Hi all
I recently posted a thread in these forums looking to bring my Rega back to life (Rega planar 3 and beyond)
This was all VERY useful but the stylus I was recommended by @Ugg10 (Nagaoka JNP-110) seems to be impossible to source at the moment so I have asked one supplier/retailer for additional suggestions.
Basically I am now looking at potentially shifting from a stylus replacement to a cartridge replacement. The (very) basic budget I suggested was in the region of the cost of a Nagaoka MP-150 cartridge. They have come back to me with the suggestion of an Audio-Technica VM530EN (VM530EN)
Is this cartridge a suitable/worthy replacement for the Nagaoka MP-11 I currently have? Is it in any way an upgrade/downgrade? A cursory search is returning very few reviews, but I don't know the best places to look - which is why I am here asking the question!!
Thank you all in advance
