Glanz moving magnet cartridges


Hi,

I have just acquired an old Glanz G5 moving magnet cartridge. However, I cannot find out any details about this or the Glanz range or, even the company and its history.

Can anyone out there assist me in starting to piece together a full picture?

Any experiences with this or other Glanz's; web links; set up information etc would be warmly received. Surely someone knows something!

Thanks in hope

Dear Dgob, Not sure if Vetterone will react on your invitation. This will depend on his sense for humor. That is to say if he likes the Balkan kind. I now understand why you are so desperate to convince all of us about the superiority of your G7. For such kind of money some are willing to kill. Meanwhile I received the Italian packet.
The Krell MC 100 looks fantastic and as a twin brother or suster of the Miyabi Standard. Takeda also produced the same cart for Levinson (MLC10) and Cello. My advice: look for those. The Sony XL 88 looks poor in comparison but this regards
only the looks. Thuchan however is very fond of this cart and ensured me big suprise. I wrote to the Italian seller that I received his carts and now hope that he will also say something about the MFG 61.

Regards,
Hi Nandric,

Hopefully, your Glanz wont let down the performance standards set by your other new acquisitions.

I look forward to hearing.

As always...
Dear Dgob&Vetterone (?), There is a problem with 'my'
Glanz. The box is from the MFG 61 but inside the box
there is a 'new animal': Glanz 1 G -55 a. I always hope to see in
whatever box something better than the markings suggest
but this time I have no idea what to think.
Can you help?
Hi Nandric,

That is no small disappointment. The Glanz 1G-55R is a notably lower end Glanz and I think the seller needs to refund your money. Maybe it is a genuine mistake and he has simply boxed the items wrongly.

Fingers crossed and let us know.

As always...
Dear Dgob, Thanks for your worry but I wrote 'my Glanz' with quatation marks. I was in what lawyer call 'pre contractual' or 'negotiation' state of affair. It took me
some time but I learned from the Dutch how to negotiate.
Ie if a Dutchman agrees with your price direct than your negotiation capabilities are (very)questionable.
So again thanks for your worry as well as for the warning.

Regards,
