Eye Candy

Here are a few Koetsu cartridges I brought in the country a few years ago and took some pics of them for 'memories'. They are now with the respective owners.

Koetsu Blue Lace with Diamond Cantilever/Stylus:



Koetsu Coralstone with Diamond Cantilever/Stylus:

Koetsu Tiger Eye with Diamond Cantilver/Stylus:

And this one went to the home of Jack. Green is the color of his college basketball team too.

The Koetsu Jade Platinum:

The guy who bought the Coralstone was so fascinated by it that he actually went out to hunt for a real coralstone rock.

---This thread is truly a visual feast for the eyes. ...Delightful!
Myles & Phil, Bravo! :b

Nice!

---I will admit this in total honesty:
Looking at all those magnificent turntables, tonearms, cartridges, power supplies, executions, ...
truly inspires to set my own turntables and spin those best vinyls.

And even to upgrade! ...Of course. :b

I just found a coral stone like this last week at Rivera Maya (Mexico) - so sorry I did not find the cartridge!

Myles, the Goldmund Reference is really some of the most beautiful pieces ever!!!
What about the mighty Nakamichi TX1000?

---Myles, how come you don't have the TT expert's designation under your username? :b

Myles is way too modest. he is considerably more informed and knowledgable than me about a wide spectrom of info about turntables, vinyl systems, and music in general than me. i may have more experience with top of the heap tt's, arms, etc. and maybe vintage modded tt's.....but experience is different than expertise. and the more i learn, the more i realize how little i know.

we certainly both share considerable passion for tt's and vinyl in general. but he is the professional reviewer and expert.

---Can totally drive some people insane!

A Farewell to Arms?

Unfortunately seems that phono section has only one input (although looks like only two cartridges are mounted)

---Amazing! ...Just a simple rubber string!
