Bought this in July from Slav (mac72) here on the Wam to use with my second turntable. Now I don't have a second turntable any longer I don't need the Benz cartridge. I used this cartridge for around 10 hours mounted in a SME V (also now sold) so it's in pretty much the same condition it was when I purchased it. £625 including UK postage (RMSD) - will post to EU (ask for cost). Here are the details from the original listing:
"it seems my plan to install second tonearm to my TT is not going to happen , DV507 has a new home now so Benz Wood SL I bought from Expert Stylus is for sale .
I bought this cartridge in ex-demo condition with approx. 28 hours of use , I have put another few but no more than 10 while my Cadenza Bronze went back to Denmark ."
"Cartridge has 38 hours from New, possibly less , it wasn't re-built , I have an e-mail from ESCo to confirm this if anyone interested in this cartridge .
I'm not very good at describing sound am afraid , bass is a bit less deeper than Cadenza Bronze hence it might be described as more detailed , possibly there is more to come as Benz requires 40 hours run in time ."
