...so OK, we won't talk about that.
Before AT though, I was a Shure die-hard. But replacement styli are hit and miss, mostly miss, the best of them are so expensive you could buy a new current production cart for the same money or less and it would still outperform the old Shure. Also, when Shure killed the V15 series and tried to fool us into believing the M97xe was just as good, well...that was just bullshit.
I never liked Ortofon's MM carts. Had a few, didn't use them for long.
Love the sound of Grado cartridges but never had one that tracked worth a damn.
Other than the AT 540ML, I like the Denon DL110 and the Nag. A high quality diamond will nearly always track well regardless of the shape. Denon uses good ones, so does Nagaoka.

The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
