    Compliance at 10 for the epc270c, and 8 for the 205, 206 and 207. Suites medium to high mass arms very well.

    The 270 is made by Nagaoka. I believe the others to be Nagaokas as well.

    Nagaoka have the importer in Netherlands:

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

I have the EPC 207 and EPC 270c. I am happy with both, but happiest with the 207 on my Lenco L75. They fit the arm,, and my ears very well.
    The 205 MkIII or IV, but I doubt you will find one with a working stylus. The Jico neo SAS is very good on a Mk III.

    I'm not au fait with current fixed-coil cartridges; my experience of them is limited to those made in the 70's: ADC, AKG, B&O, Grado and Shure.

    I loved the B&O SP6, SP10/12, especially the MMC series. They all had a high compliance, so are not necessarily compatible with many of today's arms.

    The AN IQ3 is 99% as good as the Black, without the faff and a bit more as you are looking for in the mids.

    A bit of an off the wall suggestion, an ADC with a PSX-40 stylus. Sounds really really great to these ears.
    In my experience the IQ3 is about 150% (figuratively speaking) better than the 2M Black. Or a Goldring 1042 if you fancy a new cart
