After having had a look at the vpi classic and thinking wow thats a beauty I didn`t want to say you should up the ante on the cart but ncblue did it for me. vert tracking adjustment is for different thicknesses of vinyl. If I pop a 180 gm lp on the deck I know I need a half turn on the allen key which is kept handy.
I`m scanning the reviews for a new cart myself, which will be a decent upgrade on my dynav mc20. The ZP3 is worth the investment.
I have a shortlist of two.
Musicmaker classic.
London Decca Jubilee
Oh yes the ZP3 . First time I`ve had sound pressures in the room.
Maybe we should have a cartridge thread. So many makers with different models. V de Hull, Clearaudio, Zyx, the Koetsu black is competitively priced, a huge range of Ortophons, Grados........If I could afford two or three
