Highly praised MM cartridge that many feel is among the best ever. Its healthy 3.6 mV output and 47k load requirement means it can be run into standard MM phono section -- no SUT or head amp required.I won't bore you with the flowery language, Google can be used to find all the very positive reviews and comments. Note that this is V1 that I believe retailed for $1000. The current V2 is $1200. I bought this about 18 months ago as a dealer demo that saw 3 LP's of play time -- or so he said. I have no reason to doubt it as upon arrival the stylus looked brand new and perfect. Only light use since then as it's been in rotation with my other carts. I estimate I've added maybe another 50 hrs. Selling because I've decided to concentrate on LOMC. Plenty of life left. Perfect operationally and cosmetically. Cantilever is straight, stylus is clean and sharp. The zoom photos are from original seller, and show it's pristine condition. Under my 30x jewelers loupe, it basically looks the same now. Always handled and setup properly by experienced vinyl-phile. No risk here, you'll be very happy with its condition! Included: cartridge, original plastic case, 2 hex head mount screws, 2 plastic washers to protect your headshell. Not included: stylus guard, paperwork. It came to me without them. $450 obo. If PP friends/family/gift is used I'll cover insured USPS priority shipping to lower 48. Thanks for looking.... ~John
