Koetsu


Anybody know anything about some of the websites that are offering
new Koetsu's at very much reduced prices. I realize there won't be the warrenty you get in the USA. Are these cartridges OK or are they "B" stock.
Anybody bought one? Any problems. I believe these are coming from the
orient. Possible fakes??

Though I have always loved and owned Koetsus in the past,there is something suspiciously "silly" about the newer models.It seems that as of now,Koetsu has gone overboard with the "stone type" body housings,and their apparent cache in how the particular body affects the rediculous pricing."I know,I know" that they are "real pretty",but like the dumb handbag industry(see Coach and Louis Vuitton)the price for "pretty" is getting almost laughable!Talk to me about cantilever material,and design,or purity of coils,or magnetics.NOT cosmetics!!

I am still aware that these are superior designs,but my way of justifying a product is to see "definitive" design parameters,and details OTHER than some "fancy schmancy" body material.

Perplexed,stupified,and bewildered!!
