AT1005/Ortofon compatibility

[davecooper]

Can anyone recommend a MM cartridge that will work well in an Audio Technica AT1005II arm. I was considering using an Ortofon VMS30E that I have in another turntable but feel this may not be an ideal match for the AT which is a highish effective mass arm. Both new and older cartridges would be considered but without breaking the bank so needs to be under £100 ideally. Is there a market for the Ortofon with a stylus having relatively low playing hours?

The arm is more suited to a moving coil cartridge so I'd suggest a Denon DL110 which is not too over budget but high output so would work fine into your moving magnet stage.
