Dynavector 17D Mark 3 Karat Best Value in the line!

Here is a Dynavector D17 Mark 3 MC cartridge. Please see the photos for the superior cosmetic condition. This cart. was installed 1.5 years ago on a Well Tempered Amadaeus and was just removed in favor of an XV1s. Avery reasonable 400+ hours of play are calculated for this cart. It sounds like new and track like new. The stylus is original and does not show any wear under 100X magnification. I do not have a microscope but do have a 100X lens.

The Karat has long been the "Gem" of the Dynavector line in terms of price to performance ratio. The entire stylus/cantilever is a single 1.7 mm diamond rod. Excellent tonal balance and spooky quit in the grooves, this cart. has .3 mv output so 55db plus is needed in a phono stage gain. 100 ohm loading worked well on this one. Dynavector recommends 30 ohms or more. At $995, these are a real value in the cart. world. At the used asking ,this is a dead on bargain.

I will answer any pertinent questions.

This is a used phono cart. and carries NO warranty of any kind. It will not arrive DOA because it works. I do guarantee no DOA.

Local pick up is OK. If you are local I will even bring it to you.

The cartridge and proper packing will weigh in at 2 lbs boxed. Original packing is included but it will be over boxed for safe shipping.

Paypal users will pay the 2.9% fees they charge me. I much prefer MO or checks ( after they clear).
