Tonearm/cartridge compatability

Vinyl Asylum

Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

Can anyone tell me if a Goldring Eroica High output ,moving coil cartridge, used on a Graham 2.0 tonearm is maybe a bad match. I bought a very nice Oracle Delphi MKV / Graham 2.0 setup, after the motor died in my MKIII. With the Oracle Delphi MKIII, I had a origin live modded Rega RB300 with the Eroica mounted. It was
great sounding to my ears. I sold the old table, but kept the Eroica, and RB300. I have been tweaking for weeks to get the Eroica/Graham to sound as good as the Eroica/RB300 on the MKIII. Vta, azimith, silicon damping, tearing my hair out. Not that it sounds bad, it doesn't, but its just missing dome of the previous magic. Maybe some mistracking on my favorite albums. Is this a mismatched arm/cartridge combo. I am wondering whether I should give up and buy a Denon DL-103, or , ditch the Graham, and mount the modded Rega to use with the Eroica.
Any opinions appreciated.
