As the next step in building my 'vintage' Sony rig, I'm now looking at Sony MM carts.

Are they any good ?

What models should I be looking at for my PS-6750 TT ?

How close could I get SQ wise to my 2M Black or Goldring 1042 ?

Your experiences / input appreciated chaps.

I believe Sony did make their own MMs, but the Sony MMs I've actually seen, seem to have been 'rebadged' Audio Technicas.

Yes , the Sony XL-25a which I believe may have been made by Nagoka
