I know its more than you want to spend, but with a good $200 cartridge like the Nagaoka MP-150 or Ortofon 2M Blue, or even an Audio Technica AT440MLa for $155, it will blow away any you have listed. Contact SOTA directly to see if they will get you a demo. 800-772-SOTA or 608-538-3500. Also check out LP Gear in Henderson, NV for a SOTA demo. http://www.lpgear.com/product/SOTAMBEAM.html http://www.lpgear.com/CTUS.html
Ha ha... deja vu, eh jackfish? I contacted Sota, and they said my demo option is to buy a turntable and return it if I'm not happy with it--minus a 20% restocking fee. Not exactly an idea situation. Henderson is about 16 hours round trip from here, so it's not really worthwhile.
going to Aris Audio, Audibel Elegance West, Cryoparts, or Wasatch CD Exchange and listen to a Music Hall MMF 5.1.
