Ok, Unfortunately our house was burglarzied about 10 days ago, they didn't touch the stereo, instead took the easy stuff like iMac, cameras, HDs, and since we have an older DPL 55" TV, that was not under consideration either for the teenage thieves. Anyways, with two kids now, a newborn and a toddler, I just have no time to listen to vinyl, let along having three cartridges. Anyways, so here goes for your consideration: Note all carts comes with OBM except for the Mono that comes with box only...
First, a ZYX Airy 3 X R-100 SB, this is the version that has the silver base, that's an additional $500 or so. List is $3495.
This cart I got for my upgraded vinyl set up of VPI HRX Super Platter, Bill Berndt Custom Plinth and JMW 12.7 arm. Installed about a two months ago, and since then I've been burglarized, car stolen and had a baby born in between. So, as you can see, I've logged maybe 20 hours on it. Anyways, asking $1600for this one.
Second is a Benz Micro ACE SL. I had this on my VPI Classic 1 table for about 6 months, loved it, and I would say it has about 150 hours on it, that's conservative. Anyways, you guys know what this is all about, retails for $900, asking $SOLD.Lastly it's the Benz ACE Mono...Great cart, have about 100 hours on it. This is the older model, not the "S" model. Retailed for $750 back then, asking $475. Not many mono records, but it does make a difference...believe me!
