i would add my support for the AT line as others have mentioned here.
If you like what the 150MLX does - and its a very fine cartridge - then simply buy its updated equivalent, the VMN40ML, which is the stylus part of the 540/740 range that AT do. I don't have the 1200G but on a 1210 techy its a synergy match made in heaven IMHO. I also have the same phono stage as you and went through quite a few carts including some decent MC carts to settle on this combo. I also heard the more expensive AT33PTG and it sounded neutral and smooth but a bit tame in comparison to the
VM 540ML . You should be able to the stylus up for around £ 185 new.
You can just snap this in to the existing cart body of the 150MLX so no alignment issues. But if you fancied switching around you could get one of the fixed slot headshells like the AT MG10 headshell and that should give no alignment issues with that cart.
