TIME'S CELEBRATION: ORTOFON FIRST CENTURY ANNIVERSARY ! ! ! ! !

With the appropriate phono preamp the low output is not an issue - have used the 30 year MC70 with only .125mV with no issue what so ever.  

Inquired this morning about availability - no news about this yet - pricing predicted to be $12K - E10K  - Looking forward to this one.  

Good Listening

Neo - you have a excellent Phono stage 😄🎶👍 - and no with the right amplifier any low output MC will shine.

Your B2B-1 is a boil down from this one

I fully agree the ZYX Cartridges are very special - excellent sound - even though the plastic body display a different perspective 

Good Listening

005  (are you in her majesty's secret service :-) )

Toshiba 2SK170/2SJ74 - I still have some left - hoping that Linear Systems will get their act together and figure out how to make these before I run out :-)

Good Listening

AMG - a 2MRed is $100 - the Quintet series is very high performance to price ratio - yes the pinnacle 100 year celebration offering is expensive - and to the ones that wants is most likely worth the price of admission.  Ortofon offers a Century Concorde @ $550 with a shibata shaped stylus.  Your moniker is AMG the premium souped up offerings of Mercedes Benz - I’m truly puzzled by your remarks 

good listening
