I'm Simon.
It's all about synergy and the strangest combos can make way more magic than some of the ludicrously priced cartridges I've heard (barring the fact you seem to need to spend 15K plus to get a 'decent' turntable). WTA/Goldring Epic of unknown vintage on a home brewed Lenco, Wood Bodied Grado/Syrinx PU 2 on an early pinked Lp 12, 2.5K Audionote IO/PU 7 on a home brewed Lenco, Benz Glider/Stogi S on an Oracle, my faves above the umpteen dozen combos I've heard including my current Koetsu/Stogi Ref on an Oracle. Used to burn out 3 cartridges a year. Would I ever spend 2K on a cartridge again (or 2.6K dollas on a ZYX), no chance, older and wiser, mugs game.
