A few thoughts on the 301 Mk2 before I try the K&K SUT. I am currently using the Firebottle Head amp.
My system has never sounded this good!
The 301 is glorious, it has all the top end info you could want with a magnificent midrange / lower bass. The texture this adds to instruments is fabulous. If you want to hear bottom end tonal quality and balls this is a cartridge worth considering.
I know where your coming from now Marco with the Denon sound.:)
In terms of VTA, this cartridge likes dead flat / horizontal tonearm and tracking at 1.55g.
I honestly can't think of one area I could improve on as the 301 integrates with my system so well. Wish I had tried one of these years ago.
One more observation - this cartridge although MC I think bridges the gap between a MM and a MC. It does not sound all airy fairy detail at the top with little at the bottom. It has the balls of a MM with the tonal textural properties of an MC .
