Original Ortofon Windfeld, one of the best cartridges the company has built. Very refined, detailedand layered. This cartridge has some of the best bass response I have heard.
I bought the cartridge with 100 hours on it, and played it another 75 as I have a Denon DL 304 I use for casual listening. When I first got it I had Andy Kim inspect the stylus and it shows no signs of wear. Cantilever is straight, suspension is high, and it tracks my test records just fine.
Now the Replicant 100 is an exacting stylus that requires careful set up. The tungsten body is heavy, this cartridge weighs 13 grams. Compliance is medium and I use it on an Acos arm and vinyl is cleaned on an ultrasonic machine.
Does not come with factory box, or stylus guard, but will be well packed as I have shipped several cartridges.
Originally sold for $4095
Sell For. $1200
Recently a dream cartridge has come for sale. If it sells before this one I will pull it from the market, as the Windfeld is one of my favorite cartridges.
