Goldring G1042 cartridge, virtually unused. This was sold to me (through this forum) very recently together with a Technics 1200 turntable. It had had less than one month's use and in fact looks virtually unused. The cantilever is absolutely straight and the tip as clean as a whistle. I tried it out very briefly and it sounds excellent, on a par with my Audio Technica AT150 mlx and also tracks equally as well with no sibilance and no inner groove distortion (unlike two examples of an Ortofon Black I once had). Only selling as I have a couple of AT cartridges with spare styli - if I didn't I would definitely keep it. The reason why the deck and cartridge were available is that it was an urgent and unexpected sale. There is no original box or stylus guard - I could get one but it probably wouldn't arrive in time before I go on holiday this Saturday and I'm not back until December 19th. £150 to include insured, next day guaranteed delivery, that's around £100 under the new price. It will be well packed with the cartridge screwed to the bottom of a box so it can't move or get damaged.269552695626957 Not sure if the photos are going to work - if not I'll try again.
