    Can anyone recommend a cartridge for a Thorens TD160 Mk2 with original tonearm? My preamp has both MM and MC functions and I like to keep it under £200 if possible. It would be an added bonus if the same cartridge would work with the SME 3009 (improved) on my other turntable which is a TD125. Incidentally I'm still having problems fixing the TD125 if anyone can help with that too (see earlier posts).
    Cheers, Mike

    Hi Mike,

    Difficult to beat a £130 Denon DL110 within your budget and it will work fine in the Thorens arm.

    High output MC so play through the MM input on the amplifier.

    Mike,
    where are you. If you are not too far away from me (Birmingham) I might be able to help.
