MYSTERY DYNAVECTOR KARAT 23R
I got this MC a few years ago, NOS, and just mounted it. I can't really identify it.
• It doesn't have a badge on the side saying "KARAT 23R" like all the pics on Vinyl Engine.
• It has a small badge on one side, only saying "Dynavector".
• But "KARAT 23R" was written by hand on the box.
• VE says it has a Diamond cantilever but it's clearly Ruby-red, and has the triangular cross-section.
• VE says it has a "super elliptical" stylus, but under a 30X scope it looks VERY thin and has parallel sides. It looks almost identical, at 30X, to the Shure Micro-Ridge on my V15-V.
Can anyone tell me what I have?
Also, I got a Dyna 20B Type 2 High-Output MC at the same time, also NOS. Any opinions on it? I've only heard a couple of Hi-Output MCs I like... but haven't tried many. Nor this one yet.

Hope no harm done apart from material losses.By sheer luck. They broke in a 4 a.m., when my wife and I would normally be sleeping. They came prepared to kill. But it was a very rare night we were out at an after-hours jam, so they left the weapons behind as needless weight to carry back. No guns or anything costly to replace — just a sawed-off short-handled Shovel for smashing my skull (kill the man first) and two Machetes for decapitating my wife if the noise of my skull crunching beside her woke her up. If she eluded the first machete because she'd been wakened and ran, the second was for chasing her down. I've often read in these and similar pages that "I'd kill for a (fill in the blank)" — I always read them with a jaundiced eye. |
Chakster Sure, i bought mine in 2018 when i started this dynavector thread. My first Dyna was DV-30A, my second was DV-23RS MR SUPER, next one was DV KARAT 17DS and finally KARAT 17D2 last year. |
