I'm helping a friend with his Fisher console. It has a Perpetuum-Ebner changer which I have been working on. Several shafts were frozen in their bearings, but that's all done now.The problem is the phono cartridge. It's a Pickering XV-15/400E, and the stylus is broken off the cantelever. Too bad, that was a nice cartridge.
I just did a Google search with no luck. The Stanton 681 series will fit that body, but I'm out of date on current models. Does anyone have specs on the 680AL cart. I can get a replacement for those.
The other possibility is a Shure or AT model.
I'd like to keep the cost down and the cartridge needs to track at around 1.5-3 grams.
