Soundsmith SG-410 strain gauge cartridge/preamp system plus spare, brand new line contact stylus (SGS-6). The stylus is held magnetically to the body so are user replaceable, they just "clip" in.
Glowing reviews of "entry level" SG-200 version here and here. User review of SG-410 here.
The SG-410 is a remote controlled, 2 input (SG cartridge plus 1 line level) preamp, retailing here for £7625, plus I think about £600 for additional SGS-6 stylus.
The stylus in the cartridge is also a top-of-the-range line contact SGS-6, with at most about 150 hours on it.
My SG-410 preamp is in ebony, so is essentially black, though it does have a lovely brown grain on the side (by far the best finish, looks a LOT nicer than some of the wood finished they do!).
Very rare opportunity to own a unique product. It sounds totally different to any MC cartridge you will hear, and tracks better than any one I have owned. Will work in any arm too.
I am looking for £4500.
I have the (large!) original box and packing, and wooden box for cartridge, so could be posted. Welcome to audition and collect from Chester.
Pictures to follow soon...
