Sumiko Alchemist IIIS High Output Moving Coil very low hours from my collection. Line Contact Stylus (nude) on Sapphire Cantilever. Rarely seen for sale.

Price includes PayPal and free USPS shipping in lower 48 states. This is a fantastic cartridge and very rare on the market. To buy something built like this today would cost well over double or even triple the asking price. I have to thin the herd as I simply have too much of everything and if you keep checking for more of my ads you will see more and more great stuff being listed. I never thought I would sell this cartridge but since my recent move I have not been able to set up any of my vinyl gear. Keep watching my ads because I will be posting some turntables later as well, rare ones like a Technics SL-M3 (the king of linear tracking p-mounts), another Sony PS-X75, at least one Technics SP-15 system, at least one Mitsubishi LT-30, and who knows what else? I've been collecting rare and desirable gear for decades to be honest, and major life changes are forcing me to let go of the collection. I also have rare and highly desirable NEC A-10II integrated amps (2 of them), NEC-A7 integrated (1 of those), Nakamichi CR-4A (2 of those), Nakamichi SR-4A Stasis receivers (2 of those, both with remote, one with box), Nakamichi CR-7A (2 of those, both with remote, one modified with high end opamps and metallized polypropylene coupling caps), a ~60lb and UBER rare Philips DFA-1000 integrated with remote, this is the same as the Marantz PM-95, a mint Philips CD-80 (matches the DFA-1000) with original remote, manual, and transport locking screws (there are 2 of these listed on eBay right now at well over $900), a rare Sony TAE-80ES preamp with balanced input/ouput and remote control, modified by The Upgrade Company, a Classe CP-50 with remote, and so on...

Getting back to the cartridge. It's been tested just before posting the ad and of course works as new. I tried to get good images of the stylus and anyone who has tried this knows how difficult this is. There is almost no wear on the stylus at all. I bought this used and the original seller had stated less than 50 hours, I have only put maybe another 3-5 hours on it just mostly for testing purposes. I have so many other cartridges and my preference is for cartridges that track lightly, so I have become very fond of my ADC collection which gets the most use.

I guarantee the unit as described but no guarantees beyond that, and no return. Please be sure you want this before you hit that BIN button. The lucky winner of this will be very happy I am sure of it. There is a set of mounting screws taped to the bottom of the case as well.

Also note the serial number which is recorded to prevent people from trying to return a different, defective unit with claims it never worked. Sad to say that we have to take extra measures to protect ourselves these days.

Just look at the specs!

Good luck and check my other ads.
