Default OK, now how about cartridges for an RB-250 arm

How about a Denon hi-output MC? What other options do you feel works
well with this arm?


I don't have any experience with the Denon Carts. I know the DL103 is
legendary.


If you are considering MC carts, what are you using for a phono stage?


Right now it's just the phono inputs on an Adcom preamp, hence the
high output requrement. I was considering a DL-160, but it looks like
Ortofon is the consensus opinion. I am upgrading the electro-
mechanical aspects of the stereo I have with me. I'll worry about
upgrading the electronics later.


The DL-160 is a nice cart for a dark-sounding 'tabel like a Technics
SL1200, but it's a bit lively and airy and can be too much of a good
thing on a Rega.
