Hi All,
Would anyone have an old or unused Grado cart that I could borrow to see if they hum on a Systemdek Turntable?
Cheers
JB

No need!!
Straight from the horse's mouth....
JB: Hi is this Grado,
JG: Yes this is John (!!!!)
JB: Right so, tell me; will your cartridges hum on a systemdek IIX900?
JG: Yes, yes they will
JB: Are we talking surface noise level hum, will or could it be intrusive?
JG: It would be intrusive, don't buy one...
JB: ok! thanks, I promise to buy one for my next TT
JG: Ok thanks!

Can I suggest a Denon DL110 or DL160? High output movincg coil (so works as per a MM cart)
I've also heard only good things about the ortofon blue and red series?
