Thanks a million Adam. Your tips are really useful.
They sure are - *borrow* a cartridge??? There's a pretty notion - I wish I
had thought of that instead of buying the dozen or so I have on the go
here!!
If you really want to be lead by the nose and other people's opinions will
do it for you, then I would suggest you *borrow* the AT110E as well as the
510/II - I have both here and, at half the price (should you ever get round
to paying for one), the AT is a better cart (IMO) than the Orto, which I
find a bit 'shouty'....
Anyway, you're in luck - I posted comparisons between all these carts here a
couple (or few) years ago. Here they are again, in case they are of any
interest to you (the clue is in the track name - 'ortofon' means 510/II):

(Perhaps, when you have heard them, my earlier comments may make more sense
to you..... ;-)
