For Sale: Ortofon Kontrapunkt B

This is from my collection of four cartridges, it has about 100 hours use, probably a little less. It's just run-in. It is a great example of a Kontra as you can see from the photos. It comes with the original box, instructions and the packs of screws and accessories haven't even been opened.

Specification

Output voltage at 0.47mV
Stylus type Nude FG80/ Ruby cantilever
Tracking force range 2.2 to 2.7 g
Tracking force, recommended 2.5 g
Recommended load impedance 50 to 200 Ohms
Cartridge weight 10 g

I'm looking for around £500 for this cartridge. PM me if you are interested, by all means make me an offer but make it a good one, the highest offer gets this superb cartridge.

Clive - Sorry, I am not buying, but you have just made my day..!
I have one of these carts that I bought a while back, then a few weeks later I got something even more special, so took it off and kept it as a spare. I had forgotten what it cost, so to find that I have a spare worth that much is great news !!
Good luck with your sale, and many thanks !

Before I start my own thread, I'll post here that I too have one for sale - If anything it has had less use than Clives, comes boxed etc, as Clives did, and can be had for the same money, so over to you !
I'll start my own thread soon, but thought that if anyone missed out on Clives, then maybe they might check here...
