M3Ds are better.
clickless pitch control, reset button, cartridge holder, removable dust cover, recessed power switch.
those are the only difference, mere conveniences.. |

It's all a matter of preference. I also prefer the mk2. Mostly because here the m3d is more expensive and I don't think it's worth the price difference (a well calibrated mk2 works as good as a m3d).
So if you prefer to have a clickless pitch slider, a quartz reset button, a hingeless cover, a recessed power switch (if you're clumsy) and a spare stylus holder, go for it. Especially if it's the same price. |

IN US, I can get either for $399-$420

yes, i do not like the clickless pitch :whip:
i enjoy the feel of the MKIIs better....i see no point of a cartridge holder, as my Ortofons have there own cases that offer better protection :)
and the pitch reset??? dont even get me started on that :stongue: :stongue: :stongue: :stongue:
>>money did not play a role into my opinion as they cost the same |
