Hello.
I am a new (and a new owner of SL1210 mkII) member, and a little bit confused about the relation between arm mass, headshell mass and cartridge mass :scratch:. Well, I guess some homework for me, but I have actual questions:
1. What would be the recommended headshell(s) for the Micro Benz MC Gold?
2. What for the Denon 103 (103r)?
3. If I go for option 1. or 2. what would be the recommended mat?
Currently I have Technics tonearm with Sumiko headshell and AT110E cartridge. Summiko is much, much better. Turntable is on the Audioquest sorbothane feet’s, and that was also big positive change.
I have heard sl1210 with Sumiko headshell/Sumiko BP Evo III. Great combination, but still considering it due to the price of Evo III.
An one more question: can higher tracking force of Denon 103 can actualy damage the record (on the long run), compared to the cartridges with the lower tracking force?
Hopefully I will contribute to this forum in the future:)
Thanks,
Vladan
