    They didn't sound great through my Supex SUT for some reason, but sounded just fine through the Osawa SUT and of course FR's own one. Wasn't that struck by the Supex SUT anyway.

    MC1 in all its versions and 201 should be fine. Not sure about the 202 that's higher impedance but should be ok.

    The MC202 needs careful loading to avoid a fierce top end.

    A blinding cart that punches well above its price point is the Hana SL.

    Agreed the hana SL is a great cartridge that for my money challenges many carts in £1000+ range.
    Modded td160 super Thorens ol encounter arm hana sl cart, angle audio studio pro mc virtual battery phono amp with separate psi, Onix pre and mono amps, Onix CD player, Onix BWD and soap tuner. B&W dm2 speakers or super pencil 12 speakers, atlas cables, seperate mains power supply with earth spike.

    Something about the reviews hasn't inspired me. Not sure why. I think I'd need to hear one.

    Yes, you need to hear one.
