| Sony PS-X50 - MC cartridge advice please (and general MC cartridge advice) Thanks @jasonbourne52 . Will my Sony PS-X50 suitably accept the mentioned MC cartridge.

| Parasound Preamp I've got the Parasound "New Classic 200" pre (not integrated) going into a Parasound "Zone Master 2350" power amp. For my money (which is all of it ..) sounds wonderful. Great soundstage, all over the place. | |
