Yes, it will be
much loved.....and mauled into a different 'creature' in the end.
I'll probably pair it with the AQ PT-6 (which means it must be fitted to the VPI HW-19) as it is fluid damped.
However, I actually
like moving coils on the VPI....I think their inherent 'quickness' suits the slower timed belt driver well and (inherently better isolated) belt drivers don't have any rim-induced ringing issues...so as to not make much worse MC's rising top end.
It may also replace the
Grado Green/shibata in the Technics/Origin Live bastard to see if 125' of very pure (LC-OFC) copper makes any crapload of difference over the 125' of simpler/cheaper OFC copper in the coils of the Green. Cause, once you swap out the stylus assembly for the shibata...the two cartridges are
identical right down to the hand-selecting baloney that Grado tells us the Green, Red and Gold go thru
Oh well - such problems I have - may ALL your issues in your lives be as small as this
