I think the matching of the tonearm and cartridge might
perhaps be the critical factor in determining which of these three is best in an
absolute sense
Yes, this can be important when you listen very often and you want to keep your
cartridge alive for a longer time. Anyway, taste is different and like rolling a
dice. From the technical side, go for the one from those 3 which
- is minimum weight overall
- has the strongest cantilever
- has the highest VTF
