I have more carts & styli than makes any sense with the rest of my system or the size of my record collection, so I'm offering a couple nice AT examples for sale.
1. AT15ea body with a used ATN15Xe stylus & a new ATN15 shibata stylus
The ATN15Xe stylus has about 50 hours of use according to the seller I bought it from, I can't know if that's accurate but it looks good and plays well. The ATN15sa shibata stylus is NOS and I have played a total of 2 lps with it to check it works and it does and sounds really nice. Pictured with the cartridge is the ATN15Sa stylus. The AT15Ea body to my understanding was a later, higher output version of the AT15, it puts out 4.5mV as opposed to 2.5mV of the AT15Sa. Physically they are identical except for the different color. Both styli have beautiful high quality nude mounted diamonds. Looking for 180 EUR + delivery at cost. Finnish Postal service is not exactly cheap, so for untracked delivery that would be 8.50 EUR and 27.50 EUR as a tracked small packet up to 2kg. International signed for would be 17.80 EUR, it would be a good option for some countries, but I don't think it has full tracking in GB.
2. AT30E low output MC with a used stylus & a NOS one.
MC cartridge with 0.3mV output, nude .3x.7 stylus (user replaceable). I think if you search this very forum you'll find some people waxing lyrical about it, and it is a better cartridge than you'd perhaps expect from an MC with user replaceable stylus. The used stylus (pictured with the cartridge) has the cantilever protruding downwards in weird excessive angle, but despite that the suspension seems otherwise healthy and settles down OK when playing and sounds fine. The diamond looks good. I have absolutely no idea how much this has been used and due to suspension that must've got somehow misaligned I'd treat this stylus as a bonus. The other stylus is NOS, still in it's original Zafira (French (?) equilavent to Pfanstiehl) bulk packaging. I'm happy to test drive it before money changes hands, I think it would be in the interest of both parties to make sure it works fine to avoid surprises. That said I've got several other AT styli from the same source and they've all been fine, so I'm not expecting any problems with this one either. Looking for 150 EUR + postage at cost.
The third photo shows the NOS ATN30E stylus and the used ATN15Xe stylus. Only cartridges & styli are included in the sale, no extras and no original packaging. Payment in Euros, either by bank transfer or by PayPal as gift. If you have any questions just ask.
