In Reply to: RE: You forgot the technics EPC 100 posted by Penguin on January 25, 2015 at 15:53:32
because I limited my list to those I have actually heard myself in my system. I too would love to own an EPC 100, but we want only the Mk4 version, right?
Then there's those Fidelity Research cartridges so fawned over by some.
And Astatic. Which one? MF100, 200, or 300? Or the 2500?
There also many Pickerings, Empires, AKGs, etc, to think about. I've got two Empires, 4000DIII and 1000ZE/X still in the box, and two AKGs yet unheard.
Cheap thrills, all.

Foxtan digs up one here and there but he wants around $1300 for them, a bit on the expensive side for a cartridge that will need the SS treatment rigth away. At that point it might be a better deal to get a new cartridge from Peter.
Only if i could find and an EPC-100 MK 4 under 1K......dream on.

The way I figure it, except for the droolings of a few guys I really don't know (including Raul, who cooled off on it anyway over time), I have no data to convince me the EPC100 Mk4 is generally superior to what I've got. Plus, like you say, they all come from the orient, and I don't fancy trying to get my money back if the sample I pay so much for turns out to be a POS. So, I've just put it out of my mind.
take one of the $1200 offerings from peter....and be done with it.

I'm rather happy with my collection of vintage MMs and MIs, as of now. But I do think along the same lines myself. The SS line of MI cartridges is probably great; I have only heard the Sussuro, and it was indeed excellent, but not in the bargain category for cost.
And the strain gage. Liked the later better. But the Sussoro was also excellent. I would think the Zephyr or the Boheme would be nice as well.
