Audio Technica ART1 MC cartridge. Swapsies.

Bit of a lump at 9g for my SME3009 and a bit too moving coily for an SME 3009 too!. Someone said the stock armtubes too resonant for moving coils. Will consider a swap for v.good MM (or nice light MC that erm, works with a 3009). About 6.5g body weight ideally.

Gladly swap back if not happy.

You could get this retipped if needs be by expert sylus, but sounds/looks fine and is something of a rare classic. These were £800 in 1989!!! - and this one seems to have had light use. If I had ready cash these days I'd keep it myself. Difficult to price really so I'll swap instead! It also saves me the legwork of buying a wrong cart for the SME or worrying about a reverse payment by Paypal!

In excellent condition review below. Micro stylus, but looks in v.good nick, mint packaging, not expecting too much, as long as its minty and loves a 3009...
Don't be shy. I could fleabay this, but I'd rather not.

Interested..but nothing to swap!
Pm me with ballpark cash valuation?

 

ART 1 swap

Hi, I have several MM cartridges which would work well on the 3009 arm for swaps.
Take your pick,
Shure M97 era4 stylus
Shure M75 EJ NOS Shure stylus
Rega Elis
ADC XLM mk3 with NOS stylus.

All in great condition with the NOS styli being never used.

See what you think?

Kind regards Paul
