Hi Tony, what VFT do you use on the MK II. Also does it like tail up or tail down. Thanks.

Hi Tony, what VFT do you use on the MK II. Also does it like tail up or tail down. Thanks.

I tested the type II at 1g VTF. It's not my everyday cartridge. These 3 just happen to be on the last 3 turntables I picked up. Of all the cartridges out there I get 3 good original Shures. I can't imagine the odds of that and the sellers never mentioned what cartridges were on the tables so I never paid a premium for them.

Thanks Tony. I have one that I just fitted on an Empire 208 and wasn't sure. I have it at 1.5gr now so will dial it down.

I recently did an arm swap on my Ariston RD-11s from the original SME 3009 Series 2 Improved -

To this - a Nottingham Interspace

By the best of luck the Interspace came with a one-off SME mounting plate that was exactly the same diameter as the Ariston arm board. Both arms running the same Grado Reference 1 Sonata. It already sounds wonderful and I've barely scratched the surface with the set up.
