would second the blue point no 2. lovely cart! ought to be a good jump from the pearl. high output so can use it with your mm input.

hi Myriad!

The Sumiko is indeed a good cartridge. The Project turntables comes with Ortofons usually unless specifically asked for something else. We have sold a Project Perspective 2 turntables with the Sumiko Bluepoint 2. they are very good but not as warm as the Ortofons. But this probably would'nt be a problem for you since you are already using a Sumiko.

Abhishek

Thanks. A good suggestion.
I see Sumiko is more compliant than AT on Project 9 arm.

Is there anyone who deals in Sumiko carts in the country?

Hi Vasu,
as per Steven nova audio mumbai deals in Sumiko cartridges. Which phono stage you are planning to use? I guess matching the cartridge with the phono stage is most important. The other issue to check is if your counterweight can balance this cartridge. Otherwise it is better to look for the cartridge and counterweight together.
Thanks.

Mahi,
The supplied counterweight will go with Sumiko Blue Point.
AFAIK Sumiko being high output MC should go with Project Phono Box SE as well as Lyrita Valve Phono Pre.
