I've got a TD-115 that works just great, but needs a new cartridge. It's got a B&O cartridge on it right now that seems OK but I'd like to replace it. Anyone have a recommendation as to the best cartridge (under $200) for it? I was thinking a Grado Prestige...thoughts?
Also, is there a way to adjust the tone arm damper? It doesn't seem to go down all the way, and with the current B&O cartridge set at the right height (I think) the arm rests slightly on the damper and has a tendency to skip because of it.

Hi,
download the service manual here.

The height is adjustable via a allen grub screw from behind.
The arm is low mass and structurally needs a high compliance cartridge.
The Audio Technica AT120E/T, Ortofon OM20 or a Grado Prestige
could all work well depending on system matching preferences.
