I've been using both Shure M95-HE and M95-ED cartridges for a 
while now, and for a $30-40 cartridge I think it's pretty good.

Here's the question:
	The last cart I bought was the ED version. When going to
replace the stylus, they had no EDs in stock. So, I purchased the
HE version and installed it on my M95-ED cart. I figured this was
reasonable since (I believe) the only difference between them is the
actual stylus shape (elliptical vs. hyper-elliptical). I became
concerned when I got home and the literature enclosed with the stylus
indicated that only two styli are intended for replacement on a M95-HE
(the one I bought, and a mono version). Does anyone know if the carts
themselves are different? BTW, it sounds fine, and there's no
noticeable difference in performance.

While we're at it... anybody have any alternate suggestions for a
mid-priced cartridge?
