A bit of a long shot but if anybody has one they are not using I'd like to hear about it.

Thanks in advance.

it was on my old Sony PUA-9 arm which I sold last year, and the chap did not want the 165 shell

bugger, ignore my posts, my headshell is too big, it is meant for the PS-X70 and X75 etc

the 151 is a wee bit smaller and is intended for these decks ( among others )
PS-T22, PS-T33, PS-X55, PS-LX22, PS-LX2, PS-LX3, PS-LX4, PS-LX5, PS-FL1, PS-FL3, PS-FL5, PS-X500, PS-X600

what Sony TT have you got Mike ?? is it still the 6750

Thanks Peter.

Very helpful indeed :)

I still have the PS-6750 but this is for a PS-X600 that I recently picked up. Don't think it will be staying though, as despite it looking fabulous and sounding really very good the 6750 just edges it SQ wise.

Having said that though, I might just hold on to it to look at :stalks:

Is this what you are looking for? :)

it's an unused spare from a PS-X55, I believe it is the same one. Is £35 plus 2nd class recordered cost (small packet I think) reasonable, it was about to go on the bay for £39 but you can save the fees.

Cheers, Lawrence
