Demo Windfeld Ortofon Cart at Musicdirect


Those in the cart market, there is a demo Windfeld for $2795.  Talked to Danny there - said it was a return from a customer and has minimal use - would come w/ full mfr warranty.   I would've bought, but went with a used Etna instead. Sounds like a good deal - those interested should enquire with MD.

I use a Winfield for my every day cartridge....it’s very good, but setup is critical. Be very precise in the azimuth adjustment....it can make or break the sound. You also should experiment with loading...(I use 1000 ohms, but you might like something different.) The Etna is better but at a much higher cost...   There is a new Winfield that sounds very, very similar....though there is a bit better dynamics in the new one.
