Currently listening to early 80's Pickering XSV/4000 on my Technics 1200 GR. I bought mine from Russian time traveler, NOS condition. It's excellent!
How old is your cartridge?
We read and hear about cartridges that are ancient that people are still using, and we read about others replacing their cartridge after a few years because the cartridge is spent.
How old is your cartridge that you use regularly?
I know one person still spinning a Shure V15 Type II Improved with a stylus that is probably about 30 years old. The cartridge itself was purchased by the guy new in the early 70’s.
My cartridge, a Linn Arkiv B, is 18 or 19 years old and it’s definitely tired by now.
Thanks all for responding!
