Supex SDX-1100r Phono Cartridge

@rauliruegas 

You are 100% right.  I own one, I bought it as an impulse buy, NOS, at a record show back in the late 90's.  It absolutely beat the Lyra Lydian Beta that was my primary cartridge at the time. I believe from my research at the time that this model was never made available to the US retail market.

@psychoticreaction, if you can get your hands on one, I'd also say go for it.

Dear @vinylzone : Good that you enjoyed that kind of quality cartridge level.

If you still have and the cartridge needs to be re-tipped my recomendation is that instead to stay with Ruby cantilever go for a Boron cantilever, I think will performs even better.

Btw, in those all times when  showed up in the market ( 1981 ) the SDX1100R was the below/one step from the Supex top of the line that was the SDX 1100D. The price in Japan was 70K Yens for the R and 280K Yens for the D.

Both in a totally different league that any other Supex model.

Thanks for the info @rauliruegas  and @vinylzone.  I'm going to keep a lookout for the cartridge.  I'm guessing they don't come up often.
