Talisman II cartridge by Sumiko


Hi,

A friend has a NOS Talisman II in its box with all accessories. I have been unable to find any reviews of this cartridge. Has anybody here used the cartridge and, if so, can that person please comment on the quality level and if it is a keeper (primary cartridge is Shelter 301 at moment).

Thanks

If it's what I think it is, the ll should be followed by "B" which means it's the Boron-cantileved model. This was the middle-model, and best bang-for-the-buck in the line. Very popular and highly reviewed around 1985-88. This should beat ANY $500 MSRP MC you can buy today. Line-contact sylus, so tracking angle is important. Output is 0.4mV. Track at 1.8 grams.
