Did I do a good thing or not?

Dover, (and sorry all to go off-topic):

...the Audioplan silver phono cable from the 80s you mentioned once in a thread...is that an SAEC Audioplan cable, says super X-Wire on the sheath?

A Denon 309 arm would also be a good choice.

 

Strange, I was convinced it was a high mass arm more suitable for the Denon 103 or hard cartridges

Lp gear shows that cartridge to be discontinued, how were you able to buy one? I own the 97xe and like it a lot. Sold my extra, regrettably. 

Yes, Audioguy, I was just informed about the discontinuation of the stylus. Yesterday, I ordered a Jico SAS/S VN5MR to replace it.

Much to my surprise, my new cartridge (sans stylus) arrived today, in perfect shape.. Pretty quick, all the way from New York, New York.

Shure was really trying to make a statement with this cartridge and its packaging. Verry luxurious.

Can't wait for the stylus!

Dan
