Koetsu cartridges. They must be something special.


It seems that quite a number of Audiogoners have Koetsu, or a few of them. Different tables, different arms, different speakers but Koetsu cartridge.

Why ?

I have never even heard Koetsu.

The very idea of matching cartridge and speakers is something that I have always thought of as being correct. And do fine tuning with tubes, starting with phono stage, of course.

Etsuro Urushi..good to know.

No one forces anyone to buy luxury items. Unlike some other things. I have to pay outrageous electrical bills every month, as an example. Now this is hard to walk around, especially if renting. There is a number of people paying $10k+ for cartridges, and custom Brioni suit was about $30k the last time I read about it.

Yeah, of course I meant that some had a few Koetsu cartridges.

They are no longer made. Is there a brand that has a similar sound signature and is quite good, though maybe not as good as better Koetsu ?
