My wife took me to a Hi Fi shop in Madison the other day for my birthday, and I left 375 bucks poorer. Not only that, but I have thoughts on replacing my Carver m500t with something very new and very expensive. Starts with Mc....
I bought two cartridges. A Grado blue, and an Ortofon blue. I got the
Grado for my Technics SL-D3. The Ortofon went on the HK T40. Compared to the out dated carts that were on each TT, It is like night and day.
Just an observance, but if I could do it over again, I would rethink the Ortofon. The Grado that I bought at half the cost is a better deal. The Ortofon lacks depth, in my opinion. I do recognize the need for a lighter weight cartridge for the HK tone arm, but I am not sold on Ortofon. I think the HK TT would do better with something else. I am just not sure what yet.
