Cartridge Recommendation for VPI Classic

[joe1515]

I need help picking out my cartridge. I spoke to Mike from VPI and these are the cartridges he recommends for the Classic table;

-Dynavector 20x
-Grado Reference
-Sumiko Blackbird

I am leaning to-wards the blackbird for a few reasons, sumiko has a really good trade up program which will allow me to trade up my blue point #2. Mike from VPI said they use the blackbird all the time in their tables and he loves the sound. I have read many very positive reviews about the cartridge.

I currently have the Pro-Ject Phono Box II pre amp which I will be upgrading within the next year so. What do you guys think?

Thanks,

Joe
