Very unique and extremely rare, in unused condition.
New Old Stock from 1979.
The MMC 20 CL was the top of the MMC 20 series. The MMC 20 CL was designed for the tangential turntables of that time and was the first B&O cartridge to use a sapphire cantilever of one crystal. This offered a very rigid, but light structure and was equipped with a “Naked contact line diamond” (with one of the world’s best cuts).
At time of the introduction, it received a number of rave reviews from the audio press, who are normally not known for their love of B&O.
Fully complete in original packaging with all accessories being:
- Special connector with which this cartridge can also be used on universal - non-B&O - tonearms.
- Protective cap for the cartridge
- User manual
- Calibration card
- Needle pressure scale
- Brush
- Extra weight
- Allen wrench
Recommended needle pressure is only 1 gram.
For specifications, see the photos.
The piece will be properly packaged and shipped with insurance.
