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''.

As a young boy I was most impressed by the writer Erich Maria Remarque. He wrote about soldiers and their willingeness to die for each other. I agreed in principe. The book in question was ''Im Westen nichts neues'' (Nothing new in the West). I will borow the title and extend to known universe: ''nothing new about carts except the price''. Following edgewear advice I also searched for the ''good old kinds''. My newest discoveries are Kiseki Agaat (the ''stone kinds'') and the latest Black wood. The Black wood was meant as ''poor man'' Lapis Lazuli. But the only difference is the body (stone versus wood) and cantilever (diamond versus boron). To me both belong in the same ''category' as FR-7 fz and Ikeda Rex ( the cantileverless kind). |
