Re: Garrard pic of the day (GPoTD) Ikeda style

I was considering all possibilities of 12’ arms like the Ortofon RMG 309, the famous FR66 or the Ikeda IT 407, all arms capable to balancing the 32 g SPU headshell.. after several tests, I’m very happy with an Ikeda/Shelter duo.. this set-up sound natural, with rich tonal colours, elegance and on the top of that, the soundstage is transparent and focused with great precision... the Shelter 501 does everything I expect from a cartridge exceptionally well.. of course there is room for improvement as the 501 is a low cost (!) in the Shelter range..
