Dear syntax, I am sure you tried many but what about this ''9
series''? Your sample looks certainly ''exotic'' but deed it
sound as such? You don't need to spare your Serbian friend
if you have some critical remarks; I am used to (grin).
Anyone familiar with Ikeda 9 series (cantileverless kind) MC cartridges?
Impressed by the series FR-7 kinds , more in particular the FR-7 fz, I wanted to try some of the
9 C(?) kinds. I was able to buy the 9 C, mk2 but was not able to find much info about other
versions. There are later versions so I am interested in their possible ''added values''.

Saburo, I need to check for you by my comrade Don (Griffiths) but he informed me that ''Needle clinic'' (?) can fix those 9 series cartridges. Anyway this retipper can provide a new stylus. Considering the fact(?) that all those ''members'' of the series have the same construction your ''Rowland'' sample should be ''the same''. |
@syntax here is a pic from one .... (rare I think) Is that Luxman PD-444 platter? |
During my recent visit to Tokyo, I saw at least seven or eight different Ikeda cartridges for sale as new at Yodibashi camera, the massive supermarket for electronics in the Akihabara section of Tokyo. I had heard of none of these cartridges before (except in posts by nandric), and now I am reading about them again on this thread. They were all in the $2000 and up price range, by the way. |
