[QUOTE="Henry, post: 369818, member: 14394"] From my own listening I've matched up the cartridges with the decks as follows: A Denon DP-31F direct drive deck with a Shure V15 series 3 moving magnet cart. (Stock arm) - [b]Sample 2[/b] Garrard 401 idler wheel driven deck with a Denon DL-160 high output moving coil cart (Rega RB300 arm) - [b]Sample 3[/b] A Technics SL-Q2 direct drive with a Grado F3+ moving iron cart. (Stock arm) - [b]Sample 1[/b] I obviously prefer Sample 3, it is the most neutral sound to my ears of the 3. It also has some more detail. Sample 1 has too much bass. Sample 2 sounded boring. Daar maak ek nou seker my naam gat! :giggle: Ek is maar doof. Te veel in Hillbrow clubs gejol toe ek jonk was. :Whoohoo: [/QUOTE]
