Top level MC (moving coil) audiophile cartridge, bought new by myself, and used less than 100 hours. I realized it was not optimum for my low weight arm (SME 3009 III), and left it aside in the past 4 years. When bought, this was considered the top cartridge of Audio Technica (with varying opinions when compared to Art9), at manufacturer price exceeding 1200 euros. As I am now clearing my vinyl equipment (see other items in auction), this cartridge will be put at a better use by a analog audio enthusiast, I tried to take pictures of the diamond as best as I can. The cartridge has been treated with extreme care, used very little, and packed here with all original paperwork and mounting accessories. Good luck bidding.
