sound I am looking for is *not a audiophile high resolving sound. Instead, I am looking for a energetic sound with power. I do want good audio quality though.
What I am looking at is the Ortofon 2m Black LVB 250 or the 2m black. I never hear them in person. What is everyones thoughts?

@tomic601 thank you for the information..
I never heard of this. Can you please explain it? |
@dman777 TMR Audio and Music Direct have return policy but you should 1) read it to understand it and 2) talk to them. MD has larger cartridge selection. They also sell Luxman and will know what works with it. |
Higher output in a MC is typically generated using more turns = higher mass with the issues that come with that. A search on high output moving coil advantage and performance tradeoffs this forum should keep you buried for days. Daze. My comment about juice is slang for output of the cartridge and gain relates to everything down stream of the cartridge. again wishing you well on the journey |
