In Reply to: grace 707 tone arm cartridge posted by kully@optonline.net on May 26, 2016 at 17:09:28:
About 14-years ago I owned a Denon DL-301II LOMC cartridge and it had rather high-compliance. I mounted it in my SME III tonearm, which had effective mass of 5-grams, but I installed a 4.4-grams headshell weight. It turns out I really didn't need the headshell weight because my DL-301II had compliance at resonance in the neighborhood of 24 x 10-6 cm/dyne. It's dynamic compliance was rated at 13 x 10-6 cm/dyne at 100-Hz and this translates into much higher compliance at its 10-Hz system resonance frequency. Anyway, I think the Denon DL-301II might be a good match for the 7-gram Grace 707. On the other hand, just about any medium compliance LOMC cartridge will work fine in the Grace 707 if you add some extra mass to the headshell. There are special headshell weights specifically designed to be mounted in-between the cartridge and headshell. You just need to be careful to get a non-magnetic headshell weight. You can even buy special cartridge mounting screws that add mass.
