Not being used as I知 sticking to my Orsonic AV101s as I think it suits the look of my SP10 better.
These are approx ｣199 delivered to the UK so I値l price this one at:
｣160 inc postage within the uk.
Please read the link above that describes how there might be imperfections in the casting of these headshells such as black marks and little chips, this has a few of the marks and a little chip on the front edge. I contacted Alex Korf and he said it was just the manufacturing process that caused these and that I could have returned it for a replacement but he said the next one would be much the same so I kept it rather than sending it back, it in no way affects the use or sound quality of the headshell.
Funnily enough the next best headshell to the Korf that Alex measured was the Orsonic AV101 and that better than the others he tried.
