Hello, folks.

I'm looking for net.wisdom regarding a phono cartridge.

My preferences:
	-neutral/warm balance
	-good tracking
	-compliance compatable with Well Tempered Arm
	-output not important (low output MC OK)
	-considered Sigma Genesis 2000, Grado Sig TLZ
	-used with Sonogy Concerto / RIAA
	(can load for anything 1 ohm => 100k, 20 dB => 80 dB)
	
I'm looking for serious comments only, from those who have
made tough comparisons.  My past experiences have been:

Talisman S => I hate this bright, screechy dog
Blue POint => ditto
Supex 1000/2000 => Nice, but poor tracking
Grado Sig 8M => nice, but no cigar
Shure V15V MR => better than i expected, great bass, lousy detail
Sony ??44 => demo in arm today, shows promise (at $60 !!)

Thanks, folks!
