Pro-ject Essential ii Audio Technica At120e Stylus With Signet Tk3ea Cartridge - $299 - (Pueblo, CO)

Only opened and tested to see if working. But replaced the original ortofon om5e cartridge to a signet tk3ea. Signet was audio technicas higher end of cartridges back in the 70's and 80's with superior build quality and better sound than todays audio technica cartridges. Added an audio technica at120e stylus. Read about this cartridge and stylus. Both are very nice set ups and they go together so well. A huge upgrade from the original ortofon om5e. Since the effective tonearm mass is only 8.9 grams on this turntable. Audio technica styli with the higher compliances are a good match. With this signet cartridge these styli audio technica at120e, at120eb, at440ml, at440mla, at440mlb, at150mlx can all be installed if you wish at a later time. The cartridge alignment will be done and it will be ready after the tracking force is set and anti skate weight is installed upon delivery. It would be a good 20 a 30 dollar upgrade to purchase a 75 gram counter weight to have a weight that sits closer to the tonearm pivot. I have the link to an ebay seller who has the right part. I will send it if asked. Plus pro-ject makes a nice acryl-e it acrylic platter for around 129 dollars. The combination of all that would make one ultra nice entry audiophile turntable. The dust cover is flawless and plinth is perfect. Also the tonearm is mint. All parts, chord, belt, and power plug adaptors are included. Packaged in original box. Any questions just ask. Thanks
