cartridge upgrade

[archie2]

My Sansui SR-525 TT came with a Shure R25XT cartridge. I'm looking to upgrade. I don't need the best cartridge made but would like a good quality cartridge that mates well with this TT. Thanks for any suggestions.

What's your price range?

Under $100

Grado: Black, Green, Blue. Nice sounding carts. Not the best tracking carts, and because they're unshielded there's the potential for hum.

Audio Technica: AT440ML is very popular.

Shure: The M97XE is a nice cart.

If the 440MLA is too good (figure about $90 for the cartridge itself and $70 for replacement styli), you can step it down to the 120ET and save about $35.

Shure M97xE for a total of $62.15. Good deal?
