I'm using it in an SME 3009 II / Unimproved tonearm mounted on a Thorens TD-124 turntable.
The SUT is a DIY unit I built using the CineMag microphone transformers. Rest of the gear is Bottlehead.

After doing the setup, I only had time to play a few records but just wanted to let you know I really love this cartridge. I've only listened to it through my AKG K701 earphones. I have a very nice recording of
Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto by Itzhak Perlman and Eugene Ormandy. This cartridge let me hear nuances of the violin I've never heard on any recording. Absolutely beautiful. I'll let you know more after I get a few
more hours on it. I set it to track at 2.0 grams as a starter.

Thank you for recommending the DV20XL.
