cartridge recomendations for Thorens TD-145 [message #12522]

I just bought a Thorens TD-145 the auction stated that it had a MA 2002 needle which I can't find any info on. The seller is out of town until the weekend and will be sending me the actual cartridge info then.

Any recomendations for a good reasonably priced cartridge for use with the stock arm. The turntable will be feeding a Carver receiver.

From what I've read the Orotofon Super 20 or Super 30 seems pretty good.

Thanks
Le

I love the om-20 and 0m-30, but recent price increases have made them a little less attractive.

Best cartr for the buck for a 145 is the Shure m97xe. Check Amazon for an amazing price.
