Hello AK,

I currently have 3 TT's, a Pioneer PL-530, a Technics SL-1300 and a Sanyo TP-1030.
Of these, only the Pioneer and Technics currently function properly.
To go with these tables I have 5 potential cartridges available to me without significant expense.
On the Pioneer I currently have a dynavector 10X5
The Technics has it's original AT cart which I can't identify.
The Sanyo has a Shure cart that is missing it's stylus it's silver and has a 25 on the face.
I also have an AT-120 cart body that came on the PL-530 that also needs a stylus, and a Nagaoka MP150 that needs a new stylus, make sense so far?
The question to the community is in your opinion which cart would work best on which table?

You're done.

We know what AT cartridge it is. but if you want to find out the number is on top.
If the dynavector has a good stylus you have nothing to do but make sure the rest of the system is geed enough and you have two tts and a few cartridges to move to make improvements.
 
Balifly &Blue Shadow,

Thanks for the feedback, so are you guys saying the Pioneer is a better table than the Technics or it's better because of the cart? The Dynavector I purchased and has around 250 or so hours on it. The rest of the system I feel is adequate for now..:)
I've got an Anthem AVM 30 pre feeding a pair of Integra ADM 30.1 amps passively bi-amping a pair of Monitor Audio RX Silver floorstanding speakers. In my opinion, the weak link right now is the phono pre-amp, I got a Parasound with a USB out so I could copy music to my computer. I think that is the next thing I'll be changing. then a pair of Rotel amps. I know, I'm addicted!

Thanks!

I'm quite curious about the Shure cart on the Sanyo, the TT itself is junk but I know Shure used to make GREAT carts.
