Re: Ceramic and Crystal cartridge specs.
it has been a long busy year, but i have some good news.
i found a good ceramic cart for a low cost.
however, with low cost comes a few caviats.
1. the cart has flat pins, not round, so requires new
lugs on the pickup leads.
2. the cart is glued into the head, which makes
it a task to install without putting in new leads.
it is, P-169D Arista 1669 Astatic 419 Phono Cartridge
with Stylus EV 5573D BSR SC8H-2
i got it mail order from Scottsdale Az for such a low price
i went ahead and bought 2. the same source also sells lugs. i dont know if the
vintage radio policy allows me to tell the business
details? but they do accept postal money orders
which i like, as i do not use credit cards.
finally installed it, and it works well. had to clean my
old lps to get good tracking, but dont have a scale.
