I'm very reluctantly selling my Kiseki Purpleheart NOS to fund the purchase of another cartridge. If that cartridge sells before the Kiseki I will be withdrawing it from sale.
This Kiseki Purpleheart NOS is no. 9 of a limited edition run of just 49. It's a rare thing. I've never seen another come up for sale. The story behind the Purpleheart NOS model can be found on the Kiseki website (http://kiseki-eu.com/kiseki-purpleheart-nos/). A review of the PH NOS has been published here (https://www.audio-activity.com/kiseki-purpleheart-en.html).
This cartridge has recently been retipped by ESCO and the paperwork is available to any prospective buyer. It's currently mounted on my SME V-12 and has just 30 hours on it since the retip. I must say that it is sounding magnificent. ESCO did a great job. If you're within range of Glasgow you're welcome to come and hear it.
It's being sold with the original wooden box and gold stylus guard. I will also include another clear plastic stylus guard that is a much more secure fit than the original.
I'm pricing this rarest of Kisekis at £1250 including fully insured postage by RM Special Delivery.
