Hello, The only good thingt that the death of records brings us is cheap second hand analog turntables, arms and cartridges. I have been offered recently an Oracle Delphy model I, a Sumiko The Arm MDC800 and a Koetsu Onix cartridge by about $1500 USD. The arm is perfect, the cartridge has a serial number 82011 and seems in reasonable condition, and the turntable has some scratches but the bearing and motor are in good condition. The counterweight of the arm is type X. I would like to receive opinions about this set up and its value. Please remember that hi-fi costs twice the USA prices in Europe. The Koetsu is a short type, not the long type of the first Onix Koetsus. Do you thing that it is worth replacing the diamond with a van dan Hull stylus? Thanks ........................................................ Francisco A. F. Fraga Dept. Physics Univ.
