In Reply to: A mere $12,000 for the new Grado top of the line cart. posted by Rick W on August 2, 2017 at 16:15:35:
In the Positive Feedback piece linked, Bob Levi says that the cartridge has the lowest effective mass of any on the planet. Yet it is made from wood which is some of the densest known and has coils made from 24 karat gold (I found that out elsewhere). Yet it is supposed to have low mass?
Anyway guys, no need to worry overmuch about the $12K pricing. Grado are bringing out a cheapo partner next year called the Aeon. It is almost being given away at only $6K.
