Ortofon Mono CG 25 Di cartridge

Edit | Go Up

This is a famous Ortofon Mono cartridge. This needle is the godfather of all SPU Ortofons and reportedly produced without changed since 1949. The cartridge good for Mono record only and you will have no noise even from the records that you thought were severally scratched. This cartridge is in mint, as “new” condition and it is not even broken-in. It was placed in my tonearm for duration of few hours and then was replaced with another mono needle. More data.

SME M2 - 12" Tonearm with extra accessories

Edit | Go Up

1.0 gram per revolution tungsten weight moving on a precision screw with backlash eliminator, fluid damped lift/lower control, low friction, fully shielded races for both axes, pressure die-cast magnesium headshell with unique collet, Sliding base for tracking adjustment, thin-walled stainless steel tonearm with internal damping, thumbwheel height adjustment. The arm comes with an extras shell and ridiculously expensive (160BP) but very slick implemented (way better then the foolish 3012 kit) silicon damper. In addition the arm will be complimented with the original “older” SME rubber decouplers, not available anymore and unfortunately not furnished with the current M2 predication but quite essential for getting a good sound out of a SME arm. The retail of M2-12 arm without the accessories is $2000

Koprvet “Egg” Tonearm

Edit | Go Up

This is heavily modified Likhnitsky’s Egg tonearm with a custom base for Micros Seiki turntables. This is truly one of the kind arm. More on this arm is here:

Micro-Seiki MAX-282 Tonearm with SM wand

Edit | Go Up

Distance from turntable spindle to arm pivot point: 282mm. The arm in good condition and might be accompanied with an arm board. Have the original boxes, papers, protector, layouts and so on. This is a truly wonderful arm with an insert for the older version of MM cartridges (aka Shure). The arm had DIN output, and employs the active dynamic dumping combined with liquid damping. The arm performs very fine. One of the most distinctive features of MAX-282 is a high horizontal affective mass and use a torsion bar (instead of idiotic, always horribly sounding springs) for VTF setting.

Micro-Seiki Arm Board

Edit | Go Up

Tonearm Board for Micro-Seiki turntables, series RX and SX. It is very heavy, bronze made tonearm board. I do no remember for which arm it has hole, I believe it is Audio-Technica or Ortofone but if you read this add then you know what it is for.

Micro-Seiki air-suspended platform BA-600

Edit | Go Up

This is Micro-Seiki air-suspended platform BA-600 from RX-8000 turntable. The platform in very good condition and will care a hippopotamus is you wish. The air blabber woks perfect and you will not pump air in there each week as you would do with Vibripline. In the picture the platform is in red, myp latform is dark brown, i belive.... Be advised that it heavy like hell, so pick up is greatly encouraged.

Heavy, simple in tuning and maintenance, indestructible Micro Seiki RX-5000 with “improved” platter that is much less ringy then stock version. This turnable can mount up to four tonearms simultaneously.

Koetsu Onyx Platinum Cartridge

Edit | Go Up

I never buy out sell used cartridges but this sucker is too valuable do not use it. This cartridge in is extremely good condition and I would not lie to to you if I say that this cartridge is as good as new. I own it for 6 years and over all that period of time I was TRYING to use it in many different applications. However, I never liked how it sounded and I never actually play music on this cartridge. So, it has negligible amount of hours and it was sitting in my seldomly used “experimental” arm.
