 Great seat travel extension without the sibilance, natural sounding with beautiful harmonics and tonal inflections, moving vocals, great details, great dynamics and good bass performance. You rest easy in your seats, ears soothed, thoroughly enjoying the performance, feeling both the subtleties and power in equal abundance. Top marks for the grado black. Again as I elicited in my previous video for the excellent gold ring elan, I rate these two cards, the grado black and the gold ring elan, joints top because if you were to ask me to keep one and sell off the other four, I cannot make up my mind between the two of them

 And the grado black bass performance is much much better than the Audio Technica 100E, the Otophone OM-5E and the Sumiko Oyster. Double bass pluck, body resonance and decay are well portrayed, satisfying and clear. Synthesized bass beats are crisp, hard-hitting and dynamic. The grado black matches the Audio Technica 80100E for high frequency extension and detail but crucially without the sibilance

 I would like to keep both. To me, they are joints winners in group A, clearly and convincingly much better than the Audio Technica AT100E, the Otophone OM5E and the Sumiko Oyster. Thank you friends. The grado black and the gold ring elan have really shown that outstanding, gobsmackingly enjoyable and satisfying music performance can be had for only $70 to $80

 Hello friends, today we're going to make a black grado. First, bass. Bass is very good, being dynamic and punchy and it goes deep, very well done and losing only to the gold ring eland. To most of us earthlings, the grado black bass performance much more than suffice and it appeases most people's desire for a great bass reproduction

MM Cartridges US$70-80, Grado Black REVIEW

 Hello friends, today we're going to make a black grado.

 Bass is very good, being dynamic and punchy and it goes deep, very well done and losing

 To most of us earthlings, the grado black bass performance much more than suffice and

 it appeases most people's desire for a great bass reproduction.

 And the grado black bass performance is much much better than the Audio Technica 100E,

 the Otophone OM-5E and the Sumiko Oyster. Double bass pluck, body resonance and decay

 are well portrayed, satisfying and clear.

 Synthesized bass beats are crisp, hard-hitting and dynamic.

 The grado black matches the Audio Technica 80100E for high frequency extension and detail

 but crucially without the sibilance. This makes the grado black top of the heap for

 treble performance in this group A of 5 cartridges.

 This is again where the grado black comes up top in group A. Tonality and harmonics

 are excellent, we easily feel the singer's feelings through the detailed reproduction

 of tonal inflections, brass winds sound right, woodwinds beautiful, pianos beautiful.

 Midrange, again top of the heap in group A. The grado black's midrange is clear, weighty

 and detailed. No upper midrange brightness, the grado black's midrange is very well done

 Guitars zinc, truncheons plaques and those complex tones are all superbly reproduced.

 There's a tremendous sense of palpability of singers and instruments on the soundstage

 with their accompanying great ambience space portrayed around them. There's also good

 separation of different instruments on the soundstage even during complex passages.

 All of the above hints at the grado black's superb resolution of details.

 Great seat travel extension without the sibilance, natural sounding with beautiful harmonics

 and tonal inflections, moving vocals, great details, great dynamics and good bass performance.

 You rest easy in your seats, ears soothed, thoroughly enjoying the performance, feeling

 both the subtleties and power in equal abundance. Top marks for the grado black.

 Again as I elicited in my previous video for the excellent gold ring elan, I rate these

 two cards, the grado black and the gold ring elan, joints top because if you were to ask

 me to keep one and sell off the other four, I cannot make up my mind between the two of

 them. I would like to keep both. To me, they are joints winners in group A, clearly and

 convincingly much better than the Audio Technica AT100E, the Otophone OM5E and the Sumiko Oyster.

 Thank you friends. The grado black and the gold ring elan have really shown that outstanding,

 gobsmackingly enjoyable and satisfying music performance can be had for only $70 to $80.

 If you are already one happy vinyl fan using either of these two cards, congratulations

 to you. These two cards are great heroes in my opinion,

 bringing great vinyl music reproduction to the masses. Truly admirable efforts from these

Just dropping a comment for the cheapest part of the set up, the grado headphones. Best home listening sound imo.

“Upgrades are done. Now I can finally listen!”

 However, if you enjoy high frequencies as part of your listening experience, this might not be the right cart for you. Personally I've enjoyed hearing mid range instrumentation that I haven't noticed before which is why I wanted to experiment with this cart. I also installed on a turntable powered by a tube preamp. Since tubes aren't known for their bass response, I thought a cart that focused on mid and low range would help make up some lost ground

I bought this for $80, specifically to see how a budget cartridge would sound. If you've installed a new cartridge before, I found this one easy to install and align. I have NOT had any hum issues as reported in some of the older reviews.  The first thing I noticed was Grado's focus on the mid and low range frequencies

Lots of Midrange and Lows - Not So Much On The Highs

Sumiko's Pearl is Sonic Elegance Defined Designed by audiophiles, for audiophiles, the Pearl offers a surprising amount of refinement at a very reasonable price. Smooth and extended top frequencies, free of grain and with low surface noise, the Pearl has very good resolution and a touch of midrange warmth make it the ideal choice for all types of music. Like all Sumiko cartridges, the Pearl offers excellent rhythmic drive with solid bass and good propulsion of the lower frequencies. Sumiko cartridges have long been known for offering a high level of performance, but the Pearl's level of musical involvement is unusual in cartridges at this level. The Pearl's elliptical grind stylus offers low noise and high tracking ability. Taking advantage of the stylus's capabilities, Sumiko created a high-power generating system for the Pearl with fewer windings than traditional MM designs allowing the Pearl to offer higher output without sonic penalty. Although much attention has been lavished on Sumiko's higher end designs, we believe the Pearl deserves equal attention. Everyone knows reviewers like expensive cartridges and few will consider inexpensive cartridges. Sumiko's Pearl is a truly excellent MM cartridge, we feel the Pearl is the jewel of the line and should be on any analog lover's short list.

If you’re ordering everything from the same place, contact them and ask if they can fit a different cartridge for you. If you want to stick with Rega then the Bias 2, otherwise perhaps the AT VM95EN or AT VM95ML, the Sumiko Pearl or Rainier, or something similarly priced from the Grado lineup. Avoid the Ortofon Red and Blue, they’re not good value. Otherwise get a Nagaoka MP110 or MP150 from another supplier

I think I've spent all day scouring this sub as well as r/vinyl and r/audiophile.  And I'm finding myself a bit stuck.

I've slowly been collecting records over the years, but don't have a turntable or anything else. Finally ready and have some money to put towards a decent setup. My budget is pretty flexible, so I don't need anything too beginner/starter-ish. 

At this point, I'm torn between the Rega P1 and P2. I would *love* to get the P3 but just don't feel it's in my budget at the moment.  Have looked at Pro-ject and U-Turn as well but like the look of the Rega more.

For the amp, I'm torn between the io and the Fono. Does anyone have any experience with the io, I know it's pretty new to the market?

For the speakers, I'm looking at the Wharfedale Diamonds, but open to others. They're on sale at Music Direct, which is where I'll likely buy everything else.

Would love some thoughts. 

And considering this for a [stand](https://symbolaudio.com/product/max-turntable-stand-b-stock/).

Need a little help

 The biggest improvement is in the stereo separation. There is now a tremendous depth in the soundstage that used to be very flat.  Another review somewhere said it was great for classic rock. At first that struck me as a left-handed compliment, but now I see how that makes perfect sense
