Audioquest 404


Does anyone know anything about this cartridge? This was mounted on a PT6 arm I aquired recently, but stylus/cantilever are missing. I'm wonderring if it's worth the effort to have it restored...
Thanks 'goners

My friend had one a while ago.It got pretty good reviews at the time.We found it a bit on the "thin" side,but it DEFINITELY is worth a retip if it can be had cheaply!
Good luck.
I used to own one of these and liked it, but that was years ago. Bought one in 1989. Do you know which version you have? There was a 404i-MH and a 404i-L. I think I still have my cartridge box and will check the specs if you wish.
From the looks of the pictures on http://www.cartridgedb.com/ (thanks mofi!) it appears to the 404B. No pictures for the 404i & 404i HM...Any re-tip suggestions besides Soundsmith?
