As per the title I have a fully boxed Zu Denon 103 MC cartridge for sale, not in perfect condition as the cantilever is slightly skewed to the side due to too much bias, however I dropped it against the TT plinth when fitting a while back and it has just returned from Zu in Utah who managed to straighten the slight bend in it, the cantilever had bent upwards towards the body so you can see Sean at Zu has made a pretty good job of straightening it.
Selling as I have now realised it just doesn't suit my Low Mass Mission 774 arm as it would need about 15-20g added to the headshell to get it set right, which then means I need 2 counterweights to balance it, which is getting silly. Although to be fair I owned the cartridge BEFORE I bought the arm ;)
Still plays fine and was sounding as good as I remember it before sending off for repair, but as it isn't really suited to my arm I'd be as well selling it. Price will hopefully reflect the fact that it's not perfect and is certainly a lot less than I paid for it.
