I have just picked up a used Rega Planar 3 with an Audio Technica 95 pickup (MM). The previous owner stated that the PU is not used a lot but I still want to ask the fine members at this forum what they recommend regarding PUs to this Rega model?
I have a new Pickering XV-15/625E cartridge laying around from another project but I do not know if this will be a direct fit on my RB300 arm or not? On another forum a member stated that a spacer needs to be used. Is this correct?
If so, what thickness does it has to have and from where can a get this kind of spacer?
Cartridge:

Anyway, is this a good cartridge to be mounted on the Rega?
I mostly listen to rock and hard rock but will also buy records that contain other styles of music.
I also have a Dual/Ortofon DN 165E cartridge, is this a better choice to the Rega and is a spacer needed?
