for the KARAT 17D mk 2


I have to agree with all of the comments of the previous review.

This is a great cartridge,VERY low surface noise.


Product Weakness: Doesn't last forever(But I'd say that about every new cartridge)
Product Strengths: Hard to find at the price I'd like to pay.(But I'd say that about every new component)
