Maynard Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Hey all would a nagaoka cart mp 300 or 500 work on a jelco with effective mass 13.4 grams? (Guessing this IS a medium mass arm)?! if not can anybody report excellent pairings with this arm and a MM cartridge? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cafe latte Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 The Nags work well on 12g arms (Technics) and also good on the 12 inch version which is heavier. Remember the Jelco can be made lighter too with headshells so should not be hard to get them lighter. I have a MP500 and heard loads of other Nag models due to retipping them, like them a lot, but not my fav cart all the same. I am though a cart nut with around 80 carts and still buying them so not the person who is going to love one cart Chris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynard Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 Hey thanks Since you are well experienced in carts what would be a no brainer recommendation for the jelco in your opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your budget and can it be vintage? Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynard Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 My budget around 600-1000 yes I suppose it could be vintage as well if easy to get... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had mine on yesterday and it is still on today, the XLM is a fab cart, quite high compliance, but seems to be fine on my medium compliance Technics with oil damping.
