Just grabbed an ADC carbon fibre low mass tone arm LM-2 and an Ortophon cart- a LM-30.
What a sweet little tone arm! What are you fella's with low mass arms running for carts? -------------------- What you got back home, lil' sister, to play yer fuzzy warbles on? Pitiful, portable picnic players? Come with uncle & hear all proper! Hear angels trumpets & devils trombones. You are invited!

I have Ortophon MC-15 in the Pro-Ject Debut 3 and i like it a lot.
Don't you think that LM-30 rather old?  --------------------   " Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be measured " Albert Einstein |

Does the stock arm on a B&O 4004 qualify as low mass? The cartridge is the MMC20EN.

I had just sold my MMC 20 EN before I grabbed this arm. That's a fantastic moving cross cartridge- only negative is stylii are no longer produced, and cost of a new one runs $250 and up online, as of late.

Some years ago, I bought a B&O 4800 at a salvage place for ten bucks. The tape and phono were both dead, but it had a good MMC20EN on it, and I sold it on eBay for $70 - 80. I needed the money at the time, but I sure wish I'd kept it.
