I'm running an old Rega flagship system, (Hal, 2 x Exons, Eos, P9 with Exact cartridge and a pair of Rega RS10 speakers). The system doesn't sound great with modern vinyl with a fairly compressed sound and muted highs. It does sound great with a couple of old records but given most of my music is from new pressings I need a cartridge that flatters poor pressings. Any suggestions. I prefer a slightly bright and expansive sound. My initial thoughts were an ortofon quintet black but I've had mixed reviews about them. I even go as far as an apheta 3. Any other suggestions welcome but £1250 is my absolute max budget.
