Really like my MP110 (already replaced three styli in 9 years) on the Rega RB250 arm into GramAmp2 Communicator with PSU1 (very big improvement)

I love the Nagaoka line of MM carts. Very sweet, warm, and musical cartridges. Not extremely analytical but just a fantastic balance.

I've been using the same cartridge for months as you know. I liked it better in every aspect over my Goldring 1042, which is a much more expensive cartridge here in the U.S. ($675 vs. $170). In my objective and subjective testing the VM95ML easily won. I ended up selling the Goldring in the end. RE: OPs choices, it would seem the effective mass of Rega tonearm will work with a decent variety of cartridges, so lots of choices out there.

on my TecnoDec with RB250/Tecnoweight I use a Nagaoka MP110 and that sounds very good allround

+1 for the 2M Bronze as an excellent yet forgiving cartridge. Also, the Hana cartridges are terrific value for money!
Merry Christmas to all! Mick.

I bought a AT-VM95ML a few weeks ago and installed it on a stock 1200 MK2. It sounds very capable to my ears although it's early days. Some people might think it's a load of old rubbish but I'm tight when it comes to spending money on hifi.

I am still extremely satisfied with Ortofon 2M Bronze on my AR ES-1. A lot of my vinyl is 50+ years old and still sounds terrific.
