GLANZ MFG 610LX

I have been searching for this uber rare GLANZ cartridge since mid 80´s as I missed my opportunity to purchase one when it was for sale back in the day. I knew its reputation as one of finest cartridges available but I just missed it, young and foolish I was. In the same price category, I bought SHURE V-15V-MR instead.

Now thirty years later I owe one, NOS found in a barren town near the Arctic Circle. It sounds just fantastic out of the box. I am very lucky as this model is so seriously rare.

Well my 610 arrived this morning and it has been getting some play time on the tt81,a little thin so far but highly detailed.
I figure it will need at least 20 hours to start sounding near its best.
To be continued......

Well that didn't take long.
By the second side of second album it has opened up a LOT.
A lot more body and meat and amazing detail.
Very happy so far for $455.

Same here
But I am using the same as my MF300 cart and I see no need right now to change
1.6g.
The mf300 has a range recommendation of 1.5 to 2.0, at 1.6 it tracks perfectly with no issues.
