Dynavector 10X5 in terrific condition. I'm estimating 250-300 hours use, and it plays fine and still sounds terrific. Stylus is still sharp with little wear (see attached pic taken with my Zipscope). I'm selling because I am using my Empire table with a Denon DL-103 more, and this one was on my second table, which isn't getting much use. It seems a shame to have this cartridge sit relatively unused when someone can be enjoying it. I clean all my albums with a Nitty Gritty RCM, so this cartridge has not been abused by albums in poor condition. The cantilever is perfectly straight. It will come with the original packaging, instructions and hardware, but I can't for the life of me find the stylus guard ... sorry! The Jelco headshell shown in the pictures is NOT included! The cartridge will be removed from the headshell and shipped in its protective case. This cartridge was previously listed and marked as sold, but the buyer backed out of the sale.
Asking $300.00 (new retail is $450.00)
Shipping is $5 in the CONUS. I will not ship outside the US.
