    I'm Geoff.

    The most evenly balanced MC I've heard is the Technics EPC-305MC. No undue emphasis anywhere, but superbly detailed and very transparent. I kept mine for twenty years 'cos it beat all competition. When that came along, I sold my SPU, Decca Mk.IV and Londons. (kept the ADC's though )

    They are like gold dust though. Nigh on impossible to find.

    Oh. And if you spot one of these or the MC202. You'd probably really enjoy what it can do. I had a couple and thought they were very nice indeed.

    You might get one from Japan, but I think they are likely to command daft prices these days. Jez Arkless has the aluminium cantilever version, the EPC-310MC. The 305 has Boron.

    They never made a bad one as far as I know. I've owned two MC201's and thought they sounded great.

    I've owned quite a few FR cartridges, they can come across a bit dull if not carefully matched for SUT.
