The cheapest Cadenza is $1,200. You can get either the Dynavector 10x5, 20x2L or 17D3 for less than that. Don't quite understand your budget.

Well said Erocka. The 20xl2 is a fine cartridge.

The Ortofons are just plain ol bleh. They're there, not much more can be said about them- other than good marketing.  What's sad is that one gets whipped up over their great new table, yet then puts that on it. How does one know they've compromised their table? Their music? It's hard out there in hifi land.
