Headshell mounted cartrige storage/protection
The K-5 cases are available on EBay and HiFiDo (under Accessories but be quick to pounce) and you can sometimes find the 10 cartridge holders which were made by the company that originally made the K-5 for Fidelity Research.The internal foam is ve... 
Sony PS-X9
I have not bought anything heavy from Aleado (Japan Yahoo)....but I have bought many cartridges and other items through them and their packing and safety of the goods is simply the best I have ever seen.They send out literally thousands of items a...

Interesting Schubert....Maybe it's System Synergy as Frogman says.....?Do you have Tube or SS amplification?

Love it Frogman.......👌I could read your descriptions all day long.....🗣I’m off to buy some more cartridges to keep your contributions coming..

For over 10 years I've been a big fan of the Japanese Victor Company and their design engineering 'know-how' in the 'Golden Age' of analogue.It started when I bought one of their vintage TT-81 DD Turntables followed by their top-of-the-line TT-101...
