I've used a FoodSaver vac-u-seal machine to seal a cart. in its factory box. Once sealed a syringe needle connected to a hose was used to introduce dry Argon into the sealed bag and then the bag was resealed to close off the hole from the needle. Probably over kill, but it did keep any O2 from the rubber bits in the cart.
Best way to store cartridges?
I've got a Denon DL-103R that I keep as a back-up cartridge. I'm considering having the the cantilever / stylus replaced, as well as having it mounted / potted in a wood body. However, as I mentioned, it's my back-up. I may not use it for years.
What's the best way to store cartridges for the long run? Air-tight container? Displace the air with N2 (not sure an easy way to do this)? Any other considerations?
