Very low hours, perfect condition London (Decca) Reference phono cartridge. Original owner, always used in a non-smoking environment.
The London (Decca) Reference phono cartridge is the top of the London line of direct-scanning (cantilever-less) phono cartridges. One of the most dynamic and realistic sounding cartridges currently available. This cartridge normally retails in the US at $5000.00.
A high-mass tonearm is recommended to get the best out of this low-compliance cartridge. The provision to damp the arm is desirable though not a strict requirement. A fine-line stylus contour provides excellent tracking.

At my asking price I will waive 3% PayPal surcharge. I will entertain all serious offers but low-ball offers will be politely declined.
I welcome world-wide buyers but please note the additional requirements:
I prefer a US trans-shipment address for non-US buyers. All shipping, taxes, Customs and duty from the trans-shipment address on are the responsibility of the buyer.
I will ship directly to any world address served by the US Postal Service, FEDEX or UPS, however all liability for non-delivery and all shipping and import charges are the responsibility of the buyer.
Insurance is strongly recommended but must be paid by the buyer.
I ship promptly on clearance of payment. Please view my feedback and deal in confidence.
