Hi guys,

I have had my adorable Project Debug III fitted with the Ortofon OM
5E. I am planning on moving up the ladder.

After reading rave reviews of the 2M Red I am thinking of buying
one.
Its $120 here in Australia which is around my price range.

The only concern I have is if my turntable and tonearm (project
8.6)
will be handle this upgrade.

Any tips?


**You shouldn't experience any problems. I would only be concerned
with
the fitting of an MC cart to that arm.


Why?




Possibly the fumble factor and risk of damage fitting one to a 'fixed'
tonearm with no removable headshell?

Athough any decent MC cart will have a stylus protector which will
enable the cart to be fitted with it in-situ and removed afterwards - I
have AT, Ortofon and Goldring MC carts, all of which allow this...
