Any Recommendations For Line-Contact P-Mount Cartridge?

Dear @sleepwalker65 : But, do you bougth it?  or only " came close ".

R.

I own several p-mount turntables. Best I’ve got is an elliptical stylus right now, and that’s not good enough for me. 

SoundSmith makes modern day equivalents to the P-mount B&O MMC series of phono cartridges and also they can re-tip the original B&Os, so you can end up with a line contact stylus on a ruby cantilever.  Check their website.

Andante P-76 if you can find one.  Outstanding cartridge.

I have this cartridge on an old Denon turntable, and it’s fantastic!

I thought B&O used a proprietary cartridge mounting system?

You will not find a new p-mount with that type of stylus. These are the few p-mount cartridges that are available. You should pass on that table if you want a better type of cartridge!!

You may be correct about the B &O P mount system, but I think it is the standard headshell adapter method that is unique for the B&O. without the headshell adapter it is a normal p mount . But please do check to make sure I am correct on this, before you go ahead with any purchase, obviously. SoundSmith is your best source of info and products if you want an LC stylus.

Problem with P-mount, whether it be B&O or the standard type, is that the connection between the end of the tonearm and the cartridge body depends entirely and only upon the fit of the signal-carrying pins to the female receptor.  I don't see how that can be rigid enough to prevent minute movements of the cartridge body during play, which would be a BAD thing.  Perhaps that's why P-mount or the B&O system didn't catch fire, although B&O persisted.

Fortunately the vintage turntables I bought used (6 of them, two of which are linear tracking) all came with the screw that secures the cartridge in the tonearm. The humble Audio-Technica AT-85e and others from that line include replacement screws.
