Dual 1019 cartridge advise

[David Bright]

Hello. Looking to get a new cartridge for the Dual 1019. I listen to a lot of jazz. Thank you in advance. i have a $200 budget . . .

I like the sound of jazz on my 1019 with a Grado Black II.

With $200 to spend, you could go as far as the Grado Prestige Red3. I assume the Grados don't hum on the Dual 1019?

No hum on my 1019 with Grado Black II.

If you want to save a buck, why not try the at3600l which seems to fit very well on the Dual 1019.
Restored one of these for a friend and put this cheap cartridge on for him to get started. Got a bit blown away of how good it sounded!

M91 works for me on the 1019.

Restored a 1019 and put a AT3600 on it for my daughters room. I was taken aback by how good it sounded. Left it on there.

Stanton 681EEE sounds pretty sweet to me on a 1019

I swap out a Shure M55 with a Shure M91. I think the "55 supplies a big powerful sound,,, very dynamic .

Have three different Shures on three 1219s. V15 type III, a M55 and a M91ED. All work well but the 91 with an EVG seems to sound the best.
