As Swampie says, you should factor in the cost of rebuiding the cartridge unless it is much less than ten years old and stored properly. Use should also be factored as well as the price of said cartridge. I believe a rebuild is around 1200.00 for Koetsu.
Good or Bad idea?? ??
Hello Audiogoner's,
buying a vintage cartridge like a older koetsu or kiseki or any vintage cartridge, is one taking a risk of having a problem due to environmental issues?? or is a cartridge pretty stable and made to last providing it was handled with the most care. Thanks for your help.
