HI DIY people.
I'm now looking for a new cart formy sme 3009 t.arm.Anyone to give
me suggestions the chice is between a Grado prestige gold, goldring
g 1042 , denon dl160, anyone who tested at least a couple of those .
Besides i'd like to know if the SME t.arm has fluid damper(refillable)
or just mechanical....
tks,Marco
 
Hi Marco

The series II has no fluid damper. All the cartridges you mention will be a good mechanical match for a series II improved, fixed. Unfortunately i only have experience with the 1042 in this arm and it indeed sounds very good. The vinyl asylum is a good place to search for arm/cart compatibility.
