Thanks for jumping in on the Grado info Marc, I really appreciate it. I am certainly not familiar with the Grado line. So to me it sounds like there were a few versions that played well with low mass arms, but something changed?
See for years I've thought about an upgrade to the V15 but I've been pretty happy with my 91ED so I never pursued it. There is one on an auction for 120 right now. Is there a SAS for the Type4? Having a hard time narrowing it down.
Yes, it would need to be a pretty high compliant stylus. The Jico has been working fine, but I wonder if there is better out there for the same $$$. Its prob a niche market for comparison between the options I'm sure. But doesn't hurt to check and see. :)
I've never tried the Denon on this arm, as its cantilever was sheared off when I purchased the turntable it was on. I've thought about seeing if it could be repaired, but have never had the need to.
My Jico SAS for my M91ED has been damaged. So I am looking for a comparable replacement around the same price point.

Travelling to London and Paris next month. Any recommendations for sweet record stores to visit? I'm looking for original vinyl, not repressings really. But if they have both that's cool too.
Thanks in advance!
Yep, they xover at 6500.
Thanks for the thread link. Will start digging in. I imagine I can tweak a couple of the components (or add) to help with that peak in the mid while also keeping the xover design the same.
